THE PLUG NAMED JIMMY

Orange Mound, a neighborhood located in southeast Memphis, Tennessee, was the firstย African Americanย neighborhood in Memphis built by African Americans.ย ย 

Built on the formerย Deaderickย plantation grounds, the Orange Mound subdivision was developed for African Americans in the 1890s to provide affordable land and residences for the less wealthy.ย 

Drugs and crime infected the neighborhood in the 1980s and 1990s. In the first decade of the 21st century, revitalization efforts were started and show positive effects. Orange Mound hosts a growing underground rap scene as well as national hip-hop stars. The hit rap duo 8 Ball & MJG (Premroย Smith and Marlon Jermain Goodwin) grew up in Orange Mound.ย ย 

They met at Ridgeway High in East Memphis, where many Orange Mound children were educated from the early 1970s to the early 1990s.ย 

Global recording artist Slimย Vezzyย grew up in Orange Mound & from day one, his life story was โ€œAgainst All Odds.โ€ย ย ย 

Slimย Vezzyย faced multiple obstacles during his childhood, from deep-rooted racism to drug dealer dreams.ย  Slimย Vezzyย birth included multiple life-changing elements, but his journey was all โ€œGodโ€™s Plan.โ€ Slimย Vezzyย was an honor student throughout his early academic years & began drawing full animated pictures at the tender age of 8.ย ย ย 

The transition from artist drawing to music became natural for Slimย Vezzy.ย  In the beginning, Slimย Vezzyย grew up emulating his rap style after MJG & 8Ball, 2Pac, Biggie, Three Six Mafia, & more.ย  He formed a rap group & launched his career in full beast mode.ย ย ย 

The rap group achieved significant success, but it conflicted with his internal purpose as one of Godโ€™s future musical vessels.ย Slimย Vezzyย made one of the most challenging decisions in his life, he separated himself from the band & dedicated his life to God.ย ย ย 

Slim Vezzyย focused his musicย onย the blessings & principles of God. The new direction enabled Slimย Vezzyย to become a better man, spiritual warrior, husband, leader, & friend.ย  Slimย Vezzyย re-launched his music career with the full support of his family & the rest is โ€œHISTORY.โ€ Slimย Vezzyย dropped hisย phenomenally successfulย radio track โ€œNot Todayโ€ in 2017 on all major platforms.ย  The track is a soundtrack to any person contemplating quitting on their dreams.ย ย ย 

The lyrics of โ€œNot Todayโ€ are mental therapy for all Millennials working through the day-to-day grind.ย  โ€œNot Todayโ€ has generated over 90,000 Spotify streams in less than 24 months.ย  The digital catalog of Slimย Vezzyย maintains an average of 150,000 Spotify listeners annually.ย ย ย 

The music of Slimย Vezzyย currently expands in 15 foreign countries, including the United Kingdom, France, Germany, Canada, & Italy.ย  Slimย Vezzyย music has gained him Urban Inspirational Album of the Year for โ€œBlood Bought.โ€ย  The brand of Slimย Vezzyย is expanding into clothing, global merchandising, & more in 2019.ย  Slimย Veezyย understands that his music is a guiding โ€œLight for Millennials.โ€ย ย ย
