Mike Jones is on board and is a great addition to the already swelling cast list of Mountain Mafia. Mike will be playing Darius, a long time friend of the main character Dwight (played by Casey Miracle). Darius shows up at a crucial time to give Dwight some information that just might save his life. !--break-->

You could say that Mike Jones has ‘finally found his voice' in the years since he first emerged on the music scene in 2005 with a platinum grill and an infectious call-and-response slogan (‘Who? Mike Jones!'). These days, the Houston-born rapper is more mature and focused; he's making business deals and giving back to his community. And on his sophomore album The Voice (Ice Age/Swishahouse/Asylum), he wants you to know that there's more to Mike Jones than ‘tippin' on four fours.'

Fans have been anxiously waiting for an album like this from Jones, ever since his break-out single "Still Tippin'" introduced the world to Houston's style of cruising in tricked out "slabs." But Jones wasn't exactly an overnight success.

Back in 2001, he started his own independent record label, Ice Age Entertainment, with money he had saved to pay for beats and studio time. As he began promoting his music on the streets, to DJs and at strip clubs, word spread fast about the enterprising rapper and it wasn't long before Jones had a deal with local hit-making label Swishahouse. Jones released a series of independent albums and mixtapes under Swishahouse, and the sizeable following he garnered in the South and Mid-West landed him a deal with Warner/Asylum. His 2005 national debut Who is Mike Jones? sold over 1.5 million copies, and in 2007 he returned with the EP American Dream, which was accompanied by a straight-to-DVD movie of the same name.

Over the years, when Jones wasn't recording in the studio or performing on stage, he was securing business ventures like his recent partnership with ProConcept Marketing Group to release his own line of Cognac called "House of Dobbe'." He's also actively involved in his charities Ice Age for Kids and the American Dream Foundation, through which he's hosted community youth events and donated thousands of dollars to Hurricane Katrina relief efforts.

Indeed, there's more to Mike Jones than the "good life" he often raps about. And with The Voice, you'll hear the creativity and evolution of a young man who has something to say.
