Johnathan Davis
“Time has come, to realize what you are, what you’ve done tonight. Time has come, we’ll have something to talk about. I will too.” In the year of 1971, on January 18th, a baby boy by the name of Jonathan Houseman Davis was born to his mother and father, Mr. Rick Davis. Bakersfield, CA was the city and state to become home to such a talented young boy. Jonathan’s biological mother worked in a local theater. His father worked in a music industry, along with other jobs such as working at a local music store when Jon was a young boy. His early childhood was pretty good from birth to the age of 3. When he was 3 his parents divorced. While most children have problems getting used to a new parents Jonathan’s troubles went a deeper. “ Little child, looking so pretty. Come out and play, I’ll be your daddy. Innocent child, looking so sweet.

Just like many of us young teens he had some hardship and struggles, through his music he not only helps himself, he helps kids around that are having hard times in life. Although the only mentioning of happiness is that is all he wants; “All I want is to be happy”, Jon said. He’s given to his fans in ways most artists would never. He’s given us his dark secrets, he has shown us how to cope, when to forgive, and when to fight back with vengeance. For many he’s like a second parent to those who’s real parents don’t care. His lyrics are a way to vent and to feel. Korn started as a everybody’s band, touring intensely and letting kids get to know Jonathan personally with his lyrics.
