DEMUN JONES has always had a way of keeping it real when it comes to the music he has written, recorded, and performed throughout his career, as a Georgia native where he’s lived his entire life. He knew at a young age he wanted to do something musical. He started listening to hip-hop and rap and was intrigued by breakdancing. That’s when he heard N.W.A. That album was about Compton, for Compton and the whole world took notice. It was a musical documentary – sort of a bird’s eye view of life – that Demun wanted to portray in his own autobiographical song selection for Jones County.
He extensively toured with Rehab bandmate Danny Boone and co-wrote a lot of the Rehab material, including the critically acclaimed songs for Welcome Home. He also co-wrote Welcome 2 Jawga with the Jawga Boyz, who made an appearance on Jones County as do Charlie Farley, Bubba Sparxx, and Locash Cowboys.
Demun’s first mainstream credit as a songwriter came on the title track of Colt Ford’s popular Ride Through the Country, which also featured John Michael Montgomery.
