‘Platinum’ Takes Hip-Hop Culture Mainstream

Jason George, who stars in the new UPN hip hop show ‘Platinum’ is making lofty comparisons of the show ahead of its debut tonight. “This is The Godfather of hip-hop – it has that kind of weight,” George said. “I have the honor of playing the Michael Corleone character. He’s the younger brother struggling to hold the family together while trying to take the business to the next level.”
