Lo Jones is a songwriter and producer from Atlanta whose work helped shape the sound of the early 2000s R&B and hip-hop golden era. Signed to Sony/ATV and Bad Boy Entertainment, he collaborated with artists like Mario Winans, Usher, Ginuwine, J.Lo, Lil’ Kim, and Beyoncé. In 2005, he landed a rare posthumous placement featuring Biggie, 2Pac, Nas, and Mary J. Blige. His catalog experienced a second wave of influence—sampled by Wale and Chris Brown, flipped by Ice Spice, and bootlegged by Tory Lanez—culminating in Metro Boomin’s global hit “Creepin’” with The Weeknd and 21 Savage. Today, Lo’s original material remains a foundational source of creative inspiration and reinvention, which is why all future uses of his samples will be automatically added to this Catalog Share.
