Kurious Jorge an Underground Hip Hop MC from New York.Kurious Jorge is of Puerto Rican and Cuban descent, and grew up in Spanish Harlem.He debuted in 1991 on Powerule's "Young Stars from Nowhere". He then appeared on Pete Nice and DJ Richie Rich's album Dust to Dust. The duo helped Kurious get a record deal with Columbia Records via Bobbito and Pete Nice's Hoppoh imprint. In 1992, he released his first single, "Walk Like a Duck". In 1994, Kurious released his debut album A Constipated Monkey, which featured the hit singles "I'm Kurious" and "Uptown Shit". Despite the success of the singles, the album was not commercially successful.
Shortly after the album's release, Kurious seemingly disappeared from the music scene. In 1999, he reemerged on MF DOOM's album Operation: Doomsday on the track "?" and contributed a track to a Monsta Island Czars Mixtape, under the alias Biollante.
Amalgam Digital reissued A Constipated Monkey with bonus tracks in 2007.
In June 25th, 2009 will be the release of the long awaited official sophomore album from this underground NYC legend. "II" features appearances from fellow underground heroes MF DOOM, Max B and a special reunion with the legendary MC Serch. The album also features boom bap production from VIC and Platinum selling producer Dame Grease.
