His name comes from the drink "Jumex," which is a Mexican drink. He chose the name because it was his favorite drink when he was younger, it was the only drink he and his friends could afford when he was 12 years old.
JUMEX first went viral with a semi-trending video of him smoking in his algebra class screaming "Worldstar," he ended up getting a court case and being suspended for ten days. He dropped out from Lyons Township High School shortly after this. According to the video of him smoking you can see his teacher call him by his name "Mark." He performed at Camp Flog Gnaw Carnival and is signed to COR/TAN Records.
He started making music when he was in high school. Growing up in the suburbs outside of Chicago, JUMEX’s influences ranged from David Bowie to Nirvana to Yung Lean, and way more. His first release, "TRAPPED," speaks to these diverse influences. On this addictive track, he unleashes a ton of energy while maintaining a composed flow.
Two months later into the new year, "LONER" is released. The song is melodic and stretches from alt rock to emo rap – capturing teenage angst while embracing isolation. With the reactions that have stirred since the release of "TRAPPED," "WISH ME DEATH" is an eerie follow up. He brings back the intense energy from "TRAPPED" but increased tenfold.
The debut of his singles prove JUMEX is an artist to watch as he continues to release genre-bending music.
On June 7, 2019, JUMEX would release his debut EP, LONER. 5 months later, JUMEX would return to release his second official EP, LOVER.

JUMEX Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I'm stuck in this world with these people who don't understand shit
It's just... there's no meaning to anything
I'm stuck on this goddamn planet
Please get me out of here
I'm trapped and I can't get out
Yeah, so might as well fucking get high
So might as well just die
I'm trapped and I can't get out
So might as well just fucking get high
I'm trapped, I can't get out
Yeah, so might as well just die
I'm trapped, I can't get out
So might as well just fucking get high
I'm trapped, I can't get out
Yeah, so might as well just die
Ayy, ayy, ayy, ayy
Cobain crazy, feeling wavy
Smoke with demons make me wavy
Never wake up, world we hating
Never wake up, world we hating
Smokin' propane with the demons
Purp in cup, that's a liter
Going crazy, life's wavy
Open cut with new Mercedes
Favorite shit is isolating
Favorite sip is isolating
Favorite shit is isolating
Favorite shit is isolating
Favorite shit is isolating
Favorite shit is isolating
There is no way to escape
Hating your mate, putting a gun to your face
I'm trapped and I can't get out
So might as well just fucking get high
I'm trapped, I can't get out
Yeah, so might as well just die
I'm trapped, I can't get out
So might as well just fucking get high
I'm trapped, I can't get out
Yeah, so might as well just die
Ayy, ayy, ayy, ayy
The song "TRAPPED" by JUMEX is a heart-wrenching expression of the artist's intense feelings of entrapment and desperation. In the opening lines of the song, he explains how he feels stuck in this world with people who don't understand him, and expresses his belief that there's no meaning to anything. These lines set the tone for the rest of the song, which is characterized by JUMEX's raw and emotional delivery.
The chorus of the song is a repetition of the words "I'm trapped and I can't get out, so might as well just die / So might as well fucking get high." These lyrics convey JUMEX's feelings of despair and resignation, as he feels trapped in a situation from which there is no escape. The idea of getting high is something that pervades the song, and it is a coping mechanism that JUMEX turns to in order to dull the pain of his circumstances.
The middle verse of the song is particularly haunting, as JUMEX describes the ways in which he copes with his feelings of isolation and despair: "Favorite shit is isolating / Favorite sip is isolating / Favorite shit is isolating / Favorite shit is isolating / Favorite shit is isolating / There is no way to escape / Hating your mate, putting a gun to your face." These lyrics paint a bleak picture of someone who has lost all hope and is barely holding on.
Overall, "TRAPPED" is a deeply poignant song that conveys the intense emotions of its creator. JUMEX's delivery is raw and unfiltered, and the haunting melody adds to the song's overall atmosphere of sadness and despair.
