Ludacris - Fast and Philanthropic
Photo credit: Jamie Lamor Thompson / Shutterstock.com
Rapping since he was just nine years old, Ludacris is a multi-platinum-selling artist with three Grammy Awards and an MTV Video Music Award under his belt. But, not content to rest on his laurels, he’s also won a Screen Actors Guild Award and a Critic’s Choice Award for his role in Crash, and he’s been playing Tej Parker in the ongoing Fast & Furious film franchise since 2003.

Not content with keeping his success to himself, he founded The Ludacris Foundation to inspire urban youth to learn leadership skills and reach for their dreams through education and self-care.
In this episode, Ludacris joins us to discuss how he’s managed to assemble a support team that’s remained mainly intact for years without the need for written contracts, how his competitive nature drives him to excel, why he might just be the Where’s Waldo of hip-hop history, the truth behind rumors that he raps in his sleep, how much it costs to get a diamond-encrusted JIF peanut butter chain, and much more.
Listen, learn, and enjoy!

Coaching Testimonial
"My online love inspiration angel"
Submitted by: Patricia, USA, 21
To be honest, in the beginning, I thought it would be a waste of time. But since I've never seen a similar service in any other dating site, I decided to give it a try.
I always "thought" my profile was on point and I did not need any help to correct my page. I always had in my profile if someone is not attracted to my profile, then that's "their" loss.
BOY WAS I WRONG!!
I will never forget my first time using the Coaching Service I was introduced to my personal Dating Coach. Let me put it this way, if it was not for her I would have given up long time ago (even though I'm a new member).
She taught me so many things and gave me good advice, I did not want to stop chatting with her at all.
She opened my eyes to many possibilities when finding love. She is definitely an inspiration and I appreciate a whole lot. She is more than a Dating Coach to me; she is more of a close friend/guide to me. She is definitely my "online love-inspiration angel".
