The 5 questions I ask in this episode:
- At the start of your career, you were mentored by DJ Clue. What advice did he give you that helped you break into the music business?
- How did you, Angela Yee, and Charlamagne tha God come together to form The Breakfast Club and why do you think that collaboration has been so effective?
- In Real Life, Real Love, you talk openly about your 27-year relationship with your wife. How did all of the obstacles you both face create a stronger relationship instead of ending it?
- What have you learned about building a healthy relationship with your wife, and what do you think she’s learned from you?
- Back in 2017, I asked Charlamagne for his best piece of career advice and he said “Live your truth. Honesty is always the best policy.” What’s your best piece of career advice?
