Benny Pough
Benny decided to reach a generous hand far, fundraising for a girls’ training center in Addis Ababa, Ethiopia that has changed the lives of over 2,300 girls aged 9-18. The charity’s mission is to empower at-risk girls to reach their potential through education and employable skills. Its Institute of Art & Technology opened in October 2019 and provides accredited college classes for young women. The NextPlay x Benny Pough t-shirt allows you to show your support for Ethiopian women’s educational empowerment and economic development!
Benny Pough has spent years helming some of the biggest music distribution companies in the hip hop industry. When he walked away from Roc Nation in 2019 to start his own media company, he knew it was the fulfillment of a long-term journey to take control of his own creative and entrepreneurial journey. Watch Benny's episode of NextPlay, where he gives advice to young creatives and entrepreneurs looking to break into the music industry, and talks about believing in your own ability to level up your career.
