  • Faith, Patience & the “Get Rich Slow” Mindset

    Faith, Patience & the “Get Rich Slow” Mindset
    2026/03/11
    What does FYM really mean? In this episode Ty & Yoh challenge the idea that wealth is only about dollars and instead redefine it as freedom of time, strong boundaries, and self-respect. Drawing inspiration from Epistle of James (James 1:19–20), Ty & Yoh explore the power of being quick to listen, slow to speak, and slow to anger—a mindset that can protect your peace while building real wealth. They contrast today’s “get rich quick” mentality with a “get rich slow” philosophy, using lessons from Book of Genesis—including the stories of Eve, Lot's Wife, and Abraham—to illustrate the dangers of impatience, shortcuts, and ignoring sound guidance. Ty also opens up about how faith and spirituality can strengthen character, especially when navigating the temptations and pressures of the entertainment and music industries. Sometimes choosing integrity may mean making less money in the short term—but gaining peace, clarity, and a good name that lasts. The episode also honors the memory of Yoh’s late friend Shanae and celebrates International Women's Day and Women's History Month by spotlighting the Empower U Grant, an initiative through Colture Cares that awards roughly five $10,000 grants from a pool of 2,000–2,500 applicants to help women build sustainable, infrastructure-focused businesses. Plus, they share updates on The Colture Playbook Volume 2, with pre-orders open now and dropping fully March 24th, along with upcoming book tour plans and how listeners can order signed copies directly. If you're building wealth, navigating entrepreneurship, or trying to stay grounded while chasing success, this conversation is a reminder that true FYM starts with discipline, faith, and the patience to play the long game.

    When Is The Love Unhealthy | Episode Revisit
    2026/02/04
    Picture this: a spirited summer in New Orleans, where the vibrant city becomes the backdrop for a journey through love, personal growth, and the dynamics of business collaborations. That's where we bring you back to the 3rd episode of Season 1 of FYM with Ty and Yoh. We're diving into the heart of love in all its forms—self-love, unconditional love for others, and the respect needed in professional realms. Our discussion takes on the notion that love, when genuine, forms the bedrock of supportive communities and successful ventures. As we reflect on our own experiences, particularly through the lens of post-pandemic life, we discover how true success isn't just about financial gain but shared triumphs. As capitalists with a conscience, we explore a world where professional accountability and human connection aren't mutually exclusive. We've faced our own communication struggles, sought therapy, and learned to balance the demands of financial responsibilities with the richness of human bonds. This episode brings you insights into how wealth influences perspectives and patience, and we challenge the age-old belief that money is life's ultimate currency. Instead, we advocate for a mindset shift where human relationships take precedence, even as we navigate the complexities of business, love, and financial obligations. Our conversation gets personal as we unpack the impact of unhealthy love on financial decision-making, with stories that underline the necessity of strategic planning and financial independence. We also share our journeys, particularly the transition from the world of sports to the music industry, illustrating the courage required to chase one's passions and break free from unfulfilling paths. It’s all about embracing the power of FYM—not just the financial freedom it offers, but the bravery it provides to walk away from anything that doesn't serve your true purpose. Join us as we encourage you to evaluate your life, prioritize your ambitions, and take those bold steps toward a future filled with purpose and fulfillment.

  • What Does Legacy Mean To You?

    What Does Legacy Mean To You?
    2026/01/07
    This episode being our season finale marks more than an ending—it’s an intentional exit from one chapter into the next. In this powerful final episode, Ty & Yoh explore what a “finale” really means across biblical, business, and creative lenses, reframing it as preparation, not closure. Ty challenges the way we talk about legacy, defining it not as an abstract idea but as a business plan for your estate—a practical, actionable strategy designed to ensure that ten years of work can last for a century through proper planning, trusts, and ownership structures. At the center of this vision is Culture Holdings, described as a “cultural BlackRock,” investing in music, sports, and media while integrating foundational technologies like AI and renewable energy. This episode unpacks a new American dream—one rooted in cultural leverage, community creativity, and real equity. Ty shares a case study that embodies this philosophy: a 2016 partnership with artist Brent that began with a $35,000 investment and grew into businesses valued at $127 million by early 2025. By breaking an artist globally without a major label and achieving “unicorn” status, Ty now steps into a new role as an architect and guide for established artists and their teams. The conversation ultimately centers on preserving Black intellectual property, ensuring creative work doesn’t vanish due to poor estate planning. Drawing inspiration from conversational and culturally disruptive voices like Gil Scott-Heron, Bob Dylan, and Amy Winehouse, this finale serves as both a reflection and a blueprint for what comes next. If you’re thinking about ownership, legacy, estate planning, creative entrepreneurship, or the future of culture-driven business, this season finale sets the stage for the next era.

    The Colture Playbook and Mastering The Music Business
    2025/11/26
    In this episode, we break down the powerful connection between discipline, cultural capital, and financial independence in the music industry with Ty as he gives us a deep dive into The Colture Playbook, Vol. 1. We open by exploring why discipline is one of the most overlooked success drivers in today’s music landscape. Ty explains how consistent habits, intentional decision-making, and long-term thinking separate rising artists from those who burn out—especially in an industry where time, money, and opportunities are often wasted. We dive deep into the concept of cultural capital and how it gives young artists access to rooms, relationships, and resources without traditional financial backing. Ty introduces the idea of the “$30,000-a-year mentality”—a practical framework for building financial discipline, staying grounded, and creating sustainable growth in your music career. You’ll also learn about unconventional funding methods for independent artists looking to maintain ownership and control. From protecting your masters and licenses to understanding how music licensing works (think “renting a house” but for your art), Ty breaks down strategies that help artists stay empowered. We discuss alternatives to predatory label advances and payday-loan-style deals—highlighting tools like Sound Royalties, American Express, and PayPal working capital that can help artists secure funding without losing their creative or financial rights. The episode closes with an essential walk-through of a complete artist management checklist—covering music registration, touring logistics, brand development, online presence, and everything artists should have in place before scaling up. We also look ahead to Colture Playbook Volume 2, the next guide designed to elevate creators with even sharper insights and strategies. Throughout the conversation, we highlight the importance of integrity, accountability, and community, especially among Black professionals navigating the music business. This episode is a must-listen for artists, managers, entrepreneurs, and anyone seeking smarter, more sustainable ways to build a career in today’s music ecosystem. Learn more about your ad choices.
