Mike Jones
{
Michael Allen Jones (born November 18, 1981) is an American rapper. Born and raised in Houston, he signed with the local record label Swishahouse in the early 2000s, and rose to mainstream recognition with his 2004 single, "Still Tippin'" (featuring Slim Thug and Paul Wall). The song moderately entered the Billboard Hot 100 and was followed by his 2005 single "Back Then", which peaked at number 22 on the chart. Both songs received platinum certifications by the Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA) and preceded the release of his debut studio album, Who Is Mike Jones? (2005), which peaked at number three on the Billboard 200. That same year, Jones guest appeared on T-Pain's 2005 single "I'm 'n Luv (wit a Stripper)", which peaked at number five on the Billboard Hot 100.
His second album, The Voice (2009), was further commercially-oriented. Despite a critical decline, two of its singles, "Next to You" and "Cuddy Buddy" (featuring Trey Songz, Lil Wayne and Twista), entered the Billboard Hot 100. Jones initially became recognized for his catchphrase "Who, Mike Jones?" (or, "who is Mike Jones?"), which he would usually repeat several times on songs. He also became known for handing out shirts with his cell phone number printed on the back. The two went on to be trademarks of Jones throughout his career.
