In this thought-provoking episode of The Indie Unplugged, host B. Vaughan sits down with Mogul Mal—a hip-hop artist, producer, podcaster, and community activist whose roots trace back to the historic Black Wall Street in Oklahoma. Now based in Atlanta, Mogul Mal reflects on how his upbringing and environment shaped both his music and mission. With powerful storytelling and a bold voice, he unpacks the influence of culture, history, and geography on his creative identity.

At the heart of the conversation is Mal’s latest project, Black in Amerikkka, a Juneteenth release that channels personal experience into poignant social commentary. The episode explores how he uses music not just as a form of expression, but as a vehicle for advocacy and change. From community empowerment to industry navigation, Mogul Mal offers sharp insight into the artist’s role in today’s social climate and the importance of mastering the business to amplify the message.
