Artist Jah PHNX is intellectually known to be from another planet and logically known to hail from Atlanta, Georgia. Jah has gained a mass following in a short amount of time by enamoring us with his genre-bending style, connecting with audiences through his lyrics, vulnerability, and talent that transports you to a distant place unknown to mortal men. Inspired by artists like Joy Division, David Bowie, HIM, She Wants Revenge, XXXTENTACION, Mareux, and The Cure; he meshes genres to create a whole new way of being. Ladies, gentlemen, Theys, and Thems, I present to you a rockstar's life through music, sex, videos, and the internet.

Music & Career

I’m a painter and I make music as well. In my paintings, I aim to communicate my spiritual experiences, philosophical ideas, and the lens through which I see the world. Some people will consider my art abstract but I don’t have a definition for it I just create what I feel and what I’m guided to manifest onto canvas. A lot of times in my paintings I don’t even know what I’m creating when I begin I just let go and start, and I really feel as though I’m channeling something from a higher source and I allow it to create through me. My paintings have been exhibited alongside the works of Jean Michel Basquiat and I’ve shown internationally in Kyoto Japan as well as in the states. As far as my music goes I really just aim to create beautiful sounds that the people can connect with and hopefully it can brighten their day and get them dancing because I believe celebration and joy is the ultimate religion. I got to the point where I am today through consistency, the support of others, and just continuing to believe in my mission and that what I have to offer in this world can be valuable to the masses.

I’m inspired by existence, life is such a beautiful place if we really take the time to consider how unreal our reality is. Life, in general, is my biggest inspiration but as far as other things go I would say the driving force behind my creativity is really focusing on creating something that can pierce into the heart of the person experiencing my creation, no matter what medium I’m using. If you can get lost in the experience and it transports you into a different space or it alters your emotional state then I succeeded as an artist and that feeling inspires me to keep going. Creating something that really connects with others is motivating and at the end of the day, that’s what art is about.”
