Career

Jme started out producing by making mobile phone ringtones. He later used Mario Paint, Game Boy Camera, Fruity Loops, and then a mixture of Pro Tools and Logic Studio.

Jme also co-owns with Uptown Records, his own T-shirt chain, bearing the labels of himself, his record label Boy Better Know, and his dormant nightclub Straight Outta Bethnal.

JME also has a new song with YouTuber and friend KSI, titled "Keep Up", which has more than 33 million views on YouTube, as of August 2017.

Affiliations with the Sidemen

Despite being relatively unknown within the Sidemen fanbase, he has commonly been labelled as an "official" member of the group - most notably by miniminter in a Q&A video. JME has participated in multiple real-life challenges with the Sidemen, such as Ethan's quickfire crossbar challenge and Simon's "power challenge". He has had his music used in several Sidemen videos. His most recent video with the group was a Cards Against Humanity video.

There are, however, videos dating back to late 2013 and early 2014 that show JME playing Grand Theft Auto V with other Sidemen
