[edit] Musical Career

Joe Bermudez is well known for his career as a musician. He started after he was kicked out of his house at the age of 18. Because he "really had nothing to lose" he said that he "drove by this radio station on the way home from another job interview and thought it might be fun to do." He demanded that they hire him and luckily for him, they did[2]. He has worked for artists such as Jessica Simpson, Jennifer Lopez, Britney Spears, LL Cool J, Hilary Duff, Kelly Clarkson, and Justin Timberlake[3]. His tracks often appear on XM Satellite Radio and MusicChoice on television. As well has having his tracks appear there, Joe has his own show on XM Radio.

[edit] Internet Fame

After a picture of Joe Bermudez in an odd pose was found circulating the internet, Joe began to get more attention online, eventually becoming an internet celebrity in his own right. His songs are frequently mocked, usually in jest, for being extremely long. Joe Bermudez's songs often go for over an hour, which is long for a normal song, but not particularly long for a club mix. More recently, he was made the mascot of the International Idiocy forums. Mercutio, the administrator of the boards, has said that if Joe Bermudez ever reads the thread he would love to have him post some on the site [4].
