Bio: Herman Johnson aka "J.R. & Allnighters" is an up and coming artist thats starting to make a serious buzz on the music scene. I'm Originally from Chicago, IL. Most of my life was spent in Mississippi. I created the name J.R. & The Allnighters from my broad interest in music. I feel that I have different musical personalities; and by adding the title "The Allnighters' to the mix allows me to explore a broader sound without feeling boxed into a specific genre. My primary love is hip hop but I still like to flirt with different tones and topics that aren't as often expressed in hip-hop music. I feel that my music will help open a door for myself and other artists who are in tune with music. Read more at jrandtheallnighters.tumblr.com
