MJ Johnstone is an underground New Zealand Alternative Hip Hop artist. He produces his own music, which is influenced by heavy metal and rock artists like Korn and Marilyn Manson.

His first album Deceit was released online early 2020 fitted with 16 tracks that mix comedy with tragedy.

His second album, spawning from the events of 2020, will be released early 2021. He's been quoted saying "It's a full on album, 17 tracks. The first half is a mixture of calm, happy tracks with little sprinklings of depression, halfway it changes to heavy, angry music, with little sprinklings of depression. It's called Parallels."
