Before Lil Yachty was selling out shows and walking Louis Vuitton runways, he was Miles — a kid from Atlanta watching his father hustle behind a camera.
In this episode, Shannon McCollum — photographer, storyteller, and father of Lil Yachty — opens up about how one weekend in L.A. changed his son’s life, the grind of documenting Atlanta’s golden era of hip-hop, and what fatherhood and legacy truly mean.
From shooting Biggie, Outkast, and Ludacris to raising one of today’s most creative voices, Shannon’s story is about more than fame — it’s about family, purpose, and the blueprint behind greatness.
