From the corner jukebox of a Kansas City Irish pub to the sun-drenched studios of the Bay Area, JPZ has always understood the power of music to change the temperature of a room. It's not just in the notes he plays or the rhymes he pens—it’s in his blood, his bones, and the way he breathes life into every beat.
Born John Patrick, and known to friends and family as Peezy, his moniker JPZ came naturally, stitched together by a neighborhood nickname and a nod to Wu-Tang legend RZA. Raised in Kansas City, Missouri, before making the Bay Area his second home, JPZ’s story isn't just one of geographical shifts—it's a living testament to the soul-shaping impact of music, family, and an unwavering belief in self-made freedom.
Growing up in a two-parent household until his teenage years, JPZ's early world was one of structure, support, and musical discovery. With two sisters, Kirsten and Courtney, by his side, he first felt the gravitational pull of music inside a neighborhood bar called Corner Cocktails. As a kid, he'd hustle up quarters from his dad to play the jukebox, intuitively learning how the right song could flip the mood of an entire bar full of people. That small but powerful moment planted a seed that would grow into a life-long devotion.
By second grade, JPZ was already knee-deep in saxophone and guitar lessons, laying the musical foundation for what would become a signature sound he now calls "Kansas City Mob Soul." A jazzy, soulful interpretation of the classic West Coast Mob sound, his music doesn’t just knock—it breathes, hustles, and teaches. His tracks are dark, aggressive when they need to be, but always infused with a heavy dose of game, manifestation, and financial freedom talk.
His influences run deep and diverse: Mac Miller’s free spirit, Berner’s hustler intuition, and DJ Mustard’s ability to soundtrack a generation are all woven into JPZ's sonic DNA. Yet, he doesn’t just emulate—he elevates.
Career Highlights
JPZ’s resume isn't just full of underground nods—it’s Billboard-certified.
He charted alongside West Coast heavyweights like E-40 and B-Legit with their collaborative project "Connected and Respected."


He appeared again on the Billboard charts through another placement with E-40, further cementing his arrival as a serious player in the game.


Not one to sit on accolades, JPZ kept the pressure on. His latest collaborations read like a who’s who of the independent rap elite:
"J6s" and "RDV" featuring none other than Tech N9ne—the Kansas City titan JPZ grew up mere minutes away from but didn't meet until later in life.


"Back from Aspen" alongside Richie Rich, Larry June, and Curren$y—a laid-back celebration of hustle and elevation.


"We Different" with Richie Rich, E-40, and V-White, a testament to unique paths and unshakable authenticity.


In a world that often demands artists chase trends, JPZ creates timeless soundtracks for those building legacies.
What Makes JPZ Different?
It’s not just the jazzy keys, the dark basslines, or the addictive hooks. It's the philosophy embedded into the music. JPZ isn’t preaching fairy tales—he’s laying out a blueprint.
Manifestation over desperation.


Law of Attraction over Law of the Streets.


Financial freedom over fast money traps.


Each song is a lesson in resilience, a homage to imagination, and a prayer for creation—all wrapped up in beats that slap and lyrics that linger.
The Heart of Kansas City, The Hustle of the Bay
JPZ carries Kansas City’s jazz tradition and working-class grit with him, no matter where he touches down.
 A children’s book, “Charlie Parker Played Be Bop,” sparked his obsession with the city’s legendary jazz heritage, inspiring him to pick up the sax and start his journey. That love for Kansas City’s sound can still be heard today—an undercurrent of improvisation and soulful rebellion running through every record.
Relocating to the Bay Area didn’t dilute his roots; it sharpened his pen and expanded his grind. In the Bay, JPZ found new levels to the independent hustle, soaking up game from the kings of getting it out the mud and flipping it into gold.
Unique Facts About JPZ

His love for jazz started with a children’s book and led to a lifetime of musical study.


Despite his lyrical confidence, he is deeply spiritual, often attributing his success to a combination of discipline, imagination, and God's grace.


The Message Behind the Music
At its core, JPZ’s movement is simple:
 You can break free.
Through discipline, hard work, and consistency, anyone can escape the hamster wheels of debt, dead-end jobs, and dangerous shortcuts. By leveraging the power of imagination and remaining grounded in faith, it’s possible to create a life that feels less like survival and more like art.
JPZ isn't just making music—he's building blueprints for dreamers ready to bet on themselves.
