He shares the untold story of coming to America without speaking English, how avoiding deportation pushed him into rap, and the journey from the Bronx to becoming one of hip-hop’s biggest global stars. He breaks down the realities of the music business, explaining why he went independent, why he’ll never sign another record deal, how record deals are structured, why many artists aren’t truly independent, and his plan to re-record his biggest hits to regain ownership. He also shares why even successful artists can’t always count on recouping from music sales. Beyond music, French opens up about building wealth through investing, losing $5 million in the FTX collapse, the lessons he learned from spending time with sheikhs, and why he believes Africa has a massive future. This is a masterclass on ownership, business, legacy, and long-term thinking. #EarnYourLeisure #FrenchMontana #HipHop #MusicBusiness #IndependentArtist #Ownership #Investing #Entrepreneurship #Wealth #Africa #FTX #Podcast #FinancialFreedom Subscribe and watch more videos here: https://www.youtube.com/@EarnYourLeisure Join the EYL community for deeper training and a more detailed approach:https://www.eyluniversity.com Join the number one stock club in the world:https://www.ianinvest.com Invest Fest | August 7-9, 2026Grab early bird tickets now: https://www.investfest.comSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
