He quickly garnered attention with his breakout role as Jay Braddock, the eldest son of Russell Crowe and Renée Zellweger, in Ron Howard’s Academy Award-nominated film Cinderella Man (2005).

His voice acting work in animated series also added to his diverse skill set.

While Price’s acting career flourished, he began to pivot toward music in the late 2010s, expanding his creative reach into hip hop.
