Born in Kent in the summer of ‘79, Jehst spent his childhood in Sussex before moving to Huddersfield, West Yorkshire as a teenager. Fueled by the bleak reality of smack infested post-industrial North he re-located to London, making his vinyl debut in 1999 with the highly acclaimed “Premonitions” EP, launching the self-financed YNR Productions label from his University halls of residence. From this point on there was no turning back and Jehst has become one of the UK’s leading Hip Hop artists, outlasting the fads and maintaining high standards of quality in everything from his lyrics to his productions and his live show.
