YoungBloodZ is an American Southern hip hopduo from Atlanta, Georgia composed of J-Bo (born Jeffrey Raymond Grigsby on October 4, 1977) and Sean P (born Sean Paul Ryan Joseph on March 7, 1978). The duo was signed to LaFace Records. They are one of many commercially successful Atlanta hip hop artists.
Jeffrey Raymond Grigsby and Sean Paul Ryan Joseph met at Decatur's Miller Grove Middle School, where they started the Attic Crew with some friends.[1]
Their debut album was Against Da Grain, released in 1999 on LaFace. The duo are best known for singles like "U-Way" (1999) and "85" (2000), which featured Big Boi. After a 3-year absence, they returned with Cadillac Pimpin' in 2003, scoring a moderate hit. The duo's sophomore effort featured Grammy-nominated single "Damn!", reaching No. 4 on the Billboard Hot 100 and becoming their only top 10 hit. It was produced by Lil Jon.
YoungBloodZ has made many appearances in a number of hit singles including Cherish's "Do It to It", Sammie's "You Should Be My Girl", both produced by Jazzy Pha. Sean P appeared on the Billboard R&B/Hip-Hop number one song "Snap Yo Fingers" by Lil Jon featuring E-40. YoungBloodz have also been featured in songs with T.I., Nelly, Gucci Mane, Lil Scrappy, Twista, DJ Khaled and T-Pain. The group are working on a new album Back From the Liquor Sto, that is scheduled for release soon. The first official singles from the EP are entitled "Foolish" and "She Drank, She Smoke" both produced by Rawbeatzz.[2]
Legal issues
Both members were arrested on June 1, 2006, on drugs and weapons charges in Atlanta after a traffic stop involving a tour bus with an expired license plate. All charges were eventually dropped[3] and subsequently the driver was charged.[citation needed] J-Bo and Sean P never had any trouble with the law before this arrest.[4]

In the summer of 2006, both Sean P and J-Bo were arrested on weapons and drugs charges in their native Atlanta. According to reports, they were caught in a traffic stop that involved an expired license plate-bearing tour bus. Despite this, all of the charges were later dropped- which wasn’t too surprising as the two had never brushed in with the law prior in the past.{{cite web}}: CS1 maint: url-status (link)
