In the latest episode of Million Dollar Worth of Game, Gillie and Wallo visit Orlando to sit down with rap’s rookie of the year, Bossman DLow. The duo surprised him with a gold plaque for his successful project “Mr. Beat the Road”. The conversation delves into DLow’s rapid rise in the rap scene, his new music, and his upcoming project, “Dlow Curry”, set to drop on December 13th.
Bossman DLow’s musical journey began during his time in jail, where he turned to music as a way to change his life. After investing roughly $100,000 into his career, DLow started to see returns, gradually raising his performance fees from $2,500 to higher amounts. His signing to a label recently has helped him further accelerate his career trajectory.
DLow mentioned that he is focused on creating impactful, short songs (typically 1-2 minutes long). By researching music trends and performance styles, he’s crafted music that resonates with women and encourages them to dance. He stands apart from drill music by emphasizing success and lifestyle rather than violence.
He reveals that his highly anticipated album “ELO Curry” will drop on December 13th, with around 20 tracks—16-17 of which will be new songs. He’s also planning a tour for January and February, aiming to collaborate with artists like The Weeknd and Future in the near future. Despite his success, DLow stays grounded and humble. He’s especially proud of buying his mother a house and sees his music career as a means to avoid legal trouble while creating opportunities.
The conversation also touches on the broader music industry, offering valuable advice for young artists and entrepreneurs: DLow criticizes modern artists for lacking energy in live performances, stressing the importance of engaging with the audience and giving 100% effort. He cites Travis Scott and NBA YoungBoy as examples of artists who truly connect with their fans.
He discusses the challenges of maintaining a successful team, the dangers of complacency, and the importance of continuously improving and contributing value to the team.

Darus shares his journey from business failures to securing over $24 million in funding within two years and now teaches others through workshops and boot camps. The discussion encourages young entrepreneurs to embrace hard work, take advantage of opportunities, and be willing to start from the bottom. Bringing value to your team is key to long-term success.
