Behind the Scenes with Al Harrington & Nucci Reyo

<p>Nucci Reyo wrote platinum records for Puff Daddy, R. Kelly, — and nobody knew his name. Al Harrington played 16 seasons in the NBA, made the Finals, and still wasn't the star. Two men from New Jersey. Both trapped doing invisible work for someone else's legacy. Then they stopped chasing. Nucci Reyo walked away from the industry at its peak and became one of gospel rap's most important voices — building Godify Streams, the only Christian streaming platform in the world, now in 152 countries. Al Harrington watched his 79-year-old grandmother heal in his garage — and turned that moment into Viola Brands, a multi-state cannabis company built to create 100 Black millionaires. This is what happens when the Ghost Trap becomes a classroom.</p><p></p><p>Follow @DareToCompareTV</p><p></p><p>#NBA #HipHop #Documentary #DareToCompareTV #NuccReyo #AlHarrington #GospelRap #ViолаBrands #NBADocumentary #HipHopHistory #BarsEqualBuckets #DareToCompareTV #GhostWriter #basketballandrap</p>
