“They Don’t Want Us to Have the Info!” Math Hoffa, Ray Daniels & Obi Omile Expose the Game

In this powerful episode of Earn Your Leisure, we sit down with Math Hoffa, Ray Daniels, and Obi Omile to break down the intersection of culture, business, and creativity. They dive into how they came together to launch the Off The Top freestyle competition, how mixtapes reshaped freestyle culture, and what it takes to grade lyrical talent. Obi shares how he built and raised money for theCut—his revolutionary barber booking app—and the deeper role the barbershop plays in the Black community. We also unpack the mindset behind building businesses, why collaboration takes discipline, and the harsh truths about podcasting and monetization. From Ray’s Mount Rushmore of Atlanta rappers to the debate on new superstars in the music industry—this one is full of gems.
