Born Derrick D. Jones; Beadz is the 2nd of four children. Growing up in a single-family home in the heart of Chicago forced Beadz to mature fast and he quickly learned the art of hustling. Surrounded by hustlers and drug dealers Beadz saw first hand what the streets had to offer, but in 1996 after the brutal murder of his beloved uncle he knew he had to focus his energy elsewhere. Beadz who always had a love for music now began to devote hours on end to developing his craft.

Under the tutelage of his older cousin he was able to discover who he was as an artist. As Beadz grew so did his skills. He drew from influences such as 2pac, Twista, Do or Die, Crucial Conflict Notorious B.I.G. and later Lil Wayne to develop a style all his own. Beadz quickly became an artist hard to place in any rap style category. His unique adaptable flow made him standout amongst fellow rappers and made him a fan favorite. His ability to not only knock out awe-inspiring verses but also create catchy choruses made him the total package. This was made evident when he was picked as a finalist out of over 2000 contestants in Clear Channels Chicago Idol. Since then Beadz has appeared in over 200 events throughout Chicago, guest appeared on both WGCI and Power 92.3, appeared in the Source, Hip Hop weekly, Atlantas Hood Magazine, Ozone magazine and even magazines as far away as Germany. Beadz has worked his way to become one of the most sought after performers in Chicago and has truly earned his title as the Face of Chicago.
