Manchester's very own Joseph Irekponor professionally known as JOEY X is firstly a fan of the art of music, which is evident by the records he produces. Blending hip-hop with R&B and occasionally experimenting with Afrobeats to create alternative sounds and infectious melodies. To put it simply, JOEY X makes music he loves, and JOEY X has great taste in music, which means JOEY X makes immaculate music. He takes inspiration from XXXtentacion to Brent Fayaiz, from Travis Scott to The Weeknd, from Drake to Kanye West, and even Playboi Carti to Lancey Foux. JOEY X thrives off experimentation, always looking for the next sound to create and tinker with. In due time JOEY X will be in the conversation off being the Greatest Of All Time.
