Hip-Hop/Rap
A.k.a. David Jackson G-Side

David Jackson formerly known as Jiggy Jack or "Penetentiary" from the crew G-Side (God's Side) is Jack. G-Side He grew up in Detroit and formed in 1996 G-Side with MC Jiggy Jack and Mr. Ran working the beats. The crew had a hit with the song Misery and signed to Too $hort Records/Jive Records. They contributed the song "When U see me" to Jive's compilation album "Nation Wide : Independence day", that went gold in 1998. As Penetentiary the crew released their first album The Truth on City Click Records. Prison The succes had negative side effects to Jack's life and he ended up in prison twice. It was during the second time that God confronted him. An arrest landed David in jail for a 90-day sentence in 2001. An early fight landed in an isolation cell for a week, where a previous inmate had left a Bible. He read it, and recognized the Truth for him. And so in a small, secluded cell, mysterious ways once again prevailed. Free He got out, relinquished the rights to all the recordings he had produced for Too $hort Records. He didn't want them, because he felt he didn't need them anymore. God had found David, and He was ready to put him to work. Truth Rap So Jack changed his lifestyle and also made a choice to use his talents for God. With his "truth rap" as he calls it Jack hopes to reach all people regardless of color, creed, gender or beliefs with the possitive message of eternal truth. He feels that the message from God is for all people. Albums His first album 3-E-O stands for Third Eye Observations and got released by Warpath Enterprises. A company he co-owns with his brother Anthony "Tone" Jackson and long time production associate and friend, Jeffrey Campo from Soweto Productions. Goal With his albums Jack wants to present biblical truths to believers and pre-believers to counter mainstream lies and prompt people to see the world as God sees it � hence the name 3-E-O. New Album In 2006 Jack uses the name G-Side again to release his latest album The Brix.
