Host Lynae Vanee sits down with CEO Detavio Samuels, music exec Ray Daniels, motivational speaker Brandi Davis, and historian TL Cross to unpack the complex relationship Black Americans have with money, power, and respect. They explore how hip hop culture glorified the hustle, why some Black leaders fall into the trap of copying white power structures, and what happens when ambition goes wrong. From pre-colonial African wealth concepts to modern-day narcissism and greed, this deep dive shows the cost of chasing external validation. The conversation gets real about everything from Diddy's downfall to the illusion of social media success. Listen!
