While Dealz may have been influenced by the likes of EMPD, Run DMC, Tupac, and Biggie, he also has had the opportunity of a lifetime that most artists will never get to witness up close and personal; the infamous Jackson magic in the studio, “It’s a great feeling watching my father and uncle work together again after all these years, seeing them being able to pull everything together is awesome.”
But don’t think that Dealz jumped into the music game because of his family’s name. In fact, he says, “Music has always been a part of me, but I decided to pursue it because I wanted to bring a change to music. It’s not about the money or material things, for me music is more about helping others, if they get something out of the music, then I’ve done my job,” spoken like a man that knows how to follow his heart and passion.
Mr. Jackson is also all about paving his own way. “Nothing has ever been handed to me; I have worked hard for everything that I have. I’ve even done street promotions for other artists. It’s important that I do continue to represent my family, but more importantly continue to respect the name and brand that they have worked to build.”
