Stereo Embers: The Podcast

"Justin Jeffre Of 98 Degrees On Pop Music And Social Activism” Justin Jeffre may be widely recognized as one of the four famous faces in the R&B group 98 Degrees, but he keeps a far lower profile while volunteering for the Homeless Coalition in Cincinnati. Jeffre and his bandmates have sold over 10 million albums and are currently on a nearly 40-date pre-Christmas tour called ’98 Degrees At Christmas 2018’, but Jeffre’s heart is as much on the stage as it is helping the homeless. The Ohio-bred Jeffre is no stranger to politics—his Mayoral bid in 2005 taught him that real measurable change happens on issue-based levels and since then Jeffre has been an ardent activist for several political causes that are important to him. In this thoughtful conversation Jeffre talks to Alex about 98 Degrees’ plans for the future, his balance between music and activism and the urgent need for universal health care.
