Today I sit down with Zuby, the British-Nigerian rapper, author, podcaster, and fitness expert. Zuby built a global brand independently, reaching #12 on the iTunes Hip Hop Chart and amassing over 2 million followers without the backing of a major record label.

Zuby shares his journey from selling CDs on the streets of London to performing on top platforms like The Joe Rogan Experience and The Rubin Report. Learn his strategies for leveraging social media, overcoming industry challenges, and integrating health and mindset into his business approach. Zuby also delves into his perspectives on societal polarization, the importance of empathy, and maintaining authenticity in a divided world.
