ABOUT JUST ONE THOMAS
Just-One Thomas's music vibrates, with intense energy and intrigues listeners as he shares his story and passion for life, music and social change, via rhyme and drum.
Born and raised in Knoxville, TN, Just One Thomas has been mastering his craft since the early age of 7. Growing up grooving to the sounds of The Brothers Johnson, Parliament, Prince, Michael Jackson, Bobby Womack, and Al Green, and coming to age reflecting on the melodies and metaphors of Rakim, Run DMC, Africa Bambataa, and the Fat Boys, he was heavily compelled to live in a realm of music. In a time when many of his peers were choosing a life of crime, he realized his dream and found an influential love for performing. After being entered in a talent show as a break-dancer by his mom, he had his first taste of the stage and the audience and loved it. By age 16, he discovered that he was developing into both a gifted lyricist and football player. Reaching a crossroad, Just One chose entertainment; though the path hasn’t always been easy, he has no regrets about his decision to pursue music.
