Ep. 14: SOJA's Jacob Hemphill - The Raw Grammy Story, The UB40 Tribute & 25 Years of Vibe
Greetings, and maximum respect to the massive!
It was a real honor to sit down with my bredda, Jacob Hemphill from the mighty SOJA, for a reasoning on Rebel Rockers that covered a journey of 25 years. We trace the vibes from a D.C. garage to how the band exploded in the most unexpected way when they landed in Hawaii for the first time. Jacob takes us deep inside the raw, unfiltered emotion of their Grammy win—a story you have to hear to believe—and uncovers the surprising family reunion that changed everything, revealing how a tribute song to his heroes UB40 led to a mind-blowing, full-circle moment with the legendary Ali Campbell himself.
From becoming global ambassadors for reggae music to the stories that shaped the sound, this is more than just an interview; it’s a testament to the power of the vibe. You don't want to miss this one.
