Dealz featured on The Mofo Chronicles!

Poetry In Motion: The Real Dealz by Shameika Rene'

"Allow me to introduce to you a man that has effortlessly captured the essence of what it means to pour your heart and soul into your craft. He’s not the soft spoken type of Jackson that we are all used to, instead, Siggy Jackson better known as Dealz is probably that one Jackson that they don’t want you to know about. He’s the Jackson that you just never know what he might say, but ultimately, Dealz is one of the nicest, most down to earth type of guys that I’ve EVER had the pleasure of talking to, and actually enjoyed the conversation.


Dealz is the son of Jackie Jackson, yes, ya’ll...that means the late undisputed King of Pop, Michael Jackson is his uncle, but slow ya roll, that’s not the point of the blog.


Who is Dealz?


I’m glad you asked..


Dealz Jackson is a talented rapper and songwriter, motorcycle and car enthusiast, and a pretty normal guy. (and if I can help it..nevermind….this ain't about that right now..I digress..)


In a family full of singers, Dealz was the one that ventured into his own lane, “when we did talent shows when I was a kid, in front of my aunts and uncles, that’s nerve wracking enough, but everyone else was singing and I always rapped. Singing has never been my strong suit, and I won’t hide behind a façade and say it is. Besides, rap is in my heart, to me it’s more poetic,” says Dealz. “Rap has always been considered as gangsta music, but it’s actually just more passionate than anything.”


And boy does Dealz have a way with words. His new single “ That's How I Feel” features his father Jackie and his uncle Jermaine Jackson. (if you know what I know, you’ll run to iTunes right now and purchase it cuz its fiyyyaaaahhhh!!) Combined with their smooth sultry timeless vocals, Dealz adds lyrics that give off a sensual poetic vibe “My father and uncle came to me with the song already finished, they said they didn’t know what else to do with it, so I said, let me have it, I know exactly what to do with it. The song is me basically telling my father how I feel about women. You don’t have to call women names and demean and degrade them just to have a song.”
