Rapper and Emcee Jacobi Ryan joins Double Nickel & Teller on this episode. Jacobi was born and raised in Lawton, Oklahoma but has gone on to build his brand in OKC, Oklahoma. Jacobi Ryan is a Hip Hop artist and has been writing Hip Hop music since 2006 at the age of 16. Among passions, Hip Hop takes center stage for Jacobi, who is also interested in business and other forms of art. Jacobi's sound has been connected to the likes of Jay-Z, Big KRIT, and J. Cole. Influenced heavily by Bob Marley, Jay-Z, Steve Jobs, MLK Jr., and many other artists, activists, moguls, and revolutionaries, Jacobi's style can seem like a juxtaposition against the status quo found both in the general mainstream and underground. After graduating college and deciding to end his basketball career, Jacobi is poised to continue his growth and impact by discovering more and more of himself in Hip Hop while using his developments to inspire others as he has been by them. He joined us to discuss a wide range of subjects from college athletes getting paid to the state of black America. Jacobi Ryan featured music. Lawton View/Bounce Back/Only Hope.
