J Leslie's entrepreneurial journey began in 1978 as Jonathan Floyd, co-founding VAP Records (Virgin Archer Production) with his brothers in Amityville, Long Island. As President, he helped shape the dance music scene of the late '70s and early '80s, producing 12" singles and launching artists like Final Edition.

Beyond business, Leslie is one half of J.S. Floyd, the "Distinguished Gentlemen of Smooth Jazz," alongside his brother Stafford. Their "Hot Funk/Cool Jazz" sound continues to captivate audiences with releases like

"Two Piece and a Biscuit."

From the recording studio to the written page, J Leslie's mission remains the same: inspire young minds to think critically, dream boldly, and create their own path to success.
