Jerome Jones (born October 25, 1981), known professionally as Romeo and Young Rome, is an American rapper and singer. He is a member of R&B group Immature/IMx. Jones released his solo debut album Food for Thought in 2004.
Jones is a founding member of R&B group Immature/IMx, which included Marques "Batman" Houston and Kelton "LDB" Kessee and was managed by Chris Stokes. The group released four albums under the name Immature: On Our Worst Behavior (1992), Playtyme Is Over (1994), We Got It (1995) and The Journey (1997). Jones' nickname at this time was "Romeo". In 1999, the group underwent a name change and released two albums under the name IMx: Introducing IMx (1999) and IMx (2001). The group also branched out into film ( House Party 4: Down to the Last Minute ) and television ( A Different World ) before disbanding in 2002.
In 2004, Jones began pursuing a solo career. Under the name Young Rome, he released his debut album titled Food for Thought on June 22. The album featured the singles "After Party" (featuring former B2K member Omarion) and "Freaky" (featuring rapper Guerilla Black).
Throughout most of his career with Immature/IMX, Jones wore an eye patch over his right eye, leading to speculation that Jones had an eye condition. However, Jones later clarified the situation in a verse from his song "Look Down On Me", featured on his debut album Food For Thought:
I remember when Brandy Norwood hit me in my eye. I had a detached retina (and) my lens came out, I had to have three eye surgeries. And she thought we'd never be cool again. But I put that on my life, I love her to death. If she hear me talking, I know she can hear the honesty in my voice and my sincerity.
Jones has stated that he was hit in the eye with a book. [2]
