Jerry Indiana also known as Playo, is an independent artist from Gary, IN and CEO of S.T.A.Y.F.O.C.U.S. Entertainment. His passion for music began at an early age, influenced by various artists such as: Michael Jackson, Tupac, Jay-Z, Eminem, Ludacris, Lil Wayne, and 50 Cent. At the age of 12, Jerry Indiana and his brother O-Dogg formed the group Number 1 Playaz, and together they made their first performance at a small event in Gary, IN.


Jerry Indiana accomplished a lot with Number 1 Playaz. In 2012, Jerry Indiana and Number 1 Playaz created a song about IU Bloomington star basketball player Cody Zeller. As a result, Number 1 Playaz started to get a lot of attention and CBS Sports hired them to make a song about College Football. After the song was approved CBS Sports flew them out to Pasadena, CA to film a music video at the Rose Bowl Stadium. The music video they recorded was used as the intro to Inside College Football, which aired on CBS Sports in 2013. Number 1 Playaz was also featured in the 2013 Oct/Nov issue of the magazine XXL. From 2013-2015, Number 1 Playaz produced 3 installments of their “Put Us In The Game” mix tapes hosted by DJ Smallz. In 2015, Number 1 Playaz dropped the single “Just Becuz”, and shot the music video directed by Dan Centrone in Beverly Hills, CA.


Throughout the music career of Jerry Indiana, he managed to obtain a Degree in Business Management as he pursues a solo career now. In 2016 Jerry Indiana released his “History Without a Pen” mixtape. He free styled the whole mixtape to show that he’s one of the best to pick up a mic without writing, hence the title “History Without a Pen”. As of 2018 Jerry Indiana is working on another CD titled “Count Time”, which he wrote while he was locked up in a Federal Correctional Institution for a probation violation. He is also about to drop his first single “Traffic Jam”. With an aggressive delivery, Jerry Indiana brings a freestyle like Jay-Z (as evidenced on the mixtape “History Without a Pen”), wordplay like Lil Wayne, and the art of story-telling like Tupac, which altogether makes for one very dangerous MC.  Jerry Indiana has shared stages with Rick Ross, Dej Loaf, Future, Kevin Gates, Joe Budden, Lil Durk, G Herbo, Phor, Yo Gotti, and a lot of other mainstream artists. Jerry Indiana has put the state of Indiana on his back and is determined to show the world that he is what the game is missing!
