Episode #183
Big B Fines sits down with Louisville promoter, label owner, and community fixture Capone for a raw conversation about growing up across the city, the responsibility that comes with influence, and what it really takes to bounce back from a five-figure business loss. Capone breaks down his philosophy on legacy over money, why he won't let anyone else define who he is, and what's next for his label and his community work.
Capone is a Louisville-based event promoter, label owner (Big Star on the Table), and community advocate. He's promoted shows featuring artists like TK Kirk and Big Boogie, works with DJ Drama, and is developing film and youth mentorship projects alongside his music business.
