Early and personal life
Khing Jus Wurk was born Frank David Monroe on July 11, 1984, in Red Hook, Brooklyn. He was taken from his mother and placed in foster care at the age of 5 and spent a few years at a group home called Hawthorne Cedar Knolls.[6] Wurk had a troubled childhood, after getting a scholarship to Kents Hill School in Maine and then being expelled after just a few months for bad behavior. Khing Jus Wurk was arrested for the first time when he was 15 years old and spent 26 months going back and forth to New York Family Court and spending time in Hunts Point Bronx Spofford Juvenile Center as well as Daytop Village. After being released from juvenile detention, Khing Jus Wurk spent years going in and out of jail until he turned his life around.[7]
Khing Jus Wurk graduated from Full Sail University with a Bachelor's degree in Entertainment Business.[8][9]
Career
2009-2012: Early Career, Setbacks, and DreamzWurk Entertainment
Formerly known as Yung Wurk,[10] [11][12] as CEO of DreamzWurk Entertainment,[13] he released one album with the label before parting ways, Level Up.[14][15] With little to no success on the project, Khing Jus Wurk found himself in and out of jail once again. It was at this time he received his GED, soon after he got accepted to Full Sail University and began the path to becoming Khing Jus Wurk.
2013-Present: Graduation, Fitness, Entertainment
Since attending Full Sail University and focusing on his artistry and building and establishing his own entertainment brand, Jus Wurk Entertainment, he has released one EP entitled Wurk Related EP from which he released [16][17] his single "I Am (Wurk)" which hit the DRT Charts and held a spot for two weeks.[18][19] This gave him the opportunity to open for Young Money Entertainment's Cory Gunz in Miami.[20][21] His message is one of positivity and change, and he demonstrates this through positive actions, showing that anything is possible with hard work, such as training in MMA and interval training.[22][23] He has appeared on the Entrepreneur Podcast Network (EPN)[24] to discuss his goals for Jus Wurk Entertainment and what being Khing Jus Wurk means.
Artistry
His style has been called a mix of DMX, Jim Jones, and LL Cool J, but his themes are almost unheard-of in the rap industry. Rather than relaying stories of guns, drugs, and women, Khing hopes to inspire listeners to focus on being the best version of themselves and enjoy life.
