- The Authority On All Things R&B !
On this week's episode of The R&B Money Podcast, Tank and J Valentine welcome the multi-faceted singer and actor, Rotimi. As a young teenager, Rotimi earned his reputation by conquering the Apollo stage. It wasn't long before he joined the group NBH, receiving mentorship from none other than Jay-Z. However, Rotimi faced a tough choice: pursue an Ivy League education at Northwestern University or continue with the group.Ultimately, he opted for Northwestern, from which he graduated and soon landed acting roles alongside Kelsey Grammer, as well as his unforgettable portrayal of Dre on 50 Cent's hit show, Power. In fact, his performance as the villain was so convincing that even his friends on this podcast struggled to separate Rotimi from the nefarious Dre, a character entirely opposite to his true nature.From recording in Northwestern's studio, peddling mixtapes on set, and coining the phrase "it's the man, not the motel", Listen and enjoy this story of resilience, faith, and determination- Rotimi on The R&B Money Podcast

Absolutely 💯 agree R & B Money University 😊
Impatiently waiting for the J. Valentine episode!
You and all of us! I wonder if it’s kit painful to talk about? Tank told us his story. I grew up watching J Valentine as a younger with his siblings on Soul Train performing as The Newtrons. They can all sing but J has a crystal clear beautiful voice. I payed an old video of them singing My Heart Beats for you. My favorite because of the memories it brings back. J is too humble with his gift.
Im tryna see an episode with Joe as tha guest. dat would be dope
Been waiting since the beginning
I think we all are. I asked him on live before if he could do one he said he doesn’t want to he likes to keep his life a mystery and out in the open.
yeah...I was just thinking that lol
Tank, DON'T EVER take your "intro to the top 5" out of the show! It is funny everytime you do it.
Also, the chemistry between you & J is poetic.❤
😂
F I N A L L Y someone said Carl Thomas
😩😩❤️❤️❤️❤️
He’s sooo amazing!
He’s definitely in my Top 5!
Yessss I love Carl Tomas His Emotional Album is still in heavy rotation.
I said the same damn thing!!!
Shelia mentioned him too
The “Hold on I’m still singing” moment, REAL TEARS 😂😂😂
😂😂😂😂😂
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
Rotimi has been added as one of my fav guests on this podcast. 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾
He was awesome. So many layers to his personality
Whew, when he said he went to give Bob that 10K 🙌🏾...man, this was a great interview. I started following Rotimi when he came to Power, so it was good to hear his full journey.
Team Butterscotch!! Love this episode!! Love his spirit and Nigerian accent! Much Love & success to Rotimi!! 🇧🇧👑❤️
He is so talented! After seeing him on Power then finding out he does music, I was like booo, this is about to be weak, but he's freaking bomb at BOTH!!! And he fine AF. I mean...
Rotimi was on Power, not The Wire. Both great shows though…Wire’s better 😉
I've never seen the wire
Ebony meant Power
This was before she watched lol
He is good at both!
ROTIMI with the Naija accent😂😂. Q:What is the Nigerian wedding song?
R:Jesus Paid it All.
Tank:You mean like He paid for the wedding? LMAO😭😭
😆 🤣 😂 😹 😆 🤣
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
😂😂😂
J stop playing with us. When are you going to be a guest? You give us tidbits of your story here & there. We want more. #Respectfully
AGREED!
‼️
RIGHT!!!
Agreed!!! We want to know??
Agreed
“I AIN’T SAYING NO NAMES” went straight into Computer Love 😂😅
CARL THOMAS: SUMMER RAIN!!!! And Joe being mentioned more & more makes me so happy!!! 💚✨💚✨💚✨ Rotimi speaking on emotional intelligence in men and how that will change the tide… SPEAK! Much love to Jamie Foxx 🙌🏽🙏🏽💚
I remember when Tank did Hollywood Unlocked. I knew then he was perfect for podcasting and I’m glad he has the RnB podcast. Tank and J are talented as hell!!!😂🎶💪🏽
The Valentine laughing everytime Tank sings 'i aint saying no names'..... Is hilarious
J.Valentine is FINE 😍 Its hard for me to focus when watching these interviews 😩 Somebody tell him to wear a hoodie, face mask and a hat next episode 😂
Facts sis.
Ain't he ❤
Just pretty❤
lord the hoodie will just add even more to his sexy!!!!!!!!!!!!! and his smile and laugh is gorgeous. ❤
Listen cause damn and then when he laughs
Thanks to Tank, “I Ain’t Sayin No Names” lives rent free in my head 😂
I was such a huge fan of 'Boss' that I was hurt hurt when it abruptly left the air. I don't recall ever knowing why but I ended up buying the soundtrack just to try to console myself by having something to hold on to. Been lightly following 'Butterscotch' shenanigans and his alter egos journey since that show into 'Power'.
Thank you for allowing us to appreciate Rotimi/Butterscotch journey. These episodes always bring education, background, hahlariousness, and true bonding of artists who as human beings can share the same space.
Team No Egos!! Thank you Tank, JV, and Team R & B Money podcast!!
Tank and jay!!!Jay!!!! We need Joe Thomas on the show immediately!!!!!!
yo!!!
💯
By ALL MEANS!!! My Gawd
I approve this message
Yes Joe !!
I’m so grateful for this podcast. Every Saturday at work I look forward to the episode drop. Tank and J. Valentine, thank you for being awesome hosts, letting the artist tell their upbringing story which I love to hear because it’s insightful and inspiring, and for being so cool and genuinely funny. I cackle at work, lol. Y’all let y’all guests speak but always chime in right on time. I love Tank’s segment songs and how y’all really love on guests, I love J always teaching you something about the business, I just love it here. And ROTIMI!!! “Don’t you ever” and “make you say” are THE Jams. As someone with Haitian parents, I was like this music feels like Kompa!! Y’all are all so talented and may you all continue to be showered with blessings and love. Cheers to the good guys winning!!!!!!! ❤❤
Yesss! Mr. Buttascotch himself🇳🇬❤️🔥😂
He didnt sign with Jay Z but this is a testimony of how God will lead you to the right place, he goes to school and that set up the rest of his life even though he didnt do music in school. This is dope
Rotimi is such a great actor I almost didn’t watch this cause I’m still mad at him being Dre on Power 🤣🤣🤣 Talented singer and great episode.
This was a great show! Rotimi is such a humble,fine and funny man. Very likeable person and I wish him much success. The vibes between the 3 were great.
Y’all got my stomach hurting talking about “wanna Sprite”😂😂😂😂
It’s always worth the wait and the watch! Thanks for never disappointing and continuing to do the work and walking in your purpose! Rotini was amazing and his story is one that needed to be heard. He didn’t take shortcuts and that’s why he’s winning. @R&BMoneyPodcast you have been my favorite for a year now ❤ 💸💸 Blessings to the YoungLion, he showed out today!
Teasing with all the Shorts, I've been waiting for this! Looking forward to the interview. 🙏🏽❤️
Thank you gentleman for all you do. 🙏🏽🙏🏽
Rotimi 🙌🏽 yasssss Dre…Mr Butterscotch 🥰 we need 2023 video of Mr light butterscotch and Mr dark butterscotch (Rotimi & Godfrey) hilarious 😂😂
I'm a woman and can I just say this was the most logical basketball goat discussion EVER! Can't even call it an argument. I love you guys❤
And can I also say to Rotimi (4ever Dre), the humility looks too good on you! It makes your peeling back the various layers of your Blessings and Favor all the more special. ❤
It's the "I Ain't Sayin No Names" as Mr. Butterscotch aka "The Lion" for me....🤣🤣🤣
Another great story and another great episode fellas.👏🏾
I’m still pitching my show idea Tank and J.V. 🗣 R&B Money: Building a Voltron.
The ultimate R&B competition! Y’all do artist development, vocal production, writing, producing. I see it 🗣 and R&B NEEDS it! ❤❤❤ y’all 😅
“I had a computer chair for her as well” and “as I sit there as a broke nigga…” had me dying laughing 😂😂

Rotimi needs to go ahead and start working on the Roger Troutman inspired track "Computer Chair"🤣. I love this show!
This month Tank will surpass LL Cool J's lip licking while talking, to take the lead with 1,003,012 licks, salute the legend 💯
Omg 😂😂. That's saying alot. I didn't think anyone could surpass LL. But you're right!!! 😂😂
I remember when Rotimi was fresh out of college. He would play basketball at my homies apartment building. We were all actors but he was new to the industry. I needed help running my lines and he helped me. Such a nice young man and super talented. So happy to watch his journey and how he’s blossomed! Great interview!!!
❤ this
Love that wrist band story😄 Thanks to the R&B Money Podcast crew for another great episode.👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾
The top 5 intro/song takes me out EVERY time! Please always keep it 😂😂😂
24:15 As a Chicago native and Northwestern grad, I loved hearing him mention Chicago CD Claire Simon, professor Dawn Mora and NU School of Music and School of Speech (Communications).
the "I Ain't Sayin' No Names" in the accent the whole time: ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
This I ain’t saying no name segment took me out 😂😂😂🔥🔥
“That’s a cold bottom of the barrel line.” -JV

I’m literally addicted to this podcast… patiently waiting on tank to sing tooooopppp fivvvvvveeee your top 5😂

I could listen to these men converse all day long, absolutely LOVE this podcast! 🤗❤
I thoroughly enjoyed this interview. It was so much fun to Rotimi's story. The laughs were so contagious. "The I ain't gonna say no names" segment will be a classic. Loved it ❤😂
Beautiful to see 3 brother's with integrity, talent and tons of great information. 🤩 Listen up, real wisdom here!
THE BEST I ain't saying no names story thus far 🤣💀
I have watch the podcast since day one< I am so proud of you Tank and Valentine see how God bless you when you believe in yourself. I love Rotimi< especially his song I DO. one day I'm get married to that song. I hope by the 50th episode we will see Valentine does his story.
Awwww…. He didn’t forget about Bob!! That’s what’s up!!
Another great episode !!!!!!!!! great job guys can we please get a J. Valentine episode!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! can't wait for next Saturday!!!!!!!❤❤❤❤❤
Great impersonation of Omari Tank😂
I love each and every guest that comes on this podcast. The reason why is because we learn so much from the artist, but we also learn so much from Tank and J. Valentine when it comes to how much they contributed to the r&b culture!
Much Love and Respect to Tank and J Valentine. You guys bring out the best in all the guest! 🤎🤎
Rotimi❤❤Great voice and loved him on Power
Love to hear Carl Thomas getting his Props!!!!!!!
Funniest I ain’t saying no names EVER!!! I’m 😭😭😭😭 Great interview! He’s so talented!
Rotimi..so talented, first saw his talent on Boss, great show, should've done on longer. Glad he's doing great things 💯
I loved each second of this podcast.
Black men are everyyyyything
I look forward to watching you guys every week.😂 I love it.
J literally knows EVERYBODY ....but We definitely need a J Valentine episode and a Tank episode
There is a Tank episode
I'm obsessed with the real brotherly energy. Being a single mother of a Black Young Man, I've learned so much about their energy and why they tic the way they do.
R&B Money and The Pivot are my go-to for real talk 👄 💯 🙌🏿
WHERE DO I START?
1) Another great interview on an artist I coincidentally just found out about 3 weeks ago on the last episode of a Netflix documentary about the history and development of afrobeats & Locked "IN MY BED" to the playlist
2) loved the interaction with all three of you and his great storytelling and chronicling of his youth and journey in the entertainment business. Also had me cracking up along the way.
3) almost came to tears of joy when he blessed Bob with the $10,000. Great brother passing along the blessings and keeping his promises when someone did him a solid in a time of need.
* so many great interviews but this one ranks up near the top for me for familiarizing me more about Rotimi & entertainment that you guys delivered. Wishing continue to Blessings to Tank, Valentine and Rotimi.
The good guy won!
I think it’s time for the J Valentine interview. He has some stories and knowledge. J VALENTINE! J VALENTINE! Let’s get this R&B Money podcast interview done!!
Yall just don't change this up too much when yall get real big. Love this show!!! Yall are hilarious and real. J is probably going to need 2 shows with his story. We waiting J.

Well since y’all are having the argument about the goat. Y’all ever seen a goat hang by itself? I think they are goats in their era. It’s like who is the Goat of R&B, it’s too hard to name just one mane 💪🏿
This about to be good 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽
Tank should really do more method acting especially comedy, he is funny as hell😂😂😂😂
"So the source ain't Dr. J?" .....J. choose violence😂😂😂
Wow ...he was right in Evanston !!! I know he will always love the chi ❤
Tank said “hold on, I’m still singing.” Haha!

1:39:10 Tank like a lil bad kid with that keyboard 😂
This has got to be the best I Ain't Sayin' No Names 🤣🤣🤣

Another great episode for the books!!!! Rotimi on Power he played Dre to the fullest and I when I heard his song I Do.. I was like WOW he can sing too..😂.. I ain’t saying no names segment… when he went full Mr. Butterscotch.. I was in tears😂😂😂😂.. This was fun to watch 🔥🔥🔥
I really really really loved and enjoyed this episode ..this is def one for the books …”Another one !” Tank and Jay ,y’all got one here .
Every weekend I always look forward to R & B Money Podcast interviews. Rotimi , we need Computer Chair song 😂😂.

This episode was brilliant! From start to finish. Thanks @R&B💵 🙌🏾🔥
Yeah his no name is neck and neck with Kosine I’m cryingggg 😂😂😂 No Power no pun intended just a chair & candles.
Tank does such a great job of suping up the guests. And J is the perfect hype-man. Every guest is always cheesing from ear to ear after that big introduction!😊😊😊😊😊
Funny enough I watched Boss because of him… used to watch him do covers on CZcams all the time. Happy to see how far he’s come!!
As far as the basketball conversation goes, I'm with J. Valentine. The Warriors are the greatest!
Rotimi is a double threat, he is a talent and keeping it real. Great interview as always....Keep them coming..
