Boogie James

Boogie James is a Dallas-based rapper, DJ, engineer, and producer originally raised between the East Coast and the Midwest. Active since 2016, he gained underground buzz with Shrimp Fried Rice before expanding his role behind the boards and stepping into full self-production with Motel Hacienda—a funk-laced, synth-driven project exposing the darker side of the music industry.
Beyond releases, Boogie curated a creative environment and originated Freestyle Friday in Cigar Land, Texas, building space for raw talent and real bars. Influenced by Dr. Dre, Quincy Jones, Nas, and Rick Rubin, he moves seamlessly between the mic, the mix, and the DJ booth—bringing polish, grit, and presence to every stage he touches.
