Summary

Zack O'Malley Greenberg is an author and a former reporter at Forbes. I recently read the book "Empire State of Mind: How Jay-Z Went From Street Corner to Corner Office" which Zack wrote. I wanted to sit down and talk to him about how Jay-Z became a billionaire, lessons learned, what insights did he learn, and who else in the music industry, sports, or celebrity circuit will be the next Jay-Z.
