The album, before its release, was titled The Pornstarr EP. JDiggz is currently in the studio working on his second album entitled "The Experiment". The concept of this album is to "do whatever he wants to genre and sound wise to create the perfect project in his mind." He is also said to have been working with Neverending White Lights frontman Daniel Victor. However, as yet, no specific details have been released other than the new song released titled This Time by JDiggz Feat: Neverending White Lights.

in 2012, JDiggz changed his stage name to 'Jonathan III' and focused on putting out music primarily online through Soundcloud and VEVO. He was formerly managed by Star Boy Records Inc. / WarnerChappell Music Inc.[1]
