When your dad is covered in tattoos, rides motorcycles, plays bass in a metal band, and hangs out with rock stars, how do you possibly express your teenage angst? With the Backstreet Boys, naturally.
Such is the case with Nakoa-Wolf Momoa, the son of Lisa Bonet and star Jason Momoa. Jason—who stars alongside Dave Bautista in the Amazon Prime original film, The Wrecking Crew—shared the news of his son’s popstar rebellion while on the Feb. 6 episode of Track Star*.

The YouTube series has host Jack Coyne test celebrities’ knowledge as they listen blindly to a playlist of songs. When it got to Alice In Chains’ “Rooster,” Jason remarked about how he and Conye were “so lucky” to be alive at the time of grunge—except Jack, being 35, was a decade younger than the 46-year-old Jason.
“You had Alice In Chains, I had N*SYNC,” said Conye. “My MTV era was Brittney Spears, Backstreet Boys and N*SYNC. You had Nirvana.”
“You know what,” said Jason. “My son loves—I mean, he loves everything but is like so into like, a couple of Backstreet Boys songs. He sings them and, I think he does it just to rebel. That’s his rebellion. I used to listen to f—king Rage [Against the Machine] and all these other things. And he listens to Backstreet Boys.”
Described as “one of the most chaotic guests” on Track Star*, Jason was able to recognize almost every song on the Track Star* playlist. He instantly recognized Black Sabbath’s “Iron Man,” Metallica’s “For Whom The Bell Tolls,” Rage Against the Machine’s “Killing in the Name,” Alice in Chains’ “Rooster,” Nine Inch Nails’ “Closer,” Tool’s “Sober,” Iron Maiden’s “The Trooper,” and Korn’s “Freak on a Leash.”
The only one he missed was Helmet’s “Unsung” (though the YouTube description also listed “Last Caress” by The Misfits, which was probably a little too rowdy for the video if you know about the lyrics; better subscribe to the podcast feed).
Jason Momoa’s love of metal was on full display when he hosted Back to the Beginning, the jam-packed event that marked the final show for both Ozzy Osbourneas a solo artist and as part of heavy metal pioneers, Black Sabbath.
"It was an honor to even have my name as part of it," he told the BBC. “I just wanted to get tickets bro, and they're like 'would you host it?' What? What?”
"Every character I have ever played, Sabbath had one way in it or not,” he added. "There's something from Sabbath that has affected someone else who in turn helped me play that character. You don't think Aquaman didn't listen to Sabbath bro? Get out of here...you think I'm listening to Abba??!"
