From growing up Trini in Canada to shaping the next generation of music innovators, Jason takes us on a journey through hip-hop’s 90s New York heyday, global music-making in Abu Dhabi and Berlin, his deep dives into icons like Sylvester, D’Angelo, and Michael Jackson — and how he’s redefining what it means to study pop.
