DJ Big Jacks (real name: Jay Isaac) is not only one of most talented musicians and DJs in Canada, he’s also one of the most humble, kind humans you’ll ever meet.

He discovered his love for music at a young age, going to record stores with his father, and quickly carved himself a career in Toronto’s music scene before expanding his reach from coast to coast. Jay is the official DJ for Aritzia and co-founder of GGBR Records with music producer Bozack Morris.

In this conversation, we talk about his perspective around the Black Lives Matter movement over this last year, creativity and connection, the origins of his nickname Yung Snack Lord, and more.
