Career

B2K

As a teenager, J-Boog became a member of the boy group B2K, alongside Lil' Fizz, Raz-B, and Omarion.

In 2004, he starred as Rico, the peacemaker of the group, in the hit dance movie, You Got Served, with his B2K bandmates and Marques Houston. Despite the film receiving mostly negative reviews, his performance in the movie was praised by many critics. Soon after, B2K announced they were disbanding, which led each member to pursue various future solo endeavors.

Post-B2K

After the break-up of B2K, J-Boog collaborated with Lil Fizz on an EP album titled "Night Life" in 2006.
