It was only a few years ago that Boston native recording artist GJ was scheduled to work with some of music industry's biggest artists, managers, and producers. The R&B artist, who has drawn musical inspiration from the likes of Michael Jackson, Stevie Wonder, Donell Jones and Jay-Z to name a few, was well on his way to launching a successful production career but something didn't feel right to him. A destined encounter with one of his favorite music producers, Rodney Jerkins, would later cause GJ to put his projects on hold and set him on a completely different course. Jerkins, who has produced some of Christian music's biggest artists, unknowingly reminded GJ of the need to be sold out to Christ first before embarking on his many music projects. After 10 years of producing tracks, this decision would prove to be the turning point in GJ's young music career. Less than a year later, God would begin to transform this talented singer/songwriter/producer into one of 2008's most promising solo Christian artist. GJ soon thereafter began recording tracks for his forthcoming album, The Debut. Still relatively uncut, he would feature the singles "Twenty4 Hrs" and "Did You Know" at a performance in the summer of 2007, when close to 400 hundred youth gathered in the main sanctuary of Eagle Heights Church in Revere, MA for the concert segment of their REACH Night extravaganza. GJ was one of the featured Gospel artists that night and would be at the same venue later that Fall with over 500 in attendance. On both nights, not one person in the building was left sitting when GJ took the stage. God's use of his gifts that night left GJ overwhelmed when 300 youths gave their hearts to Christ at the end of the night; leaving GJ on fire to reach the lost for Christ. The events would also confirm that GJ had a hit record on his hands. He was soon thereafter invited to perform at The Lion's Den and other venues and was asked repeatedly when and where his album would be available. GJ began to put some serious time toward completing his first album with original tracks produced by GJ himself; making him not just one of the most buzzworthy new Christian recording artists but one of the most talented upcoming producers in the game. The first single "Twenty4 Hrs" is a slamming dance track while the second single "Goodbye" is a smoothed out certified hit record. GJ's album, appropriately named The Debut, is scheduled for release January 15, 2009.
