One Lou joins Mile High Minute for a conversation about his journey from Rochester, New York, to Florida and eventually Colorado Springs. He talks about growing up in a crowded household with 14–15 family members under one roof, how those experiences shaped his mentality, and why pressure helped build the foundation for the man he is today. He also opens up about sports, faith, entrepreneurship, and the lessons he learned transitioning from working jobs as a teenager to launching his own construction company. Starting with almost nothing, One Lou explains how he built a business through hustle, persistence, and a willingness to learn on the fly. On the music side, he discusses developing his sound, the influence of Southern rap legends like Juvenile, Lil Wayne, and the Hot Boys, and how he balances music with business. He shares the meaning behind his name, "One Lou," the philosophy of his Ego Feeders brand, and his recent momentum with platforms like Dirty Glove Bastard and Street Nerds.
