The "KJ" part of his name refers to his old rap alias, "King J. Mac," a name which he later described in one of his podcasts as "horribly cheesy."
"52", which is pronounced "five two", not "fifty-two", is a reference to the Biblical story of Jesus feeding the multitude with five loaves and two fish, which is also sung about in his song "Push Up" from The Yearbook and in the "KJ Five Two" on It's Pronounced 'Five Two.
He has been married since June 1996.
In 2002, Sorrentino released his second album, Collaborations.

KJ-52 has won four Dove Awards, three in the "Rap/Hip Hop Album of the Year" category.
