Jaeson Ma on starting 88Rising, Bridging East & West, Moving Culture Forward

The Intersection

Matt interviews Jaeson, the founder of 88rising and OP3N. Jaeson shares his incredible story of growing up in the Bay Area in the 80s and 90s and how he was exposed to hip hop culture, kicked out of three high schools, became a youth pastor, paying Bruno Mars only $1,500 to record four Christian rap tracks with him before the fame, and even being mentored by MC Hammer who brought him around the early buildings of YouTube, PayPal and more. Jaeson talks about East West Ventures and 88Rising, bridging gaps between the east and west through entertainment and technology.
