Master Silk is Street-certified. Suit-verified. Wisdom you can feel.
Master Silk isn’t a myth—he’s the blueprint. Born and raised in Chicago, hardened by the streets, and refined by boardrooms, he’s a man who has seen it all and lived to pull the coat on every damn bit of it. A Marine Corps veteran, licensed attorney, former street entrepreneur, and now a multi-business investor, Silk is living proof that reinvention is real—but respect must be built, brick by brick.
More Than a Hustler—He’s a Legacy Builder
Back in the day, they called him Seldom Seen—not because he was hiding, but because real bosses move in silence. From bars and strip clubs to escort services and adult film ventures, Silk ran his game tight. But unlike most, he invested in his people. The women who worked for him didn’t just leave with cash—they left with cars, homes, stock, and options.
Today, he owns several successful companies and teaches others how to pivot from the streets to sustainability.
The Voice Behind the Mic
Master Silk is the creator and host of the podcast Let Me Pull Your Coat: The Unfiltered World of Master Silk, where he gives raw, unpolished, and unapologetic advice on life, love, business, betrayal, loyalty, and legacy. His voice is smooth, his delivery is slick, and his truth? It cuts straight to the bone.
Listeners around the world tune in every week not just for the game—but for the growth.
The Mission
Silk’s goal is simple: Elevate the people who were never supposed to make it. Whether he’s helping young men stay off the block, guiding women out of survival mode, or teaching veterans how to build wealth, he does it with style, swagger, and substance.
And when he speaks, even the silence leans in.
“I built respect before I ever built wealth.” – Master Silk

The Thank You Files: The World Called In — and Silk Answered
**I must first apologize for the sound quality of this particular podcast. I had to download a new editing software in order to upload each individual voicemail. While trying to enhance their sound and remove the background noises, it made each voicemail sound a little off and odd. It also raised the background music louder than I wanted. Unless I can find a better editing software to upload voicemails...this will be the 1st and the last one. LOL. Again I apologize in advance.**
We open the mics to the world and let real voices share how tough truths turned into action. Love, money, integrity, and identity collide in stories of leaving, rebuilding, and choosing patience over noise.
• global voicemails spanning Houston to Hong Kong
• leaving narcissists and controlling partners
• patient investing, debt payoff, and side hustles
• business boundaries, paperwork, and family betrayal
• fighting smart with documentation and agencies
• identity shifts from survival to purpose
• gratitude as calibration, integrity over applause
• community shout-outs, links, and how to share your story

Welcome to Let Me Pull Your Coat, the Unfiltered World of Master Silk. I must first apologize for the sound quality of this particular podcast. I had to download a new editing software in order to upload each individual voicemail. While trying to enhance their sound and remove the background noises, it made each voicemail sound a little off. Again, I apologize in advance. Now that that's out of the way, let's get it. Tonight's episode is different. The mics are open, but this time, the world's doing the talking. From Houston to Hong Kong, from Paris to Pretoria, real people, real stories, real results. They reached out after hearing something that changed their direction. So, sit back, pour a glass, light one if you've got it, because tonight, we're celebrating the voices that pulled their own coats.
SPEAKER_09:Before we roll the first voicemail, head over to letmepullyourcoat.com.

Subscribe on Apple, Spotify, Amazon Music, iHeartRadio, Pod Chaser, Pandora, and Sirius XM. And wherever you listen to podcasts, share this episode with two people who could use a reminder that change is possible when truth meets action. Now, let's hear from the family.
SPEAKER_08:I'm Kendra from Houston. I called to thank you, Master Soak in China, for helping me leave a man who was emotionally draining me. I used to think I couldn't survive without him, but your episode on narcissist made me realize that love doesn't mean losing yourself. I packed my things, moved out, and I've never been this peaceful in years. I'm going back to school now, and I'll finally sleep without checking his phone. Thank you for teaching me that peace is the real prize.
SPEAKER_10:Bonjour, I am Alev from Paris. I was listening to your podcast during my morning train commute. You talk about investment and respect like poetry. I had lost much money in quick trades, you know. But Sir, you said patience builds empires. I stopped chasing, started studying. Three months later, my small bakery now has investors. And I trade with discipline. Merci, my brother, and China, your confidence and private phone sessions gave my wife the courage to open her new salon.
SPEAKER_03:This is Nia from Johannesburg. How you say, I used to walk the streets. Every night, same corner, same lie, same regret. Then one night I heard China say, you are not what you sell, you are what you survive. I cried that night. I reached out to your website, and you actually wrote back. Today I'm working at a women's shelter, saving money and studying finance. I never thought I'd be free, but I am. Thank you for seeing me before I saw myself.
SPEAKER_01:This is Terrence from the South Side of Chicago. I call to thank you for your advice on dealing with family betrayal. My own cousin tried to ruin my business by lying to clients. Silk, when you said loyalty is proven when money's involved, that hit me. I cut the dead weight, handled my paperwork, and focused on growth. My business has doubled since then. You saved me from destroying myself trying to save ungrateful blood.
SPEAKER_11:Hello. This is Mari from Tokyo. My English not perfect, but I want to say thank you. My husband was how you say, controlling, always shouting. China, when you speak about finding voice and not fear, I listened. I left, I take my child, I go. We live quiet now. You remind me that silence can also be strength. You say it more than me, you said myself childhood.
SPEAKER_06:This is Maria from Sao Paulo. I just want to say, Silk, you the truth. I had racist neighbors throwing trash in my yard for months. You told a story about the fighting smart, not loud. I filed complaints, documented everything, and waited. They got evicted last month. I didn't need to lose my peace to prove a point. Respect from Brazil.
SPEAKER_07:Hi there, I'm Claire from London. I wanted to thank you for helping me with my daughter. She lied to social services and tried to have me arrested because she wanted to run off with some wanker. I was broken. But you said a parent's love doesn't require permission. I stopped begging her to come home and started living my life again. She came back three months later, pregnant, scared, but ready to make things right. Thank you both for keeping me from losing myself to guilt.
SPEAKER_05:This is Devon from the Bronx. I was deep in debt, lost my car, about to lose my apartment and my family. I heard your finance episode where you said, if you can budget the streets, you can budget a business. That live flipped a switch. I started a detailing side hustle. Four months later, I'm debt-free, with savings for the first time in years. He kept it real and everyone else told me to give up.
SPEAKER_04:Hello my people, this is Kojo Koning from Accra. I just want to thank you for the wisdom you give. I used to think stock investing was for white people. But Sue, you break it down so simple. I start small with local banks. Now I teach my friends how to grow wealth too. China, you said don't let fear dress like humility. I hear that every day. God bless both of you.
SPEAKER_02:What's up? This is Jasmine out of Los Angeles. I just wanted to call and thank both of y'all. I was tripping, trying to pay rent and take care of my son. China. You were raw about your story, about how you left that life and built something bigger. You said the streets don't owe you, but your future does. That stuck. A heat show up and still connected me with a mentor. Now I'm enrolled in real estate courses. My son sees a different version of me now. I'll never forget that.
SPEAKER_09:Here is this week's shout-outs. Big love to Brian A from Miami, Kiaomi from Singapore, Andre from Lisbon, and my forever wifey Rochelle in Kansas City, rocking the new tour jackets. Much respect to the new members who subscribe this week. Your support keeps the mic hot and the message moving.
SPEAKER_00:Here's your coat pull of the week. Gratitude isn't just about saying thank you, it's about recognizing the moments when truth hits you so hard it makes you rebuild yourself. The world is full of noise. You have people lying, fronting, pretending to clap for you while secretly hoping you fail. But when you walk in truth, the applause doesn't matter. When you move with integrity, you never have to beg for respect. So be thankful for the pain that made you grow, for the betrayal that showed you who's real, and for the peace that finally found you when you stopped chasing validation. That's what legacy really is.
