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
Expect stories from my past, real-life rants, unfiltered advice, and straight-up humor—all with a touch of My signature style. Some topics might get deep, some might get wild, and some might get explicit (you have been warned). But one thing is for sure—I am keeping it 100% real every step of the way.

Welcome back to Let Me Pull Your Coat, the Unfiltered World of Master Silk. Today's episode is for the women. Every woman who loves hard. Every woman who is tired. Every woman who is building something with bruised hands, a sore heart, and a mind full of plans nobody sees but her. Before we dive in, here is your quick call to action. Make sure you subscribe on Apple, Spotify, and Amazon. Check out LetMePullYourcoat.com for the reviews page, the video page, and the your post page. If you want to send me a message, you already know the pipeline. Email, voicemail, or DM. I answer them personally. Now pull up a chair. This one is for the women fighting in silence. Shauna from Detroit asks, Master Silk, I've been with my man for five years. He tells me he loves me, but he disappears for two or three days at a time. I keep forgiving him because I don't want to start over. What should I do? Shauna, let me pull your coat. When a man disappears, it is never accidental. A man who loves you shows up. A man who chooses you stays present. You are holding on to the history, not the reality. And let me give you something from my own life. I once stayed too long with a woman who loved the version of me that didn't exist anymore. She loved the man I used to be because she never cared to learn the man I became. It took me years to realize that comfort can choke you. Do not let fear of starting over keep you chained to someone who is already gone. Layla in Cape Town. South Africa writes, My sister stole money from my business account. My mother wants me to forgive her because family is all we have. But she keeps doing things that hurt me. What do I do? Layla, I hear your pain. Family can break you in ways a stranger never could. Your sister is not struggling. She is stealing. Forgiveness does not mean you leave your door unlocked for the same thief. I've had family members lie on me, steal from me, and try to destroy everything I built. But here is the truth: blood makes you related. Loyalty makes you family. Protect your peace and protect your progress. Love her, but do not let her sabotage your future. Miyako in Tokyo, Japan writes, Silk, I've been working the streets for three years. I want to leave, but I am scared I won't survive without the money. How do women truly get out? Miyako, listen closely. I have helped women walk away from the blade, the clubs, and the backdoor life. The hardest part is not leaving the streets. The hardest part is believing you deserve something better than survival. You need structure, mentorship, and a plan. You need someone who won't judge you for what you had to do to stay alive. I walked plenty of women out of that world, bought them cars, put them in apartments, helped them get jobs, and helped them invest. Many of them are business owners today. You are not a lost cause. You are a woman standing at a turning point. And I am one message away. Anna in Santiago Chile asks, Master Silk, I am new to investing. I am scared of losing money. Where does a woman even start? Anna, the fact that you're asking means you're already ahead of most. Start small, start consistent. Start with what you can afford to lose, not what you hope to get rich from. I built my portfolio brick by brick. There were days I had more losses than gains. But the game changed when I stopped looking for overnight success and started thinking like a long-term owner. Women are some of the strongest investors when they trust their own decisions. You don't gamble, you strategize. The Oba Foundation, ETF, Blue Chip Stocks, and slow growth assets that expand with confidence. Bianca in Atlanta, Georgia says, I want to buy a small business. I found a hair studio for sale, but I don't know what to look for before signing. Bianca, this is where most people mess up. Before you buy anything, you need proof of profit, not hope, not promises, receipts. You want to see tax returns, bank statements, customer flow, lease terms, vendor contracts, and monthly expenses. You want to know why they are selling. A business with no reason for sale is a red flag hiding a bigger problem. When I bought my first bar, I didn't look at the liquor license terms. It cost me thousands before I fixed it. Do not repeat that mistake. Make the deal work for you, not against you. Here is this week's shout outs. Shout out to Amita in Toronto for sending in her first voicemail. Shout out to Jessica in Memphis rocking the Let Me Pull Your Coat Hoodie. Shout out to Dr. Hyrene in London who said my last episode got her through a rough holiday week. And shout out to every woman listening right now who woke up tired but showed up anyway. I see. I respect you. I love you. Here's your coat pull of the week. A strong woman does not need perfection. She needs truth, direction, and protection. Do not let the world convince you that you must suffer quietly. You are allowed to ask for help. You are allowed to rebuild your life. And you are allowed to outgrow everyone who expected you to stay broken. You are never alone, not as long as you know how to reach me. If today's message hit home, make sure you follow the podcast on Apple, Spotify, Amazon, YouTube, and wherever you get your podcast. Share this episode with a woman who needs a reminder that she is powerful, valuable, and deserving of peace. Visit LetMepullYourcoat.com for the blog, reviews, and upcoming merch drops. You already know the line. If you need me, reach out. Message, email, voicemail. I am one click away. Much love. Much respect. Until next week.
