Agent Sasco (Jeffrey Campbell), formerly known as Assassin, is a dancehall and reggae deejay from Jamaica, known for a commanding baritone voice, rapid-fire delivery and sharp, complex wordplay. Discovered by Spragga Benz as a teenager, he rose in the early 2000s with a string of hits on rhythms like the Diwali Riddim, then released the albums Infiltration (2005) and Gully Sit’n (2007) before shifting toward conscious roots reggae with Theory of Reggaetivity (2016) and Hope River (2018). He reached a global audience through verses on Kanye West’s “I’m In It” and Kendrick Lamar’s “The Blacker the Berry”, and co-founded Boardhouse Records for independent creative control.
