Heard on records with Kendrick Lamar, Freddie Gibbs, Mikkey Halsted and Kidz In The Hall, BJ The Chicago Kid is becoming a buzzing Soul sensation, who's upbringing and style meshes well with Hip Hop.
Dreams. They provide us with a goal set, a perspective of where we are in life and often, a smile that moves us forward. In the case of BJ The Chicago Kid, dreams may be what kept him alive.
Growing up in the notorious Southside of Chicago, BJ was exposed to the glamour of what can be and, of course, the everyday occasion of gang violence and what would never be.
With major collaborations already under his belt with the likes of Mary J. Blige, Toni Braxton, Mary Mary, Mario, Musiq Soulchild, Snoop Dogg and Kendrick Lamar, just to name a few, BJ made the choice to live out his dreams and they have carried him to Los Angeles. His heart will always lie in Chicago.
