Ett bra tecken är att en av hans låtar används som signatur i den enormt populära tv-serien Mad Men. Onsdag 6 oktober kommer han till Uppsala. Ramble John ”RJ” Krohn startade sin lysande karriär hemma i Ohio, USA. Han lånade ett par skivspelare av en kompis och började sin bana som DJ. Med en mix av hiphop, soul och pop är han nu större än någonsin. Ett bra tecken är att en av hans låtar används som signatur i den enormt populära tv-serien Mad Men. RJD2 säger att en av hans vänner använde RJD2 om honom i sina raplåtar, sedan dess har namnet blivit kvar. Hans första album Deadringer togs emot med jubel av både publiken och branschen. Och det ledde till ett samarbete med rapparen Blueprint som de kallade Soul Position. Det följdes upp av ytterligare två album unlimited EP och 8 million Stories innan han kom med sitt andra soloalbum, Since We Last Spoke, på bolaget Definitive Jux. Sedan dess har han samarbetat med och producerat en mängd rapartister, Copywrite, Cunninlynguists, Cage, MF DOOM, Diverse och Aceyalone, för att ta några. Under 2007 släppte han soloalbumet The Third Hand. RJD2 är en kultartist i skateboardvärlden och skateboardfilmkretsar där hans musik ofta används i filmmontage. Förra året startade han sin egen skivlabel RJ’s Electrical Connections och har återutgett plattor som Your Face Or Your Knee Caps, The Horror, och Since We Last Spoke och en box som han valt att helt enkelt kalla 2002-2010.
