The 22-year-old musician recently chatted with BBC Newsbeat about how inspiring the awards are to him.

“There are some really inspiring teens out there,” Jason shared. “And I know it will be inspiring to hear their stories. Hardships can make us stronger, you know, and through those we can grow and be something great and be an example. These teens are the future.”
