“Da Man behind the scene”

Founder & Executive, W3 Music Group, Inc.
Cornelius Jackson is an entertainment leader who is proud to continue his family’s deep connection to Memphis music royalty. Born in Memphis, Tennessee, along the powerful Mississippi, his lineage connects him to his mother, Eva Johnson, and his father, the iconic Raymond Earl Jackson Sr.—a legendary producer, songwriter, and guitarist renowned for his work at Stax and Volt Records. As the son of the brilliant mind who co-wrote and shaped timeless classics like “Who’s Making Love,” “If Loving You Is Wrong,” and the Staple Singers’ hits “Are You Sure” and “Touch a Hand, Make a Friend,” Cornelius learned early on to respect the power of a great song. For him, music is not just a career, but a lifelong calling and ancestral heritage built right into his DNA.

“CorNes Production”

Driven by a passion for songwriting, composing, and engineering, CorNe set out to establish his own mark. He began his journey by acquiring his father’s music catalog from Rondor Music International, honoring his heritage while carving his own path with CorNes Production. Self-taught in the nuances of the music industry, Cornelius delved into producing, arranging, and composing music that resonates with authenticity and truth. His vision extended to forming W3 Music Group, Inc. alongside his brother, Raymond Jr., driven by a deep belief in their collective potential, unity, and shared destiny.
Operating at the intersection of this profound local legacy and a vital global vision, Jackson focuses on creating songs with integrity and reality, infusing his music with a vibrant pulse and thought-provoking lyrics. His latest project, “Divided Nation,” is a thoughtful yet powerful musical wake-up call meant to bring people together while talking honestly about decades of systemic racism, political divides, and world problems. To make sure the music preserves the sonic excellence and historic hit-making power of the golden era, he was grateful to partner with veteran mastering engineer Larry Nix. Together, they elevate the soulful essence of “STAX FLAVOR” in R&B to new heights by blending its richness with contemporary technology. This creates timeless bass lines and a modern message designed to encourage everyday citizens to unite and spark real political change at the ballot box. Guided by his faith and sharp strategy, Jackson remains focused on building an independent commercial empire that honors where the music came from, while doing his part to drive the conversation toward where the world needs to go.
