Randy Jackson

Fans may know Randy Jackson as the long-time judge of American Idol, but there’s more to this iconic musician’s name. He started in the business as early as the ’80s. At the time, he’s a session musician, playing bass guitar for different music performers. Whether it’s rock, jazz, or pop, the now-64-year-old singer can effortlessly play it. From here, he started to work in music production.

In 2020, Randy once again played as the Journey’s bassist after the group’s sudden split with its member, Ross Valory. He’s once part of the group in 1986, filling the role for its 1985 album, Raise on Radio, and the band’s tour. The TV personality has also made an investment by producing a reality TV show on MTV, titled America’s Best Dance Crew, in 2008. The show ended in 2010 due to a rating decline. As of current, there’s no known show Randy has.
