Brian Jackson Booking Agency Profile
Brian Jackson, one-half of the renowned combo Gil Scott-Heron and Brian Jackson, started his career at a young age and had nine albums released by the time he was 27. He is widely regarded as one of the founders of modern hip hop and neo-soul, leading New Yorker Magazine to refer to him as "a musical pioneer" in one of their articles.
His most recent album, This Is Brian Jackson (BBE Music), a collaboration with Adrian Younge and Ali Shaheed Muhammad, has received positive reviews and made the lists of the "Highest Rated Albums" in Mojo magazine and the New York Times.
Brian defies classification and collaborates with a wide range of musicians, including Alabama 3, Digable Planets, Ron Carter, Roy Ayers, Gregory Porter and Bobbi Humphrey. For many years, musicians like Tupac, Common and Kendrick Lamar have been among those whose music may be found in Brian's repertoire as sample tracks.
Brian considers himself a student of what he refers to as "The Tradition," a timeless set of largely unwritten rules that have been passed down by West African griots for generations. He consistently opts to use music to spread social and/or political themes, emphasizing what unites us as opposed to what divides us. His ultimate artistic objective is to encourage upcoming artists to follow in his footsteps..

The final Brian Jackson booking price is contingent on many variables and the booking fee we may show is based on a range derived from our past experience with what will Brian Jackson charge for an event. An example fee to book Brian Jackson is in the starting range of $40,000-$74,999. However, any recent popularity change would cause a price fluctuation well beyond this example. Also, their speaking fee might be different than the fee shown for the cost to perform or to just appear. Popularity, career stage, along with current demand will cause fluctuations in their speaking price as well. The final booking price may be more than what is shown, but you should at least have a budget within that range for them to consider an appearance, performance or speaking engagement.
