When global streaming sensation IShowSpeed touched down in SA last week, the vibrant streets of Cape Town and Johannesburg became the stages for unfiltered, real-time experiences of SA culture.
Behind the scenes was photographer Lee-Roy Jason, the creative force who curated Speeds visit, who ensured every moment, from street games to viral dance-offs, authentically showcased the countrys community, energy and spirit.
Speaking exclusively to Sowetan, Jason reveals how he orchestrated Speeds SA tour, including the viral car-spin with Sam Sam, the spontaneous dance with Bontle Modiselle and Robot Boii, and what this trip means for local content creators aiming to shine on the global digital stage.
