Cincinnati-based artist\u00a0Joness<\/a> flexes her ability to jump back and forth from bouncy bars to hard-hitting vocal ranges as she intertwines classic hip hop sound with an R&B style on her new EP, Sheep<\/em>.<\/p>\n

Joness first hit the scene with her debut EP,\u00a0Rule Number 9<\/em><\/a>, following it up last week with\u00a0Sheep: An Extended Play<\/em>. The EP carries the listener through the internal stages of drinking – the shedding of inhibitions, the slurred words, the inner ‘wolf’ that comes out to play and ultimately making peace with the sometimes regrettable hazy memories. It’s as much a drinker’s inner monologue as it is a public display of Joness’ sonic maturation. While relatively new to Cincinnati, she was heard on several albums last year and this EP marks her coming into her own and finding the balance between her own artistic sheep and wolf.<\/p>\n
