In this bonus episode of Perspektives with Bank, Big Bank sits down with Houston rapper Cartel Bo for a raw and inspiring conversation about resilience, redemption, and building a new future after unimaginable adversity. Cartel Bo reflects on his upbringing in Houston's Lakewood and Myrtle Wood neighborhoods, opening up about childhood abuse, homelessness, time spent in the streets, and the experiences that ultimately led to incarceration. He shares how early momentum from records like "Hoover" attracted federal attention, the challenges of life on the run, and the harsh realities of serving time in federal prison before returning home determined to rewrite his story through music.

The conversation also explores Cartel Bo's rapid rise following his release, including signing with Warner Records, navigating creative differences with the label, and betting on himself when others questioned records that would later gain traction. He discusses balancing fatherhood and public scrutiny amid ongoing custody disputes, using viral moments to grow his platform, and creating opportunities for others by employing formerly incarcerated individuals through his trucking business. From independence and entrepreneurship to loyalty, relationships, and the drive behind his latest project Hit for a Bag 3, this episode delivers an honest look at perseverance, accountability, and turning life's hardest lessons into long-term success.
