The year 2020 will be forever known as COVID-19. Over 290,000 families lost a loved one and endured immeasurable pain. The entire world is living in a new normal, including people wearing masks, social distancing, and being afraid to assemble in massive group settings. The music industry was struck increasingly challenging and fast by COVID-19 in 2020.
Artist’s ability to perform live and tour, which generate millions of dollars, was halted entirely in 2020. Recording artists scrambled to find alternative methods to generate money and stay afloat financially. The word ‘HUSTLE’ has many forms of definition. To the general masses, it means “to force one’s way or proceed to work rapidly.”
Black people’s definition of hustle means “make a way out of no way.” Every day is marked as do or die in the jungle known as the ‘hood.’ Every second means eat or be eaten, and street rules of engagements are held to the highest standards.
Hip-Hop is the #1 music genre worldwide and influences all human races and ethnicities. Music is the universal language of the world and provides therapy for people’s souls. CEO and Major Recording Artist Don Chief is an original classic in rap culture. Born in the trenches of unconventional pain and struggle, God gifted Don Chief with ‘Championship DNA.’ They say, “don’t mess with Texas,” which includes ‘Don Chief.’
Every time you look into the eyes of Don Chief, a person feels an immediate connection of leadership and security. His history and personal reputation are certified on every block in Texas. Being a natural-born leader comes with an abnormal capacity of pressure and expectation from family, friends, and ultimately life.
In 2014, Don Chief launched the ‘Eatgreedy Music Group’ multimedia imprint. ‘Eatgreedy Music Group’ encompasses a music label, clothing line, television, and film production, divisions. ‘Eatgreedy Music Group’ and all its subsidiaries create strategic business opportunities for emerging artists and actors.
The ‘Eatgreedy’ music imprint has amassed 5,000,000 digital streams across all platforms in 5+ years. The shadow of great expectation looms largely over Don Chief, reflecting in his tireless work ethic. COVID-19 changed generated an incalculable amount of loss in 2020. COVID-19 forced the music industry to alter its business model by 180 degrees.
Don Chief understands the pressure to succeed in 2021 amongst COVID-19’s presence. Don Chief’s mentality is designed ‘WAR READY,’ and he never flinches in moments of high stakes and uncertainty. Don Chief fully understands that ‘heavy is the head that wears a crown’, and in 2021, his reign will continue.

In a world overflowing with content, standing out isn’t easy. Yet hip-hop veterans Fat Joe and Jadakiss have managed to launch one of the most impactful new shows in podcasting. Their collaboration, “Joe & Jada,” is already a chart-topper, a viral sensation, and a cultural talking point.
A Powerful Launch
When the podcast premiered earlier this year, skeptics wondered whether the rap legends could hold attention outside of music. The numbers answered quickly: millions of streams within weeks, thousands of five-star reviews, and near-constant chatter on social media.
Clips spread daily across TikTok, Instagram, and X (formerly Twitter). Fans shared moments of unfiltered honesty, like Joe’s reflections on losing friends in the industry or Jadakiss laughing about a childhood story in Yonkers.
Recognition Beyond Music
Industry recognition followed fast. Complex named “Joe & Jada” one of the Top 10 Hip-Hop Podcasts of the year and highlighted it among the Top 15 Cultural Podcasts overall. Such rankings elevated the show from “celebrity side project” to “must-listen media property.”
“This is about honesty,” Fat Joe said in a recent interview. “People know the hits, but here we share what happens outside the booth.”
Jadakiss echoed the sentiment: “We wanted to give the culture something uncut. No scripts. Just the real.”
Authentic Conversations at the Core
What separates “Joe & Jada” is that it doesn’t feel like a promotional platform. Many celebrity podcasts exist primarily to push products or brands. Here, the conversation takes center stage.
Listeners have praised the mix of humor and depth. One episode may be full of belly laughs, while the next might feature sobering discussions about violence, loyalty, or perseverance in an unforgiving industry. That duality — the ability to laugh and reflect in the same breath — resonates widely.
Breaking Out Across Platforms
Spotify streams. Apple Podcasts reviews. YouTube comments. Everywhere you look, “Joe & Jada” is sparking dialogue. The show has already landed in the trending section multiple times and sits near the top of entertainment podcast charts.
Celebrity guests have added to the momentum. Surprise appearances from athletes and fellow rappers give episodes extra energy. But fans consistently say the real draw is the dynamic between Joe and Jada themselves.
The Road Ahead
The success of season one is fueling bigger plans. According to industry insiders, live tapings are being developed in major cities, where fans can experience the banter in person. Branded partnerships with fashion and beverage companies are also in the works.
But Jadakiss insists the heart won’t change: “We can do live shows, we can do deals, but the vibe stays the same. No filter. No fluff.”
A Legacy Reinforced
For Fat Joe and Jadakiss, this is more than a podcast — it’s another chapter in legacies already written in platinum. Both men are regarded as pillars of hip-hop’s history, and with “Joe & Jada,” they’re proving they’re just as relevant in 2025 as they were in 2005.

Born in the Storm, Becoming the Storm: The Immortal Rise of Liyah The Libra”
Los Angeles, CA — 2025 – In Hip-Hop, survival stories are plenty. But few artists have the ability to transform survival into soundtracks the way Liyah The Libra does. Her path from homelessness and despair to a record deal with AllWins Entertainment is remarkable. Yet, what truly sets her apart is her rare gift of storytelling, cadence, and lyrical delivery—a gift that positions her as one of the most important new voices of her generation.
A Rare Gift: Storytelling, Cadence, and Delivery
Liyah The Libra doesn’t just rap—she translates life. With every verse, she captures the unspoken emotions of her listeners, turning private struggles into public anthems. Her cadence is sharp and fluid, effortlessly weaving rhythm with raw honesty. Her delivery strikes with precision—sometimes soft as a whisper, sometimes cutting like a blade—always authentic, always true.
She transforms street dreams into aspirational lyrics, giving voice to Gen Z’s deepest fears and wildest ambitions. To hear her rap is to hear a diary written for the dream chasers of today’s Hip-Hop culture—authentic, cinematic, and timeless.
The New Face of Artistic Freedom
In an era where many chase algorithms and viral trends, Liyah The Libra represents something rarer: artistic freedom. Her music isn’t manufactured for clicks—it’s birthed from lived experience, solitude, and fire-forged resilience. She is the sound of independence, proving that Gen Z artists don’t need to conform to the industry’s rules to make an impact.
Her journey—from growing up without parents, to nights in her car facing repossession, to finally earning her place in the spotlight—has made her a symbol of what’s possible when you refuse to surrender. Within Gen Z Hip-Hop, she embodies freedom: the freedom to tell your truth, to chase your dream with no Plan B, and to become your own force of nature.
WINNER: An Anthem of Pain and Triump
Her breakout single, “WINNER”, is the perfect embodiment of her journey. It isn’t just a song—it’s a statement. With blistering cadence and heartfelt delivery, Liyah channels her pain into a motivational Hip-Hop anthem for every dreamer who’s been told they won’t make it.
“Every night I spent in my car, I reminded myself that my pain would one day be my power,” she says. That prophecy became music, and that music became movement.
AllWins Entertainment and RADIOPUSHERS Amplify Her Vision
Her gift caught the attention of Grammy Award-winning artist Eric Bellinger, who signed her to AllWins Entertainment in 2025. Bellinger saw in Liyah a reflection of the same relentless drive that built his own career—a hunger to rise above obstacles and craft music that lasts forever.
Her anthem also reached Jonathan P-Wright, Chief Visionary Officer of RADIOPUSHERS, who moved swiftly to secure “WINNER” into regular rotation on 99.7 DA HEAT MIAMI (iHeartRadio). For RADIOPUSHERS, supporting Liyah wasn’t just about a record—it was about celebrating the legacy of Bellinger and shining a light on Hip-Hop’s next great storyteller.
“WINNER is more than a record,” Wright said. “It’s the sound of Hip-Hop and its future colliding. Supporting Liyah is also our way of honoring Eric Bellinger’s vision—because every time she wins, AllWins Entertainment shines even brighter.”
The Immortal Rise of Liyah The Libra
Liyah’s story is the storm, and her music is the light guiding others through it. She is no longer the child forced to navigate life without parents, nor the young woman writing rhymes from a car parked under shadows. She is the new face of artistic freedom in Gen Z Hip-Hop—an artist who redefines resilience, reimagines storytelling, and reshapes culture.
“Everybody has a sad story,” she says. “Mine isn’t an excuse. Mine is a weapon.”
With “WINNER” igniting the airwaves, the support of AllWins Entertainment, and RADIOPUSHERS amplifying her every step, Liyah The Libra is proving that roses don’t just bloom in the concrete—they rise into the storm and become immortal.
