Captivating audiences worldwide with his highly-acclaimed debut album, 2007’s Hear Me Roar, his multi-genre style blends reggae, R&B, hip-hop, and Polynesian soul with his own original street flair. Following the success of his debut release, he joined the Wash House Music family in 2008 and started working with Gramps Morgan, on his second disc, which was recorded in a variety of historic Jamaican studios and features tracks with reggae giants, Richie Spice, Tarrus Riley, and Morgan Heritage.
His latest album, 2010’s Back Yard Boogie, has catapulted him to near superstar status and contains the hit single, Let's Do It Again, produced by the legendary Don Corleone. Credited with changing the role of Polynesian artists in mainstream music, J-Boog is excited about the future and has the right spirit and attitude to continue his rise to the top.

Hot Rain combines the classic elements of Polynesian Reggae, big bass, soulful lyrics and numerous vocal styles. All staples of the island sound. Captain Cako leads the group that includes such names as Chris Reezy, Big L, Jah Princess, Masterbassist and Jay.Keyz. The six members of Hot Rain have a considerable connection and one can simply hear the assimilation they have with each other. It seems almost infectious.
