Podcasts about Roc Nation Sports

Today marks the 55th birthday of Jay-Z, born Shawn Corey Carter on Dec. 4, 1969, in Brooklyn's Bedford-Stuyvesant neighborhood. Rising from hustling in the streets to building an empire, Jay-Z began his career as a rapper in 1989 with his first verse appearing on Jaz-O's “The Originators.” In 1996, he founded Roc-A-Fella Records and released Reasonable Doubt, a groundbreaking debut that cemented his status in hip-hop. Although he announced retirement after The Black Album in 2003, his return with The Blueprint 3 in 2009 secured his record for the most No. 1 solo albums. With over 50 million records sold and 17 Grammys, his influence transcends music. Jay-Z launched Roc-A-Wear, served as Def Jam president, and co-founded Roc Nation Sports. Happy birthday to the legendary Jay-Z! Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

Roc Nation is an undisputed juggernaut. Since Hip-Hop icon Jay-Z founded the company primarily with the intent of signing pop and rap artists in 2008, Roc Nation has grown into the world's preeminent entertainment company. Boasting clients such as Rihanna, DJ Khaled, Jess Glynne, and Alicia Keys, the company announced the formation of a game-changing sports management division, Roc Nation Sports, dedicated to sports representation for professional athletes in 2013. Michael Yormark was brought into the company a year later, and together, they've gone on to revolutionise the world of sports management forever. Meeting Michael at Roc Nation Sports International's London HQ, we spoke to him about being a disruptor, taking inspiration from his clients, the importance of leading by example, and much more. Here's what we discussed:Could you give us a snapshot of your working day? (00:10)Could you give us an overview of your career to date? (01:30)What drew you to sports as a career path? (03:48)You did a great job growing the Florida Panthers brand and that's what caught the eye of Jay-Z. How did you find the experience of growing a winter sport in a warm climate? (05:29)What made you switch over from the organisation side of the business to being a representative of athletes? (08:13)You've got big-name clients at Roc Nation Sports International, such as Kevin De Bruyne, Maro Itoje, Romelu Lukaku, and Siya Kolisi. Is there an X factor that draws you to an athlete that you want to represent? (10:23)You've taken a very specific stragetic move to sign Southern African athletes from a variety of sports. What led you to take such a disruptive decision? (12:57)Do you feel that working with high-performance athletes gives you extra drive with regard to your leadership? (16:05)Many leaders find themselves getting frustrated with the team around them for not being as high-performing as them, and not thinking in the same way as them. Is this something you've found while building your team at Roc Nation? (18:33)Do you believe that some British companies are missing out on growth potential by not tapping into strategic partnerships? (20:41)Why was it so important for you as an organisation to be vocal about societal issues such as racism, and to encourage your clients to do the same? (24:00)The Good News Postcard: If you had any three wishes, would it be and why? (26:56)What makes a great business leader to you?

Jay-Z's agency, Roc Nation Sports, recently opened their London office and have a football roster that includes De Bruyne & Lukaku. I was keen to find out from Mark Agyakwa what life behind the scenes at Roc is like.

Last week's Champions League results unearthed a viral debate around the decline in the quality of the Premier League. I could not think of anyone better than Mark Agyakwa, a member of the Roc Nation Sports family and a former data analyst of Europe's Top 5 Leagues, to debate and discuss this with. We spoke about whether such a decline exists & the main factors behind it. I hope you love this one!

“Jay-Z” Carter will soon acquire a “significant ownership interest” in an NFL team, reports TMZ, making him the first black person to be an owner in the league’s history. The team itself was not disclosed, but a source told the site that the deal is imminent and that Carter “wants to continue to be a change agent for the NFL”—the old, change the system from within, while of course profiting, which rarely works out because, by the time you look up, you’re Robert Johnson. During said presser, Jay did not do well when repeatedly asked about former NFL player Colin Kaepernick, who has been effectively blackballed from the league for kneeling for black lives during the 2017 NFL season. He defensively responded to questions about Kaepernick with statements such as: “I think we’re past kneeling...I think it’s time for action.” Jay previously owned a share of the NBA’s Brooklyn Nets, in which he purchased a $1 million stake in 2004, but even that deal was controversial in that many believe it sped up the hyper-gentrification tearing up his beloved, native Brooklyn. Jay has long been in the sports realm, and founded Roc Nation Sports management in 2013, which has signed players such as MLB’s Robinson Cano, the NBA’s Kyrie Irving, and the NFL’s Dez Bryant and Saquon Barkley. TMZ reports that because Jay is not “an NFL agent and does not take part in the operations of the NFL players in Roc Nation,” his interest in Roc Nation Sports would not preclude him from owning a team. Oh, and back to Kaepernick (because until he’s signed, it’s ALWAYS going to come back to that); Jay said during the Wednesday press conference that he spoke to Kaep, but Kaepernick’s longtime girlfriend Nessa Diab contradicted that. Kaepernick himself did not comment directly on the deal but tweeted that that very day marked the three year anniversary of the first time he took a stand (in this case, a seat) against “systemic oppression.” What’s really good? #realtalkpodcast --- Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/the6thman/support

Without question Adrien Broner vs Shawn Porter, on paper, is one of the more even match ups Premier Boxing Champions has delivered. Even if it's not good, we're basically being saturated with televised boxing cards. Enough that sub-par match ups can be ignored? No, but close. Apart from the #PBConNBC show, Roc Nation Sports makes its BET network debut with Andre Ward vs Paul Smith, on FoxSports, David Lemieux faces Hassan N'Dam, and on a rare Sunday show, CBS airs Antonio DeMarco vs Rances Barthelemy. That's without even going into the recapping we need to do... Erislandy Lara vs Delvin Rodriguez from Spike, Nicholas Walters vs Miguel Harriaga on HBO, Deontay Wilder barely surviving Eric Molina on Showtime. There's a ton. As usual, it's James Foley of Bad Left Hook and Patrick Connor of The Fight City bringing it all. Thanks for tuning in!

Tonight on The Ruckus, we turn our attention to some of the unsung heroes of the sport...women.  Joining us tonight are former 3 division world champ and current BKB lightweight champion Layla McCarter and IBA/UBF super bantamweight champion Shelly Vincent. Listen in as McCarter and Vincent discuss their upcoming plans as well as the potential for women in the US boxing landscape with the reemergence of the sport on multiple TV platforms. In addition, Jeandra and Ryan recap the weekend PBC and HBO cards. The show goes LIVE at 7PM PT. To speak to the hosts, dial 718.508.9852
