In this episode of Let’s Be Blunt with Montel, we’re joined by the multi-talented JoJo Simmons, a name synonymous with entertainment, entrepreneurship, and advocacy.
As the son of hip-hop legend Rev Run of Run DMC, JoJo grew up in the spotlight, starring in MTV’s Run’s House and WE TV’s Growing Up Hip Hop. But his story goes far beyond reality TV.
JoJo is the CEO and co-founder of Whos House Entertainment, a music production company dedicated to developing artists, and the general manager of Whos House Ballers, a traveling basketball team for underserved youth in Queens, NY.
He’s also making waves in the mental health space with his For Good Podcast, where he tackles raw, soul-level conversations about mental health, personal growth, and living with intention.
In this candid conversation, JoJo opens up about his journey from growing up in hip-hop royalty to carving his own path as a creative powerhouse and advocate.
We’ll dive into his work with nonprofits like the Cannabis Voter Project and The Last Prisoner Project, his passion for holistic wellness, and his mission to amplify underrepresented voices through his media company, 3isFor.
JoJo also shares insights on fatherhood, leadership, and the lessons he’s learned building multiple successful ventures. Plus, he gives us a glimpse into his latest projects, including a veteran transition home in Atlanta and his vision for the future of the music industry.
This is an episode packed with inspiration, purpose, and unfiltered conversation.
