Life and career
In April 2014, Elijah was announced to be a new member of Mindless Behavior.[4] He remained a member of the group, among Princeton and Mike River, until its disbandment in 2017.
In June 2016, Mindless Behavior released their first album as the new "MB" titled #OfficialMBMusic. The album made number 100 in the Billboard Year End Chart. It was released instead of their recorded album "Recharge" due to member Ray Ray leaving the group and having Mike River as a replacement. This left the group as a trio with members Princeton, EJ, and Mike River. Later that summer, the group was part of a film called Misguided Behavior, which was released later in the summer of 2017. Elijah J's anticipated solo EP was due to be released at the end of 2017.[5] EJ also starred in the 2022 BET movie, The Millennial.
Johnson stars as Michael Jackson/MJ in the Broadway production of MJ the Musical on April 4, 2023, replacing Myles Frost.[6][7]
