Meet Young Spliff

Alright – so today we’ve got the honor of introducing you to Young Spliff. We think you’ll enjoy our conversation, we’ve shared it below.

Hi Young Spliff, thanks for sharing your insights with our community today. Part of your success, no doubt, is due to your work ethic and so we’d love if you could open up about where you got your work ethic from?

I get my work ethic from my mother. Growing up, I watched her work for other people become one of the Top employees and quit that to go and create her own businesses not just one but multiple always striving to do more and do better not just for herself obviously, you know for the family. I’m pretty sure that’s where I get it from. That amazing woman.

Let’s take a small detour – maybe you can share a bit about yourself before we dive back into some of the other questions we had for you?

Im the president and cofounder of more money than yesterday entertainment. we founded this company about two years ago. I love what I do. I started off as an artist. I’m in love with music. That’s my passion. We created this company off of just having great times we realized that Miami doesn’t have any real major labels down here to represent the artist or to even pick an artist up to help them level up into something that they actually can push and be. And me being an artist by myself working trying to push myself I realize that this is something that we really needed to do and on the back end it could really help our families. what special about what we do is we help the artist become an actual business owner of self. We teach artists how to read their analytics. We teach artist how to collect their money their royalties how to read everything you need to be able to read just as if you were a major label. What I love most is that we can help provide the tools that I never had back when I started getting into music what I really love about our company also is that we’re not just a music company. We don’t consider ourselves a label. We are full on entertainment company which is everything under that umbrella. We have so many opportunities to create something more than what we’ve ever thought it could be we deal with gaming, fashion radio, film, and television along with a few other ventures. I absolutely love every part of what we do.

There is so much advice out there about all the different skills and qualities folks need to develop in order to succeed in today’s highly competitive environment and often it can feel overwhelming. So, if we had to break it down to just the three that matter most, which three skills or qualities would you focus on?

I wanna say the first area of knowledge would be knowing who to work with. It’s a lot of deceivers out here. It’s a lot of people who say that they want to see you do Great but really are just out here hating or wishing that you fail you know like just really want that front row seat to watch if you’re going to have a downfall.

I think a great quality to have is to be able to listen if you can’t get past what someone’s telling you and it is beneficial for you then you’ve already lost. You can be the dumbest person in the room full of geniuses, but by the end of the day you’re going to be the smartest person in the room if you can just sit back and listen and collect the knowledge you need to get to the next level.

I wanna say the best skill to have as an artist would be to know what you’re doing in that studio know what you want and know how to put it together by yourself if you need to.

Thanks so much for sharing all these insights with us today. Before we go, is there a book that’s played in important role in your development?

Two books that have played a major role in my development are The Four Agreements by Don Miguel Ruiz and The 48 Laws of Power by Robert Greene. While they approach life from very different angles—one focused on personal integrity and inner peace, the other on navigating external power dynamics—they’ve both shaped how I think, move, and interact with the world.

From The Four Agreements, one of the most impactful nuggets is: “Don’t take anything personally.” That simple idea shifted how I handle criticism, conflict, and even praise. It taught me to stop internalizing other people’s projections, which has been freeing and powerful for my peace of mind.

From The 48 Laws of Power, a major takeaway was “Plan all the way to the end.” That principle taught me to think more strategically, whether in business moves or personal decisions. It pushed me to be more intentional and see the long game, not just the next step.

Together, these books gave me a balance—emotional discipline and spiritual clarity from one, and calculated awareness and strategic thinking from the other.
