The music star spoke about making a fortune out of learned skills rather than school-imbued literacy.

He argued that a person can acquire the exposure it takes to thrive by keeping abreast of emerging technology.

The rapper noted that more young people need to be taught that they can make a decent living through talent and acquired skills in such things as sports outside an institutionalised learning environment.

“A child should be taught that a living can be made via sports, skills, talents, and more.
