JUFU just drop another killer track, hear KIWMB here.

Brooklyn rapper JUFU lays out his summer plans with "KIWMB" his brand-new track available via 4TH & Broadway/Island Records. While he’s “kickin it with my bros,” JUFU will also be hitting the streets with his new project that will contain "KIWMB" and “LASER BEAM” released in April. “We all have a light, a beam,” JUFU said. “When people try to bring you down, you keep pushing and your light (beam) shines so bright that it overpowers anything anyone can say or do to stop you. Elevate the hate.”

The new forthcoming project follows up #GetUsedToMe (released last summer), JUFU’s 6-song major label mixtape debut, featuring the single + video “What’s The Vibe.“KIWMB” and “LASER BEAM” are also building on the success of Just Do It,” the inspira­tional anthem featured by EA Sports in the current Madden NFL 21game.

“Just Do It” kicked off the NFL #RaiseYourGame TikTok Campaign, the beginning of an exciting, immersive experience that led up to JUFU performing at the EA Madden Virtual Halftime Performance on Twitch and YouTube earlier this year. JUFU’s own TikTok #NikeCheckChallenge encouraged fans to take the leap and follow their dreams. Merging his love for multimedia content and his immense love of music, JUFU has won big league support from such figures as Will Smith, Steve Harvey, and the Milwaukee Bucks.

JUFU has also teamed up with Vans Custom Culture to support art education. He designed a pair of shoes that includes the “LASER BEAM” art to bring awareness to Vans’ high school art program, #VansCustomCulture. One U.S. high school will take home $50k for their art program this spring. Read more at vans.com/customculture.

ABOUT JUFU:

21-year-old JUFU (born Julian Fulian Jeanmarie) was born and raised in Brooklyn. By age nine he was taking guitar lessons, learning classical music and cover tunes, quickly jumping into creating his own sounds. By thirteen, he had joined Vine and was posting his first videos. Within two years he had over 200,000 followers and was enrolled in Midwood’s Edward R. Murrow High School, alma mater of Joey BadA$$ and the Pro Era rap collective. JUFU was one of the first students to join the school’s “Music x Techno­logy” program when it was launched in 2015, funded by donations from Grammy Award®-winning artist Alicia Keys and Levi’s. As an Advanced Placement student, JUFU was gaining invaluable hands-on experience in music, filmmaking, and social media. Vine was discontinued in 2017, leaving JUFU to start over virtually from scratch on music:)ally, and TikTok. He soon scored his first massive viral hit, a parody of Lil Yachty's “Broccoli.” As a graduating senior, JUFU hosted Music Tech Fest 2018, the school program’s big year-end performance showcase, and realized that at least part of his dream was to be on stage. The new music he was producing reflected this, starting with “Who R U” in 2019, which netted over 55 million+ Likes. More than a dozen record labels sought his signature, “but when I got to Island Records, I felt a real family vibe from them. I really liked that they were pushing for my longevity as an artist,” he said. “They’re very open to my creativity and my artistry.” Island’s belief in JUFU was affirmed with the back-to-back success in 2020 of his debut mixtape #GetUsedToMe (with “What’s The Vibe”); followed by Just Do It,” the inspira­tional anthem featured by EA Sports in the current Madden NFL 21 game. “Just Do It” was followed by “Laser Beam” and “KIWMB,” both from JUFU’s highly anticipated second project, the follow-up to the critically acclaimed #GetUsedToMe.
