Life

Schemmer started playing the guitar at the age of six, he then played in a student band when he was 11. [1] In 2021 he took up beat production, tried his hand at different genres and first started rapping and singing. Since then his style is cross-genre, but largely subordinate to new wave, synth-pop and indie rock. [2]

In 2023 he changed his stage name from JBS Beats to JBS, winning the Sparkassen Nachwuchspreis Kultur in the Steinfurt district. [3] That year he realised his first single with Warner Music, called Unendlichkeit and featuring MilleniumKid. [4] The song became a hit months after being released. [5] [6]
