Jive Jones (born c. 1975–1976[a]), sometimes stylized as JIVEjones or JIVE, is an American singer, songwriter, and producer. Raised in Florida, he got involved in the Miami nightclub scene as a teenager and became a songwriter and producer.[1][2] Among the hits he penned were Mandy Moore's "Candy" (1999) and Anastacia's "Cowboys & Kisses" (2001).[2]

In 2001, Jones signed with Jive Records, with plans to release his debut album later that year.[2] His debut single, "Me, Myself & I", received play on US pop radio stations and went into rotation on MTV.[3][4] Internationally, it charted in the UK and became a top 20 hit in the Netherlands.[5][6] His debut album, also titled Me, Myself & I, did not receive a US release, but was released internationally on October 5, 2001.[7][8] Jones also co-hosted the MTV game show I Bet You Will.[9]
