Darnell "D." Jones The General has been in the spotlight and seemed destined for greatness since the age of 10.

He held out to create the perfect package and is now independently releasing his next huge hit, "My Ting-a-ling" as a long-awaited reintroduction. A double threat in that, D. Jones is educated on the business and marketing side of developing his brand and the fact that he is still a true artist at heart makes it that much better for fans and investors.The knowledge and experience he gains from both make him unstoppable against all competition and ensure the best quality music and fan engagement possible, or as he would say, "More fiyah!!".
