Influenced by Common and Nas, Jooce a recruiter for the US Army started out as a poet before rap ultimately became his passion. With little money to put towards college, he enlisted into the Military 2 weeks after graduation high school in July of 2012. Having to travel a lot with little time to pursue hiphop, he was lucky enough to come across a soldier with a recording studio in his barracks. Since then, his processes, inspirations, and creativity have given him the balance he needs to continue serving with honor.
