MCEOs

What emcees do you think really made the transition from the studio to the boardroom well?

I'm just wondering because with the music game the way it is right now, I think more emcees should be looking past the mic to get their paper.

Those three were successful on both that you even hear other rappers who don't like them complement their hustle.; ▶ Reply to This

Dude is about to go head to head (not sure how successfully) with BET and drop the BBTV Network (Better Black Television). Like I said don't know how successful it would be and I don't know if we "really" need another BET-like network, but you gotta respect the hustle and the funds it takes to start your own network.; ▶ Reply to This
