Sticky Fingaz has developed a career spanning decades across music, film, and television, evolving from a multi-platinum recording artist to an actor, director, and entrepreneur. After being discovered by Jam Master Jay of Run-D.M.C. in 1991, Sticky Fingaz quickly became an integral part of the iconic hip-hop group Onyx. This collaboration led to the release of three successful albums on JMJ Records, including their multi-platinum debut, ‘Bacdafucup,’ in 1993, which featured the international hit single ‘Slam.’ That same year, Sticky Fingaz made his acting debut in Forest Whitakers HBO drama ‘Strapped,’ signaling the start of a diverse career that would span music, film, and television.
Transitioning beyond his group work, Sticky Fingaz launched a solo career, releasing his critically acclaimed debut album, ‘Black Trash: The Autobiography of Kirk Jones,’ in 2001. This ambitious concept album was lauded for its innovative hip-hopera narrative. Concurrently, his acting career flourished, with appearances in more than 80 films and television shows. Notable roles include ‘Tyrone’ in the feature film ‘Next Friday’ (2000), Jeremy in ‘Flight of the Phoenix’ (2004), and the titular character ‘Blade’ in the television series ‘Blade: The Series’ (2006).
In 2019, he further innovated with the release of ‘It’s About T.I.M.E.,’ a digital album movie that offered a cinematic chronicle of his life story, blending music and film seamlessly. Beyond his contributions to entertainment, Sticky Fingaz has also extended his influence into philanthropy and business. In 2020, he was appointed President of the Hunger Aid Foundation, dedicating efforts to support humanitarian causes. The following year, in 2021, he established K.
Jones & Company, an enterprise focused on providing strategic and brand development services within the cultural sector, further cementing his multifaceted career as an artist, filmmaker, and entrepreneur.
