Roy Perkins on Lil Keke, Legacy & Family Focus (Ep. 17)

🎙 In Episode 17 of BlaakTones TV, I sit down with Roy Perkins of Perkins Entertainment—best known for managing legendary Texas rapper Lil Keke of Screwed Up Click and later signed to Swishahouse.

We dive deep into Roy’s background, his early days in Houston, the rise of Texas hip-hop, and what it meant to guide a hometown icon like Lil Keke. Roy shares how family has always remained at the center of his journey—in business, music, and life.
