Lydell "Mafia Low" Jones II, is a unsigned artist born and raised on the Eastside of Buffalo, N.Y. His artistry collaborates alongside his younger brother Kristopher "Swagg Jones" Jones on collaborative projects such as "Buffalo Built" & "Back to work vol. 3". Mafia Low was Born on December 19 1985 and began giving life to his craft at the susceptible age of 11. Recording lyrics over instrumentals on cassette tapes, Mafia was influenced by artist such as Scarface, Tupac Shakur, Biggie Smalls, Fabulous, Lloyd Banks & many more...
Growing up on the Eastside wasn't exactly "A walk in the Park" for young Mafia, in a city where you could lose 50% of your childhood friends to random gun violence, young Mafia nearly lost his life at the age 18 to a gunshot wound to the abdomen, and as a Black Maan in America, that's where the real trials and tribulations of life began. Shortly after, he was sent upstate for five years and was only released after time served. Released in 2012, his passions for the craft were reignited, prompting him to invest in a plethora of high end studio equipment, started teaching himself how to use pro tools and other recording software to cut costs of studio time and has since then focused most of his energy towards being a better version of himself through artistry as well as an humanitarian.
Though as things begin to look up, he was accused of an alleged triple shooting homicide which held for him a Triple Life sentence of up to 75 years in prison, but with the grace of the Most-High, this Righteous Maan was acquitted at trial with all charges dropped. "No matter the storm 'I WILL COME OUT ON TOP', I got a story to tell." -Mafia Low.
