About Serius Jones
Known for his magnetic personality, witty realism, incredible wordplay and distinctive voice, Serius Jones is planting his seed in the music industry. The New Jersey born emcee is set to unleash his distinctive sound onto the world. His repertoire includes obliterating unsuspecting victims in lyrical battles and cultivating ground-breaking music.

After twelve consecutive victories for high stakes rap battles, Jones captured The Fight Klub’s AllHipHop.com 2005 Battle Championship and cash purse by defeating the reigning Fight Klub champ in spectacular fashion. This was a wake up call to the new generation of emcees, and to the music industry as a whole.

Jones discovered the power of his words and true talent for captivating a crowd while huddled in playful neighborhood ciphers. After entering a freestyle battle as a dare, Jones caught the eye of now multi-platinum producer Needlz, who noted the young emcee’s insatiable passion, broad appeal, and unparalleled charisma. Needlz decided to support Serius’ talent with production resources, however, already having a tumultuous life, he was incarcerated temporarily derailing his plans for success.

After his release, Jones became relentless in his approach to breaking into the music industry. Setting out to develop the dimension of his unique sound, he collaborated with platinum producer Needlz (Ludacris, 50 Cent, Game, Young Buck, Cassidy), Buckwild (Jay-Z, Notorious B.I.G, BIG L) and many others. “Serius is an amazing artist to work with”, Needlz beams. “He is a funny, charismatic, approachable guy that is always coming up with new ideas and concepts that the average person would never think of. It’s rare to work with someone that has a personality so transparent through their music”.

Officially signed to Ludacris' Disturbing Tha Peace / Def Jam Recordings in January 2007 Serius Jones continued building his vision day by day, as his fan-base expands within the “Life Is Serius” movement. After the label Was dropped from DefJam, Jones was released and begun flooding the internet with videos, mixtapes and even a short film entitled “Life Is Serius,” an epic journey through his vigorous life. With music featuring 2 Chainz, T-Pain, Bobby V and more, its clear that the industry has taken notice of Jones abilities.

Having been featured on BET's "Rap City" three times, MTV's "Made", "Direct Effect" twice, "Fight Klub", and his own special on Fuse Tv "The Mixdown", Serius Jones has become a household name and face to millions. In 2012 after a long hiatus and much doubt, Serius returned to the battle culture he once helped establish on mainstream television and defeated the top contender Charlie Clips in a heated performance at "Summer Madness 2." After the controversy amidst his return on "SM3", the culture has been teeming and anxiously awaiting his next performance on the main stage.
