JV

**JV** is a rising French rapper and producer making waves in Europe's hip-hop scene with his gritty trap beats and streetwise lyricism. Hailing from the Paris region, the artist (born Jordan Vanhoye) gained traction through his work with the SPORTBOYS collective, blending drill influences and dark, bass-heavy production with sharp flows heard on tracks like *1998 FREESTYLE* and *CITROEN*. His music often nods to luxury brands and urban life, exemplified by releases like *POLO* and *Hollywood*, while maintaining raw, energetic collaborations with fellow French artists. Though relatively private about his personal life, JV’s consistent output since the mid-2010s and his role in shaping France’s trap landscape have solidified his status as a key player in the genre’s evolution.
