How Singer Jac Ross is Surviving the Quarantine | AfterBuzz TV

Jac Ross, who was discovered by and is working closely with Rodney “Darkchild” Jerkins, the Grammy-winning producer responsible for some of the most notable pop/R&B songs including "It's Not Right but It's Okay" by Whitney Houston, "Say My Name" by Destiny's Child, "If You Had My Love" by Jennifer Lopez, "Telephone" by Lady Gaga, etc. Jac’s voice is truly soul-stirring, but more so, his music has depth – powerful, thought-provoking, anthemic. It’s the kind that can potentially shift a culture – perhaps a generation. He embodies the iconic voice of some of his predecessors, and perhaps can someday join the pantheon of some of the greatest consciousness-raising American songs: “What’s Going On?,” “Change Is Gonna Come,” ”Strange Fruit,” “Fight The Power” and “The Blacker The Berry.” Singing uplifting lyrics that advocate for cultural, social, and political issues, the artist of change draws from the struggle of his own life experiences and comes with a message of hope – something we all are grasping more than ever. He is signed to Island records, and we are continuing to release music consistently, with an EP on deck. To date, we have released three singles: “It’s Ok To Be Black,” is both unapologetic and inspirational. “Saved” has become a fan favorite, partly due to the current state of our world. Also, this song was recently featured on the March 24th episode of FOX’s hit series EMPIRE.
