JIMMY Is A Magician Now?

Fans in Southern California have been finding flyers across different cities suggesting that the former artist ended his relationship with music to pursue a career as a local magician. The flyers, written in big bold letters, state JIMMY is a "magician for hire" at birthdays, events & workshops for only $13/hr. The flyer also shares a toll-free number (833)-3SHAZAM. Fans who've called the number have reported that customers can book JIMMY for a magic show or leave a review for his magic show performance. They also report that if you press option 2, you'll hear a voice say "11/10" before a snippet of hold music plays.

Poindexter has confirmed this switch from music to magic on his Instagram sharing the flyers and some of the voicemails left on the toll-free number. He's even made the toll-free number his bio on all social media platforms. Some fans have called in support of his transition while others have bombarded the line with angry messages urging JIMMY to return to music. Although no signs currently indicate JIMMY is releasing new musical material, fans are convinced this is just a stunt for publicity. Either way, the artist-turned-magician has got people talking. We can only wait and see what happens next.

Last week JIMMY shared that he'd be stepping away from music following an emotional breakdown the week before on his subscribers-only Instagram live. The announcement came just after JIMMY shared that he was working on another new album a few months ago. He was also documenting the process in real-time for viewing on his own self-made platform Zulak.
