Roland Jones is an up-and-coming artist in the underground music scene, notable for his contributions to the modern landscape of phonk, a subgenre of hip-hop that blends elements of '90s Memphis rap, lo-fi beats, and atmospheric sampling. Although details about his personal history are elusive, Jones has made a name for himself through his prolific output and the distinctively moody, gritty sound that characterizes his tracks.

With a penchant for crafting beats that feel both nostalgic and fresh, Roland Jones has steadily built a dedicated following. His recent releases like "Loced Out" and "SOMEONE 2 LOVE" demonstrate his evolving style, often featuring lo-fi, hypnotic loops accompanied by deep bass and crisp snares. Albums such as "RAW TECHNIQUE, Vol. 2" and the hauntingly atmospheric "HAUNTING VOL.II" showcase his versatility and ability to set a dark, immersive mood. By weaving in samples from old-school horror films and deploying reverb-drenched melodies, Jones has forged a sound that's haunting yet rhythmically compelling, securing his place in the vanguard of the phonk movement.
