Yung Joc
Jasiel Amon Robinson (born September 20, 1980), better known by his stage name Yung Joc, is an American rapper known for his 2006 single "It's Goin' Down", which peaked at number three on the Billboard Hot 100. Prior to its release, he signed with Puff Daddy's Bad Boy South, an imprint of Atlantic Records, in a joint venture with Block Entertainment; the song served as lead single for his debut studio album, New Joc City (2006). The album and its sequel, Hustlenomics (2007), both peaked at number three on the Billboard 200 despite mixed critical responses. He is also known for his guest appearance on T-Pain's 2007 single "Buy U a Drank (Shawty Snappin')", which peaked atop the Billboard Hot 100.
Robinson's father owned a hair-care products company and helped him get an opportunity to write a jingle for Revlon. Robinson then founded his own label, Mastermind, to release his music.
Robinson met Atlanta producer Nitti Beatz and the two recorded the hit "It's Goin Down" in the spring of 2005. After teaming with Russell "Block" Spencer, founder of the Block Enterprises label, Spencer signed Robinson to Sean Combs's Bad Boy South for a multimillion-dollar deal, and Bad Boy released Robinson's debut New Joc City the following year. Robinson was also featured on the songs "Show Stopper" by Danity Kane (from Diddy's Making the Band 4) and Cassie's album track "Call U Out". Robinson was on Forbes' 2006 "Richest Rappers List", ranking at No. 20, having grossed approximately $10 million that year. "It's Goin' Down" reached No. 3 on the Billboard Hot 100 and No. 1 on the Hot Rap Tracks chart. The next single, "I Know U See It", reached No. 17 on the Hot 100 and No. 2 on the Hot Rap Tracks.
Robinson's next album, Hustlenomics, was released in 2007, with the singles "Coffee Shop" (featuring The-Dream and Gorilla Zoe) and "Bottle Poppin'" (featuring Gorilla Zoe). Hustlenomics sold 69,000 copies in its first week of release, debuting at number three on the Billboard 200. As of April 2009, it had sold approximately 197,000 copies, according to Nielsen Soundscan.
In 2007, Robinson was featured on "Lookin Boy", a song by his protégés and label signees, hip hop group Hotstylz. In 2008, Robinson was featured on the hit singles "Get Like Me" by David Banner, "So Fly" by Slim, and "Beep" by Bobby V. In 2009, he was featured on Day26 single "Imma Put It on Her". Robinson released a mixtape entitled Grind Flu for free on his label Swagg Team Entertainment on August 11, 2009.
Robinson released his first single from the album Mr. Robinson's Neighborhood, "Yeah Boy", in 2010. A music video for the single was also released.
On October 7, 2011, RCA Music Group announced it was disbanding J Records along with Arista Records and Jive Records. With the shutdown, Robinson (and all other artists previously signed to these three labels) were to release his future material (including Mr. Robinson's Neighborhood) on the RCA Records brand.
On March 18, 2014, Robinson released his first official single, "I Got Bitches", from his upcoming third album. On September 11, 2014, he released his second single from his upcoming album, "Features", featuring former collaborator and singer T-Pain.
