Growing up in Columbus, Ohio Job lived in an unstable household and fell victim to the allure of the streets. After making a series of unwise choices and running into trouble with the law, Job’s friend took him to visit a music recording studio. On that fateful day, Job fell in love with music, and his life took a new direction and course. He only wanted to hang out in the music studio instead of hanging out in the streets. Job developed an incredible desire to learn the music business from the ground up. It is this experience that inspired him to create Heart of Job Foundation in order to give children and young adults the opportunity to turn their lives around through music. Heart of Job provides kids the chance to learn real-life skills and steer their futures in a positive direction. Job feels blessed that his passion for music and uplifting his community has come to fruition through his foundation. As Heart of Job grows, Job is determined and set on expanding into other states and countries, and developing new programs to empower youth domestically and globally.
