Setting the bar high for Gen-zers everywhere–music producer and DJ, JBroadway, is quickly making a name for himself in the entertainment industry. Getting his stripes through Tik Tok, where he has amassed a following of over 325K as of December 2020, Broadway has crafted various viral videos, many of which include remixes that he has produced in his at-home studio in Minneapolis, Minnesota.
In reference to his success on TikTok, Broadway notes that the internet has played a huge role in his artistic development from an early age. Being raised by a family of musicians, where his father is also a music producer, music has always been a consistent part of Broadway’s life. Born in 1997, Broadway is a member of the first generation to fluently understand the internet, for he has never existed in a world without. Combining these two influences, Broadway has taken it upon himself to adjust to the modern world, teaching himself new tricks on the web to expand his outreach. A creative scientist in his own right, Broadway has noted: “music gives me the gift of independence. When you’re honest with yourself and your goals, you free yourself from the box that life can trap you in. With the internet, I realized from a young age that the classroom can be anywhere that you want it to be.”
