Jordan Houston, better known by his stage name Juicy J, is an American rapper, record producer, and Academy Award-winning songwriter. He is best known as co-founder and a member of the duo Three 6 Mafia. He is the younger brother of fellow member, Project Pat.[2] Juicy J's second solo album, Hustle Till I Die,[3] was released June 16, 2009. He won an Academy Award for Best Original Song for "It's Hard out Here for a Pimp". In December 2011, Juicy J confirmed rumors that he was the newest member of Wiz Khalifa's "Taylor Gang." He is featured with other members of Taylor Gang on the cover of Source Magazine's May 2012 issue. Juicy J is most notable for his crunk style of rapping, highlighted by his heavy-breathing and stomping background sound effects.[citation needed] Juicy J's production style is characterized by fast-rolling high hats, sharp snares, and deep cinematic bass. He also incorporates samples from classic soul artists such as Willie Hutch, David Ruffin, and Isaac Hayes. Juicy J recently signed a $2 million dollar solo deal with Dr. Luke's label Kemosabe with Columbia records.[citation needed] His chart topping single "Bandz A Make Her Dance" was created in a two bedroom apartment in Washington, DC.
