Foul Mouth Jerk

about

Foul Mouth Jerk is an independent hip hop artist raised in northern New Jersey. Growing up in the late 80’s & early 90’s he participated in what is often referred to as the music’s golden age. Beginning rapping in 1988, he spent his high school years battling in the school cafeteria, parks and street corner cyphers. Later he would cut his teeth on stage at open mic’s in Newark & Manhattan and perform at various parties around NJ & NYC. During his junior year of high school Foul Mouth was kicked out of his mother’s house and subsequently carried on his search for stage time while living on the street & sleeping in parking lots and abandoned vehicles. He credits this period with shaping much of his rap style. Not long after graduating the Jerk decided to see as much of the world as possible and began traveling the country, earning gas and food money as a street performer freestyling over the drums of his traveling partner. This carried on in cities around the US, from Burlington, VT to Miami, from San Francisco to New Orleans’ famous French Quarter. This period found him in a wide range of places & situations with an eclectic cast of characters from many walks of life, that most people never experience, largely on what would be considered the underside of American society. This broadened and further shaped his unique outlook and expression into something that speaks to and for a much wider cross section of the disenfranchised of our culture than most of his contemporarie
