Description from Wikipedia:
Jonah Sorrentino (born June 26, 1975 ), better known by his stage name KJ-52, is a Christian rapper from the United States. The "KJ" part of his name is shortened from his old rap alias "King J. Mac," which he later described in his podcast as "cheesy." "52" (which is pronounced "five two," not fifty two) is a reference to the five loaves and two fish that Jesus used to feed the 5000.
