Rising Stars: Meet Joon of MARIETTA


Today we’d like to introduce you to Joon

Joon, we appreciate you taking the time to share your story with us today. Where does your story begin?
I got by Joon I’m 28 from San Bernardino California. My family moved to Georgia after the man I call my father passed in 2001. I first really got in to music because my brother was a krump dancer back in the Tommy the clown days. I started making beats in 2014-2015 after I met my brother 732halo he really put me on to it and I was always fascinated how how things are made so making beats just came naturally. And that’s pretty much it

We all face challenges, but looking back would you describe it as a relatively smooth road?
It’s been alright. I few run ins with the police, losing equipment and what not. It’s really nothing people before haven’t dealt with so I keep what I’ve been taught about the world in mind as a young black man

Thanks for sharing that. So, maybe next you can tell us a bit more about your work?
Im a producer/engineer and I also make rugs for run
What sets me apart is the people around me they push me to do better and be also in my game and allot of people don’t have that.
I’m most proud of how far me and my brothers have made it despite all the set backs

What sort of changes are you expecting over the next 5-10 years?
Hopefully artists start seeing more from streaming and get back to having fun with the music. This also gotta be tough stuff is getting kind of crazy
