Mike Jones' ways of promoting himself have gone to a
whole new level. Giving out his cell phone number was the big hit, that
he might as well provide a key to his house with each mixtape he sells.
Just one year ago, Jones was on the streets promoting Swishahouse's
album The Day Hell Broke Loose: Part II, with "Still Tippin" as one of
the tracks. Slowly it hit the mixtapes, and made its way to the top.
Suddenly everyone was wondering who Mike Jones is! "Who is Mike Jones"
features some great tracks. Some of the highlighted tracks are "Back
Then" and "Still Tippin" The two songs with identical beats and rhymes
are still great hits, Jones staying power comes more from repeating his
name and lyrics as often as humanly possible providing a great lesson
in branding, but not much else. In the song "Grandma", Jones shows that
his writing isn't that simple. It's a letter to his grandma who passed
away just before he went big. The album "Who is Mike Jones" overall is
a pretty big hit, his name and cell phone number will definitely be
playing in your head after listening to the album.
