When the history of ATL’s trap era is written there needs to be a whole chapter about
Otis Williams Jr. aka
OJ Da Juiceman. Born and raised in East Atlanta, he made a name for himself putting in work at the Texaco and shook up the local music scene in 2004 with his song
“Black Tee.” His street exploits are the stuff of legend, such as surviving a shooting in 2009 and coming back to perform onstage that same week. Over the years he’s worked closely with
Gucci Mane and
Waka Flocka and maintained a steady flow of mixtapes and albums, collaborating with the city’s top producers including
DJ Drama,
Trap-A-Holics,
808 Mafia and
Mike Will Made It.
O.J.’s latest release, of which the artist says, simply: “Juiceman been in the streets—had to pull my
Pyrex out on these folks.” Stream the
Decatur Redd-produced track below.
