At an early age Teflon new music would have a major impact on his life. Growing up in Southern California with parents having backgrounds in singing and theater, he was attracted to performing and singing. At age 3, he was involved in plays and musicals. At the age of 12, he was introduced to a Casio keyboard. This became his passion. He began making beats, recording from tape to tape. Playing each phrase over and over, and then switching decks and dubbing the new sound. Drawing inspiration from artist such as Outkast, Marvin Gay, and Babyface Edmonds, his sound became unique incorporating rap, funk, and soul. This eventually lead him back to singing and song writing and the name J. Ghost. His singing infused modern electric and trap sounds with classic tones of funk, rock, and world music.
