Shownotes
The crew opens up this week with Ralo the Pimp breaking down his come-up and the moves he made during his time with Powerhouse Records. He's talking real numbers, real deals, and what it took to build that platform back in the day. The conversation flows into how the industry game has shifted since then, the politics behind getting placements, and why some artists stay relevant while others fade. Ralo gets into the specifics of what made Powerhouse work and the lessons he learned from that era that he's applying to his current grind. The guys also dive into his new music project—what's the vision, who's he working with, and how he's positioning himself in a market that's completely different from when he first came up. It's real talk about longevity, staying hungry, and adapting to the new wave while keeping that authentic street credibility intact. Plus, Ralo shares some unfiltered takes on current industry moves and what he's watching in the rap game right now.
