Part 1: Hit-Boy: I Spent $1M on My Dad's Rap Career, He Caught a New Case & Went Back to Prison

--------

DJ Vlad sits down with Grammy-winning producer Hit-Boy for a candid conversation about money, investing, and long-term wealth in hip-hop. Vlad explains how early stock market moves—starting with Google in 2011 and later investing in major companies like Amazon, Tesla and Apple—became central to his financial strategy beyond VladTV. Hit-Boy opens up about investing in himself, his studio setup, family, artists, and moving from a difficult deal to working with JP Morgan, money markets, the S&P 500 and NASDAQ.

The discussion also covers wealth managers, Warren Buffett, Benjamin Graham, real estate vs. stocks, prenups, divorce protection, and why Vlad says financial discipline mattered more than luxury spending. Vlad also recalls sharing stock advice with artists like Little Bibby, Mozzy and Boosie, while referencing Juice WRLD, Jay-Z, Forbes-level investing and the challenge of helping family without being taken advantage of.
