Jordan Michael Houston III, known as Juicy J, was born on April 5, 1975, in Memphis, Tennessee. His early interest in the music industry led him to study marketing, publishing, and royalties. By 1991, he co-founded the Southern hip-hop group Three 6 Mafia, alongside DJ Paul and Lord Infamous. Initially an underground horrorcore group, Three 6 Mafia gained significant recognition, eventually signing with Loud Records, an imprint of Columbia Records, in 2000. Juicy J, as a core member and producer, was instrumental in the group’s evolution, contributing to their influential debut album “Mystic Stylez” in 1995 and their subsequent chart-topping releases.
A pivotal moment for Juicy J and Three 6 Mafia came in 2006 when they won an Academy Award for Best Original Song for “It’s Hard out Here for a Pimp” from the film “Hustle & Flow.” This achievement marked a significant crossover success, making them the first hip-hop group to win an Oscar and perform at the ceremony. During the group’s hiatus around 2009-2011, Juicy J began focusing on his solo career, releasing mixtapes like “Blue Dream & Lean” and collaborating frequently with Wiz Khalifa. This period led to a recording contract with Columbia Records and Dr. Luke’s Kemosabe Records, as well as a role as an A&R and co-owner at Wiz Khalifa’s Taylor Gang Entertainment. His solo career flourished with the hit single “Bandz a Make Her Dance” in 2012 and the critically and commercially successful album “Stay Trippy” in 2013, which peaked at number four on the Billboard 200.
Beyond his work with Three 6 Mafia and his solo albums “Chronicles of the Juice Man” (2002), “Hustle Till I Die” (2009), “Rubba Band Business” (2017), and “The Hustle Continues” (2020), Juicy J has maintained a prolific career in production. He has produced for numerous artists including Lil Wayne, Nicki Minaj, Megan Thee Stallion, and Katy Perry, with whom he collaborated on the Grammy-nominated and chart-topping single “Dark Horse.” His career highlights also include guest appearances on other successful singles like “23” by Mike Will Made It, “I Don’t Mind” by Usher, and “She Knows” by Ne-Yo. In 2019, he reunited with DJ Paul to revive Three 6 Mafia for reunion performances and a tour, showcasing the group’s enduring legacy.
