Career

Acting

Price's career began at the age of six.[1] His first notable role was of Jay Braddock, the eldest son of Russell Crowe and Renée Zellweger in the Ron Howard Academy Award Nominated feature Cinderella Man.[1] He is best known for portraying Kenny, the leader of the Boston vampire clan for two seasons of Syfy's Being Human and the role of Harry James in three seasons of CBC's World War II spy Drama X Company.[2][3][4]

In 2024, he made an appearance in season 6 of ABC police procedural The Rookie, portraying a DJ.[5]

Music

Price began to expand into hip hop music and rap in the late 2010s. His series-turned-album Spin the Globe, in which he would spin a globe and collaborate with an artist from whichever country his finger landed on, first went viral in 2022. After collaborating with 7 artists from countries such as Zambia, South Africa and India, he released "Spin the Globe" on January 27, 2023.[6] As of February 2024, Spin the Globe has racked up over 400 million streams on Spotify alone.[7] A sequel "Spin the Globe 2" was released on February 23, 2024, using the same concept.[8]

Since branching out into music, Price has generated worldwide success. In 2023, his music received over a billion streams across multiple streaming platforms, including over 650 million on Spotify.[9]
