We had another surprise visit before the year ended. We were fortunate to get a sit down with Young Money's best kept secret Euro comes on to the podcast to tell us all about how life has been since he was added to the Young Money roster in 2013.  First we talk about Euro's upbringing in the church and how spirituality led his father to the opportunity to study Theology at Harvard. The church he went to gave Euro the chance to practice performing in front of people at the talents shows but also battle rapping in free-styling in the streets of Providence, RI. After high school he moves away to go to Alabama State University and following the steps of his big brother, he plays college baseball. Much like his position, middle infielder, Euro was torn between being a baseball player or chasing his dreams of becoming a rapper.  His bars and flow impressed his brother so much that his brother showed his music off to everybody and then somehow his music landed into Mack Maine's ears and then into Lil Wayne
