Jay-Z's Business Partner: How To Transform Your Passion Into Profit (& make MILLIONS)
In this episode, we welcome Fanatics CEO Michael Rubin: a distinguished businessman and social justice advocate known for spearheading several multibillion-dollar direct-to-consumer ventures, specifically in licensed merchandise, trading cards, and sports betting. Michael provides meaningful insights into the common pitfalls in brand building, loving what you do, and the flaws of the United States criminal justice system.
Michael shares how his journey in entrepreneurship began, his eyewitness account of unfairness in the American court system, working with Meek Mill, Jay-Z, and Desiree Perez of Roc Nation to spearhead the Reform Alliance, and how to balance work and family life. Throughout the conversation, he discusses the pursuit of exceptional talent, how routine-setting positively impacts productivity, and the strategic setting of billion-dollar goals.

@ Jay Shetty Podcast… people should have known you’re a fake as soon as you started being around with celebrities 😂 🚩 sorry J. Robin Sharma. You’ve read the book. It’s amazing right.
We need an assertive class from Mr. Rubin, dude is the real deal.

His charisma is next level. You can tell he goes all in on his hustle 100%..
Why did you choose to go with Jay-Z's business partner instead of saying Michael Rubin?

Humble? You don't know shit about him, what do you expect from him when he's infront of the camera?
this is top 10 interviews on how to accomplish what you want online period.
This guy definitely deserves a Netflix documentary
He's pretty inspiring but I'm trying to figure out why he was slacking off the first 7 years of his life.

Maybe he had a good reason
Amazing he is such a great inspiration for all of us tnx jay all the way from Ethiopia!!!!
As a person that is putting my business together (for the first time) and have zero experience and am very scared, this motivated and helped me to continue and keep going forward
I love this!! It spoke to my spirit!! Let's get it done!!!
Ekla Chalo Re (Rabindranath Tagore) If they answer not to your call walk alone If they are afraid and cower mutely facing the wall, O thou unlucky one, open your mind and speak out alone. If they turn away, and desert you when crossing the wilderness, O thou unlucky one, trample the thorns under thy tread, and along the blood-lined track travel alone. If they shut doors and do not hold up the light when the night is troubled with storm, O thou unlucky one, with the thunder flame of pain ignite your own heart, and let it burn alone. . This poem & it's creator needs invasion..🔥🔥😤😤
Amazing episode! Big fan of Fantatics so it was awesome to hear how Michael thinks,. His routines. Candor about his negatives and how he uses them to be better and do better.
The podcast l truly believe l will keep following in 2024 to make more impactful differences in my growth and life ahead! Surprise to not see the description on this episode. Keep up the great work Jay 😊❤
So cool to know that Fanatics isn't just a great name for a business that caters to fans...but Michael Rubin really is a "fanatic" when it comes to life, business, and entrepreneurship. It's inspiring, because he's authentic.
Think you did him kinda dirty with the title bruh 😭Michael Rubin's name can definitely stand on its own.
The best creative channel Ive found to date.
This resonate with me don't be afraid to fail or your never going to take the shot. I have missed out on alot of business opportunities because I was afraid that I would fail.

Being fearless isn’t enough. I’ve been fearless my whole life. Let’s be real, success is mainly based on natural born abilities, mixed with luck. Even people who say, I put in the work and learned new skills…. Guess what, being diligent and learning new skills, are actually natural born skills in most cases. Some people just learn easier than others, some people have a better chemical balance in their brain to stay focused, a lot of it also has to do with health more than people care to admit. And not everyone starts at 0 in life, a lot of people start at -1000. The truth is, a lot of people’s success has a lot more luck than they care to admit.

O wow i love youu. You made me feel so normal. I don't have much of a work-life balance. I love that mindset if you disconnect it is like you are taking away from the other.
great show- Mike Rubin is the real deal!
Thank you for sharing this interview. Your absolutely right when you said we need to hear this. This interview was packed with great advice.
this guy is a dawg. no wonder he's in the position he is with Fanatics!
Hey Jay, awesome interview.." no but!!! Just go for it" Am an entrepreneur in startup stage...in the phase of Collaborating Connecting... I feel stock lacking the motivation from not being around like minded people. Would love an interview with entrepreneur's who struggled with this and able to find that team to connect and Collaborating.

Great point Lisa. Its the dilemma for most start ups - finding a tribe with likeminds. What sector are you looking to operate? Mind sharing? I'm an entrepreneur myself.
Omg thank you for saying big/major companies also have things they suck at. That is soo real
Thank you so much for sharing this amazing video ❤❤❤
This is amazing. Thank you for sharing :)

I feel like you guys should change the title of this video. Michael Rubin was making big moves before Jay Z. To belittle him as “Jay’s business partner” to get views is disrespect to his brand. I met him and his wife personally, he super’s humble and down to earth & cares about Philly.
i already resonate with what mr rubin is saying.He said " i Love to hustle, i think i came out of my mothers womb as a entrepreneur. And the way he learns is taking a little bit from the people he knows and mix all that shit up! Thank god i stop watching Andrew tate nterview with Piers Morgan and started watching this. LETS MAKE THIS MONEY NYC!~
Amazing 😍
Great interview....
I like this 👌 😊
Out of the whole interview the thing that hit hardest for me was Jays comment about Disneyworld. I haven’t started my business yet but I know exactly what I want to do and a lot of it is based around how Disney makes people feel. I’ve been studying and visiting that place for years - this has let me know I’m on the right track 🙏🏻
I want to ask a question from pyarey afzal miyan....do lord shiva or goddess kali have any planning & strategy for those ,who don't believe in the idea of submission & surrender.??.,🔥🔥
I'm gonna write bigger goals
Hi @JayShetty, thanks for inspiring and helping me to live better. I have been following you and your wisdom from many years and it has impacted me and my loved ones in many ways. I am not a business expert 😅 but I am wondering if I can give you one suggestion to save some money for your dress. You don’t have to change your dress on every podcast, I mean I love seeing you in different dress but if you make a same dress like a company’s dress, you don’t have to change dress or may be you don’t have to worry about what to wear. Just my suggestion or I would even like to consider it as care for this very valuable podcast on the planet ❤💙. Peace --Pramod
Fav .. any relation to Rick Rubin??
Michael Rubin 👏
Civilization is very fragile, all it takes is a few decades of chaos for us to forget humanity and turn into animals. Our base natures can take over very fast. We can forget that we are sentient beings, with laws and codes and ethics. Amish Tripathi.
you are the best😍😍😍😍
I think you should have Micheal Rubin BOLD AND CAPITAL NOT JAYZ's PARTENER.
Great podcast! As much as I love Jay-Z - you're doing Mr. Rubin wrong for net mentioning him by name in the title!
I love ❤❤it
So much knowledge and I can’t believe meek got sentenced for popping a wheely smh crazy ! Fix the system !
Curious about what Kanye said about him, was that discussed?
Loved it
High energy. I still feel that when you are on your death bed, will you say I’m happy on what I did in my life?
I love Jay Shetty’s channel and he always brings amazing people with very valuable interviews however, this one fell below the average. It lacked honesty from the guest. My opinion is that no one comes out of womb knowing how to do business at the age of 8. It gotta have something to do with the way his parents raised him in early age, interactions with people, dynamics with family like siblings or relatives, crucial experiences, family background etc. the way he talks about himself seems like it comes from a place of ego rather than willingness to teach or show the world useful info. Saying that entrepreneurship is not for everybody and you gotta try it, sorry but that’s not original. Everyone knows that.
Why this title?

Well, the sentence made by Micheal again that you Can't win without a great talent, I again totally disagree with that point. There are points in life where Talent could be a waste when compared to hard work.
Hi guys I am from India Love you too much all ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
No one is born with a specific skill people, that point by Micheal that he was born with it, I totally disagree and made me roll out laughing. Generally every single day you shape your mind into something you really want to and when you start that, consciously or subconsciously your mind, brain, body mutate itself to offer you that as long as you don't quit that one thing you're building in yourself.
How about writing his name in the title aswell instead of just "Jay Zs business partner"
I am from india but in such videos i cant recognize the voice of foreigner so please write down talk to the video while playing
