During the 1990s, J.E. Jones moved his way up the urban music corporate ladder to be a celebrated songwriter, producer and eventually vice president of Russell Simmons’ Def Jam Records. Despite his success, Jones felt a nagging emptiness in his life and went to church to get to the bottom of it.

That was the tipping point. Soon thereafter, Jones transitioned from the corporate offices of Def Jam into the sacristy of ministry. He is now poised to release his first solo gospel CD, Fire.

Appropriately, “The Turn Around,” a declarative song Jones co-wrote about fighting back from life’s frustrations, is the first single to be released off his new project. The chorus has a radio-friendly hook that Jones obviously learned to craft during his days in urban music.

Fire will be released on Ultimate Entertainment Records and distributed by Sony Music RED LLC.
