Juicetopher

Juicetopher is the studio album by American producer Chris Pinset and a rapper/songwriter Oran Juice Jones II, (son of R&B singer Oran Juice Jones) released April 20, 2025, through Esclave records label. The album marks a significant departure from Jones' previous digital-era work, as it was recorded entirely in one take to 24-track analog tape at Mood Recording in Nyack, New York, without the use of computers. It was later remixed and re-released in Dolby Atmos format.

The title Juicetopher carries dual significance. It fuses "Juice," a nod to the artist himself, and "Christopher," the birth name of guitarist and co-producer Chris Pinset, whose alias "Juicetopher" also helped inspire the project's name. Pinset, a key force behind the album’s sound, co-led production alongside Adam Deitch, Lamar Moore, and Tre-Bor — forming the creative backbone of what became known as The Juicetopher Project.

The album was released on Easter Sunday, a rare occasion in 2025 when both Catholic and Orthodox Christians celebrated the holiday on the same day, a convergence that occurs infrequently due to differences in liturgical calendars. The release date, along with the album’s religious and spiritual themes, was reflected in its cover art, which depicts Jones as a Christ-like figure wearing a crown of thorns.
