On September 9th, I took a leap of faith and submitted two songs to Sway In The Mornings "Get In The Game" segment. It is a sweep or keep it type of segment where the callers decide if you stay in rotation. To my surprise on September 14th, I received and email to appear on the show the following day.
Going into it I was prepared for anything. I told myself even if I get all No's the opportunity was a blessing. Well not only did Sway, Heather B and Tracy G's give me the thumbs up, I got Tyra Banks' approval. She came on air singing my new single "The Reason" with that signature Tyra energy. She then renamed me right there on air. check out the interview above.

After eight years of pursuing a career as a tv producer and getting nominated for two Emmys, Jermaine Price quit his job to pursue his true passion as a hip hop artist. He has since gotten writing credits on Twista’s song Rise - Hope 2020 Remix.
His single “Speak Your Truth” has received shoutouts from major artists such as Redman, Joel Ortiz and Ras Kass. Speak Your Truth received praise from all hosts and callers on Sway Universe's "Get In The Game" segment. His most recent single "The Reason" is now in rotation on Sway's Universe after a unanimous decision from all callers requesting it remain in rotation. He was featured on Sway's Universe as Amon Re the 8th Sign until Tyra Banks renamed him Jermaine Price The Reason.
