The Authority On All Things R&B !
On this week's episode of The R&B Money Podcast, Tank and J Valentine sit down with the legendary Lil Ronnie to discuss the Kansas City producer's decorated catalog of hit records spanning his over 20 years in music, get the inside stories behind some of his biggest tracks, and chop it up about how he was able to successfully transition from hitmaker to mogul-in-the-making by making smart investments and building his own studio. From playing saxophone and selling $50 beats in middle school, to having multiple homes and facilities, to R Kelly's method-writing -this one is for the books! Lil Ronnie on The R&B Money Podcast!

Major themes from this episode: 1. You reap what you sow. His family being a blessing to others, led others to be a blessing to him. 2. Stay focused. He bought items that further developed his skills not clothes, shoes, etc. while still a teenager. 3. Invest wisely

This was a great episode!!!! And 21 gun salute to J for standing up for Lil Ronnie. Now I think y'all should have Harvey and Damon on to see why they did that. I'm still waiting on Joe, Raheem DeVaughn, Bilal, Faith Evans, Tamia, Anthony Hamilton, Monica, Brandy, Bobby Brown, Chris Brown, Silk, Keith Sweat, and Teddy Riley.
The top 5 trapped in the closet version. You think that nga Tank better than me? 😭😭😭 Great episode🥰
Tank’s face when J asked that Django question got me in tears. He was so not prepared 😭😭😭
J laugh makes everything more funny!!
I love the friendships J & Tank have with their guests! The Benz story was hilarious, at least J daddy tried to get it fixed!!! 😂
Every Saturday I’m here at the R&B Money podcast…must see for me!
This has got to be the most I have EVER hear J talk during an interview and I..... LOVED IT!!!!! Everything about this episode was just... chef's kiss. Soooo, when is J telling HIS story????!!!! Hmmmmm???? Tank was already in the hot seat.
When J said 'it's a pissing contest' at 1:40:10 lmao.....bruh the word 'pissing' and R Kelly should never be used in the same sentence again 😂
