James Andrews is the definition of a hustler. He moves with ease through music, technology, investment circles — collecting and connecting.

He came through the studio to shed light on the launch of his new venture: The Authenticated, which is part members-only social network, part brand advisor and startup factory. He shares some great stories from his journey and helps us understand how hip hop has impacted business as much as it has culture, and how you can launch a startup the way you would break a record.
