Philadelphia’s Jus O is one of a kind and it can be traced all the back to his upbringing and love for the entire spectrum of the arts from an early age. Jus O stands for “Just Uniquely Sharing Observations” which is meant to point and highlight Jus O’s love and passion for storytelling. With how Jus O was brought up it’s no wonder that he has an unmatched ear for production. Picking the perfect pocket of 90s and early 2000s influence, Jus has a universal appeal and the ability to rock and entertain any crowd.

Born Omar Clark, Jus O was drawn to music and art from the jump, Jus attributes his older brother as his introduction to music. “I was just trying to be cool like him...I would soak up all the information I could receive from his world while in the house or outside of it” Jus says. On the other side of things Jus O was actively studying and learning about hip-hop, literally going from basketball practice at the beginning of the month and tap dance rehearsal a few weeks later. During all this, Jus O is also taking a hip-hop dance class, subconsciously training for the beats he’d be listening to and rapping over down the line. In high school, Jus O lost his father and as a way to cope and grieve, he made the deep dive into poetry and writing. As Jus began to carry his father’s legacy, little did he know his musical journey was just beginning. 

Jus O, delivers an eclectic sound to where you don’t know what you’re going to get from the Philadelphia standout, but it’s guaranteed to grab your ears. Wholly influenced by the Golden Era and mid-2000s era of hip-hop, Jus O refuses to box himself in with those sounds. His sound is nostalgic and vintage with a hefty dose of originality formed from his days picking apart beats in his hip-hop dance class. All his experiences and years studying music and art, culminated in May of 2018 with the release of “Just Uniquely Sharing Observations”, Jus O’s debut album. Garnering coverage from ItsTooMuchInfo, ButtaBlog and more, this solidified Jus’ appeal. The raw ability and evolution of Jus O led the release to over 20K streams across all platforms.

Performing in a myriad of venues and shows including, last year performing at the TLA for the Made in America pre-show. It doesn’t stop there with Jus O performing with the likes of Tierra Whack, Kirk Knight of Pro Era and the aforementioned Cam’Ron. Are you looking for that vintage heat you remember dancing to watching 106 and Park after school? Jus O has that. Want bass-driven production mixed with a bit of braggadocio, Jus O can produce those hits too.
