Artist Detailed Info: Amor Jones

Aaron “Amor” Jones isn’t the typical rapper chasing fame and fortune. Amor Jones makes music from the heart; he would be writing music even if there was no such thing as a rap career.
Born and raised in Columbus, Ohio, Jones began writing rhymes at the age of 14, shortly after his grandmother passed away. Writing was like therapy.
Less than a year later, at 15, Jones would construct his first full song. This lead to a full pursuit of all things hip-hop. While his passion was undeniable, Jones’ friends were skeptical.
“I was told in school that I’ll never be famous because I don’t rap about crack,” Jones remembers with a smile.
Soon before graduating from high school, Amor Jones released Epic Failure. Despite the title, Jones’ first official mixtape turned out to be a success. MySpace Hip-Hop named Epic Failure one of the hottest of Summer 2009 along with Drake’s So Far Gone, Nicki Minaj’s Beam Me Up Scotty, and 50 Cent’s War Angel LP.
Now residing in outside of Los Angeles, Jones is pursuing music full time and standing out in a marketplace crowded with wannabe rappers.
“For me, it’s all about authenticity. I don’t lie in my raps. My music is a direct reflection of my life. I think that’s why people like it, because they feel it. They can relate to it. That’s what it’s all about it,” says Jones.
Now, it’s just a matter of introducing Amor Jones to more and more listeners. With a strong online presence and awareness of the importance of live shows, soon enough everybody will be relating to Amor Jones.
