Artist bio

Some of you might’ve heard of oh1baby already (formerly known as jxyvalentine), but what you don’t know is who he is and how we got here.

It all goes all the way back to 2008. Back when I was a kid, my brother used to make music with his friends in our apartment. It was during this time that I developed a deep interest, and love for music. This led me to eventually pursuing music in any way that I could. I was in choir from 4th-8th grade. I learned how to play the keyboard, and overall I just fell in love with the whole process of being an artist. At the time though I never had any real desire to create my own music.

Some years went by, things changed, people came and went, but what never changed was my love for music. Somehow, someway, it led to me being introduced to my closest friends, brothers even. I made my first song late 2023 with the help of my dearest friends Percstro and Clout. And it’s been history ever since.

I would say my music is completely out of box out here in the PNW. I would categorize my music as a blend of rnb, hip-hop, and jazz. You can call it pluggnb, you can say trap, some people just call it auto-tune music lol. But one thing you can’t deny is that the vibe definitely there.
