Killer Mike joins Shannon Sharpe at Club Shay Shay fresh off his Grammy wins to reflect on his journey from Atlanta’s Westside to becoming one of hip-hop’s most outspoken voices and community leaders. Killer Mike offers an apology to Steph and Ayesha Curry.

Killer Mike then opens up about his own marriage to Shay, his wife of 20 years. He recalls knowing she was “the one” after just two weeks, breaking up with another woman to be with her, and proposing with a handwritten note in Las Vegas at 3 a.m., and they kept the marriage private for nine years. Killer Mike says Shay has always been his encourager, business partner, and twin flame. Together they’ve raised a blended family, invested in property, opened businesses like their bed-and-breakfast and The SWAG Shop, and built a bond rooted in honesty and resilience.

He reflects on temptation, monogamy, and the lessons learned from missteps early in marriage, including the moment Shay confronted him for being too friendly at a strip club. Killer Mike explains why partnership is about tailoring marriage to what works for you and credits Shay with helping him become a better man, father, and businessman.

The conversation turns to money, business, and community. Killer Mike explains why he believes young couples should invest in homes and businesses over expensive weddings, and how he and Shay built wealth by combining his instinct for opportunities with her research-driven approach. He recalls buying Bankhead Seafood with T.I., developing housing projects, and the hard lessons of entrepreneurship — checking your ego, taking losses, and knowing when to cut ties. Killer Mike shares why cannabis should remain in the hands of local communities, not just corporations, and why he feels indebted to reinvest in Atlanta.

Killer Mike also opens up about today’s generation of Atlanta rap stars. He reflects on seeing Future rise from being cut out of videos to global superstardom, why he publicly defended Young Thug during his legal battles, and why the feud between Young Thug and YFN Lucci shows how reputations can uplift or damage a city. He explains why Travis Scott “can’t out-rap” him, but praises Scott’s success in building a powerful fan base.

Killer Mike details spending a quarter-million of his own money to make Michael, the album that won him three Grammys, proving to labels he was worth the gamble. He celebrates collaborations with Outkast, Organized Noize, Dave Chappelle, and T.I., while naming Ice Cube and Scarface as key influences. He recalls being detained at the Grammys, released in time, and receiving standing ovations everywhere he went.

Finally, Killer Mike opens up about politics, community, and legacy — from working with Bernie Sanders in Alabama to defending free speech, calling out America’s broken education system, and teaching his children the value of honesty and responsibility. Killer Mike delivers unforgettable stories, sharp insight, and a masterclass on love, loyalty, and leadership in hip-hop and beyond.
