In this episode of No Lion No Bull, we sit down with Wade Gaffney Simmons, a Chicago native living a life most people couldn’t balance—funeral service worker, pro wrestler in training, and filmmaker.

Wade breaks down what it’s really like working in funeral services, how being around death sharpens discipline and perspective, and why he chose to pursue pro wrestling while building a voice in film. This is a real conversation about grit, purpose, mental toughness, and creating your own lane when life tells you to pick just one.

No hype. No fluff. Just real life, real work, and real discipline.

The music industry isn’t broken — it’s built this way.

In this episode of No Lion No Bull Podcast, we sit down with Bishop Ford for a real, unfiltered deep dive into the hip hop industry and the contracts that ruin artists before they ever get paid.

We break down:

• How record deals really work (not the Instagram version)
• Why most artists never see royalty checks
• The truth about advances, recoupment, and 360 deals
• How artists lose their masters — sometimes forever
• The biggest red flags hidden in music contracts
• What you MUST know before signing anything
• When staying independent is actually the smarter move

If you’re an artist, producer, manager, or creative, this is required listening.
No hype. No fairy tales. Just the real business behind hip hop.
