Dads, content creators, and legacy builders, assemble! This week on Father Time with De'Meco & Blair, we welcome the talented Brandon Ricketts! Brandon opens up about the juggling act of fatherhood and creative pursuits, emphasizing the importance of financial legacy for our children. From his top 5 fictional dads to his journey in photography, Brandon inspires with his artistic vision. We also dive deep into the viral song "BBL Drizzy" and its impact on different communities (including TikTok!), sparking a conversation about rap beefs and artistic expression (think Kendrick Lamar vs. Drake). But Father Time isn't all pop culture! We explore Brandon's heartfelt photo book "Circa 22" – a journey to 2022 through the lens of Brandon’s camera. This segues into a discussion on books (think "The Go Giver" & "Eleven Rings") and navigating racial identity as dads to biracial children. We delve into parenting styles, the importance of open communication, and the power of father figures. Reflecting on his own upbringing, Brandon emphasizes the value of role models and learning from others. De'Meco shares his journey of emotional responses maturing into logical decisions thanks to his father. Finally, we tackle the realities of online hate and the strength it takes to be a content creator. Brandon offers inspiring advice for dads and aspiring dads: keep chasing your passions!
