After nearly five years since his last full-length release, IamTheGENIUS is reemerging with "Ex On My Text," a new visual that offers a glimpse into his next chapter. The Jamaican-born, Atlanta-raised artist, entrepreneur, and tech-forward music innovator is reintroducing himself with a sound that reflects both growth and reinvention.
“Ex On My Text” is available everywhere now; watch here.
"Ex On My Text" is a smooth yet introspective track that captures the all-too-relatable moment of an old flame resurfacing. With its hypnotic melodies and infectious bounce, the song blends raw emotion with Genius’ signature genre-bending approach. The visual brings this late-night dilemma to life, featuring moody aesthetics and neon-lit backdrops that amplify the song’s storytelling. It’s a fitting way to mark his return—reminiscent of the past but fully focused on what’s next.
"This time around, it's about evolution—not just as an artist, but as a person," Genius shares. "I've spent the past few years building something bigger than myself, and now it's time to bring that same passion back to the music."
Genius first made his mark in the industry as a club DJ and the mastermind behind the influential mixtape series "Mixtape Monopoly," helping propel underground anthems into the mainstream. His knack for curating infectious sounds extended beyond the DJ booth, leading him to build a multifaceted career spanning music production, digital distribution, and business innovation. As CEO of Mixtape Monopoly and Monopoly Distribution, Genius has spent the past five years revolutionizing the independent music space—most notably with the recent launch of Monopoly Grow, a groundbreaking all-in-one platform for artists and labels.
Now, Genius is stepping back into his artist role with an elevated perspective. He's been working tirelessly behind the scenes to create opportunities for independent artists, proving that his influence has never faded. "Ex On My Text" is just the beginning of a new wave of music reflecting his artistic evolution and the next phase of his career. With more music on the way, "Ex On My Text" serves as a reminder of Genius’ undeniable presence and a hint at what’s to come.
