Jason Martin recalls the pains and pleasures of New York, then and now in Compton, California  on Oct 2, 2023. WILLIAM ANDRADE. 

COMPTON, Calif. — Change has been the focal point for Jason Martin formerly known as “Problem.” The name change shows the maturation of the rapper from Compton being part of or causing problems to now being solution based. Within his own personal modifications, he recently released a single based on the awkwardness he felt being able to smoke marijuana in New York as opposed to back in the day when it was illegal. 

The new single “I Can’t Believe (They’re Smoking Weed In Brooklyn)” is a breakthrough from his once traumatic experiences in New York to the joys of smoking in front of the police station while shooting the video for this track. He captures the full circle experience on this track which will lead into his new project “A Compton Story,” CD/DVD.  The Compton emcee has been staying busy with his music, movies, and “Coughie Talk” podcast. Idle times is for making monetization, and Jason Martin fully intends to capitalize.
