Jim B Dot was born in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, better known as The Badlands, but raised in Poughkeepsie, New York , better known as Power Kingdom. He currently resides in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania.

It all started in Poughkeepsie, New York. He started off writing poetry then it later evolved into rap at around the age of 16. At that time, He was apart of a group called Big Mada (May.duh). There were 3 artists, DLO (Darnell Sanchez), CK-UNO (Christopher Kidd) and back then, Jim B Dot was called Smurf Da Geniuz. He got Smurf Da Geniuz because his mother always called him Smurf. The “Da Geniuz” part came from his rap partner DLO because of the vocabulary he would use in his raps.They also called themselves, The Kazziano’s, in which they all had different names. DLO was Dr. Edward Kazziano. CK-UNO was Ben Kazziano and he was Jimmy Bosco Kazziano.
After 12 years in Poughkepsie, New York, he moved back to Philadelphia and continued his musical ambition of becoming a known lyricist. He dropped his first solo project, Spoken Wordz. Spoken Wordz was about his childhood and his upbringing, which included features by DLO and Jane “Chainsaw” Doe. About a year later, He dropped his second project, From Tha Kingdom 2 Tha Badlandz. That album was about his transition from Poughkeepsie, New York to Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. That had features from M-Dot, Lazy, Yung Reek and Show Da Blaza.

During the years of dropping Spoken Wordz and From Tha Kingdom 2 Tha Badlandz he had tagged up with M-Dot and they formed, The Dot Boyz. They never really released an Album but later on in the years they would have 2 mixtapes dropped by Variety The Analyzer, The Dot Boyz Volume 1 and The Dot Boyz Volume 2. During this period, Jim B Dot was born.

Growing out of Smurf Da Geniuz, he decided it was time to change his rap name and so, Jimmy Bosco Kazziano would be his new rap name. Since that name was too long, Jim B Dot was created.

All while making music he was doing online battling on rap boards such as, Da Tunnel Battling Board, Rap Elevated Battling Board, Rap Dome Battling Board & Many More. In these boards, he made a name for himself all over the world but more heavy in UK. He has won tournaments and championships. It is because of these boards and his battling, where he would meet Krazie from NPS. Jim would later become a member of NPS.

Ever since hooking up with NPS, (Krazie, Trenzoner & Crystal Cruz) this is when he really took rapping serious. They started doing live performances at Cappy’s Bar & Grille Open Mic Tuesdays in the Northeast Section of Philadelphia. They went every night and tore the house down. Their very first show outside of the open mic was at Mutt’s Airbrush & Supply Store on South Street. After the Open Mic stopped, They really didn’t do anything, until he decided that he will become the Host on Tuesdays and re-open the Open Mic. And So he Did! After the first week, he had Open Mic filled with artists. This is where he will meet Variety The Analyzer, whom has dropped over 10 or more of Jim B Dot's very own mixtapes. He will also end up meeting Beno Ridez. During this time period, NPS performed at The Trocadero alongside, Bobby Corson & Dr3w but Jim B Dot will go on to perform at, not only The Trocadero, but also The TLA, by himself! 

Jim B Dot would later be picked up by Tru7 Entertainment. With Tru7, Jim B Dot has released his 'Own Zone' mixtape. He is currently working on an E.P.
