EDITORS’ NOTES

While rap music's detractors grumble about the genre's tendency to glorify violence, loose morals, and rampant consumerism, they tend to overlook artists like Pigeon John, a Los Angeles rhyme veteran who has been releasing decidedly non-threatening, lighthearted jams for the better part of two decades. After honing his skills at the storied Good Life Cafe (alongside acts like Jurassic 5, Pharcyde, and Freestyle Fellowship), he released half a dozen solo albums and has countless indie-rap features to his credit. Dragon Slayer is his most blatant pop material to date, full of relentlessly catchy hooks, lots of singing, and the usual overtly zany wordplay mixed with an ample amount of self-deprecating humor. “The Bomb' is slightly reminiscent of OutKast's crossover anthem 'Hey Ya!,' while several tracks, especially 'Rock Bottom Again' and 'Davey Rockit' aren't even really hip-hop at all. At its best, his blend of styles and instrumentation is original, funny, and thoroughly entertaining.

Early life[edit]

Pigeon John claims that his stage name was provided by Jesus who was driving around Inglewood: 'He hopped out and handed me a dead pigeon. He whispered, 'Please have a good time, you're really bumming me out.' I watched him sink back into the cushioned seats and drive, quickly away. And that's when it happened, the pigeon started shaking violently and became awake, picked up and flew away. I don't think I had a choice... it was 'pigeon' or die.'^[7] He later explained that he was discussing his need for a stage name with a friend when the friend suggested 'Chicken John', taken from the character Chicken George in Roots. The friend's mother then interjected that John didn't look like a chicken, claiming that he looked like a pigeon and should therefore be called 'Pigeon John'.^[8]

Career[edit]

In the early 1990s, Pigeon John and his childhood friend B-Twice formed the hip-hop duo Brainwash Projects.^[9] Brainwash Projects contributed the single 'Muchas Muchachas' to the Christian rap compilation 'Sanktifunctafyd' released by N-Soul Records in 1995. Brainwash Projects eventually released a record titled The Rise and Fall of Brainwash Projects on the independent label Jackson Rubio.^[10] One reviewer characterized The Rise and Fall as 'pure, uncut, holy hip-hop' but gave mixed reviews of its beats and lyrics.^[11]

Between 1997 and 2000, Pigeon John recorded the songs that became his first solo album, Is Clueless. The album was released in 2001 by The Telephone Company and then re-released in 2002 by The Telephone Company/Syntax Records with three new tracks and new artwork. Pigeon John then signed to Basement Records and released Is Dating Your Sister (2003) and Pigeon John Sings the Blues (2005). In 2005, Lyrics Born saw Pigeon John on the Cali Comm Tour and brought him into Quannum Projects.^{[citation needed]} That same year, Pigeon John's single 'Deception' was featured on a series of Nestle Crunch commercials.^[12] In 2006, after signing to Quannum, Pigeon John released his fourth solo album, And the Summertime Pool Party. The album has received positive reviews from many sources, including LA Weekly, Entertainment Weekly,and Vibe.^{[13][14][15][16]}

A new album, entitled Dragon Slayer, hit physical and digital retail October 12, 2010.^[17] With the aid of General Elektriks' Herve Salters, he produced the whole record, including, for the first time, sampling original instrumentation rather than flipping samples from records.^[18] In 2014, he released an album titled Encino Man.^[19]

Personal life[edit]

John was married to Harmony Dust from 2002 to 2010.^[20][21][22]
