Oboi "DJ Royalty" Jones is one talented businessman. I actually went to high school with him, he was always more of a quiet person, but always loved music, and participated in band all four years. So it was not a surprise that Thrones of Greatness LLC. was established.
Thrones of Greatness is an independent record label with Oboi Jones as chief executive officer. It has only been a year and the label has signed artists and is recognized by industry professionals across the country. Oboi hopes to set up a solid music industry in Milwaukee, stating that when people are signed they typically have to relocate to Los Angeles or New York. He wants to make the Midwest a music hotspot as well.
The question that remains constant in my interviews is how anyone balances it all? Oboi is currently in school, working full-time, travels regularly for work, and running the label. He states, "If you want it enough you will have it, you will sacrifice those late nights."
Oboi is also a producer, and works with many artists including Quron Payne, SHAWNNIEBEA$T, and Titus Howard. One of his most recent projects, The Comfort Zone by Rob K is a personal favorite, specifically New Wave. The project is picking up buzz and gaining momentum; being featured in The Source Magazine and more. The production of each track is amazing though. The Comfort Zone is available on all major music platforms (Tidal, Apple Music, Spotify). I highly recommend giving it a listen!
Oboi has a lot of things happening for the year so keep a lookout on this guy! He is extremely easy to work with and as humble as they come, so don't hesitate to reach out to him with business inquires.
