Jackson artist, Jabari 'Safari Bari' Harris, sat down with us in Episode 33 of 'Who's Hot? Exclusive' to discuss his athletic background, fatherhood, and journey into becoming a rapper. Check out the full interview below!
When it comes to being recognized for their creative talents, the state of Mississippi often goes overlooked. A former athlete turned artist invokes the powerful words uttered by Hip Hop legend Andre 3000 at the infamous 1995 Source Awards. “The South got something to say.”
Hip Hop artist Jabari 'Safari' Harris uses his experiences on the gridiron and in life to vividly paint pictures about embracing your imperfections, evolving with intentions and quite frankly enjoying the moment.
Currently based in Norway, Harris thoroughly understands his role in music and wants to empower and positively influence the next generation, starting with his son.
“With me being an athlete, I always knew I had a platform. Then i had to think to myself, what is it i’m actually trying to say. I’m a conscious rapper. I like to rap about things people can relate to. With me now being a father, I told myself I wanna say things that i would want him to hear and take heed to it...”
A lifelong lover of melodies, the Jackson, Mississippi native continues to spread positivity through coaching while flexing his creative muscles through music.
