As the creator of the Black Effect Podcast Network, co-host of the nationally syndicated iHeartRadio program The Breakfast Club and founder and investor of various business ventures across publishing, food and beverage, wellness and beyond, he will bring his expertise as an entrepreneur and celebrity multi-hyphenate to aid in MeetKai’s rapid commercialization and enable all creators monetize their content on the metaverse.
