Gary Vaynerchuk
About this episode

Atlanta is the epicenter of hip hop, and I get so excited when I come across artists from that region that I really believe in. This is a meeting I had with Lil’ Keed — an Atlanta rapper who performed at our VaynerSports x One37pm party.

He’s dropping an album in March 2019 with some really smart promotion strategies. Listen, and tweet me what you thought @GaryVee!
