Most people don't create their own career, Jeff & Eric Rosenthal did.

They are not what you would expect when you say they have a close relationship with pretty much anyone who is a titan in the Hip Hop Industry. Instead of being artists themselves, they played to their strengths and in the early days of Youtube made Hip Hop Sketch Comedy that went viral and gave them a name in Hip Hop.

After several years of consistently making videos, they launched a career where they've done everything you can imagine. Interviewing 300 people in the Hip Hop industry including Rick Ross, Cardi B, Mac Miller and everyone in between, performing at Bonaroo, making mixtapes with the like of DJ Drama and 100 other feats in the space.

Most importantly, they were able to build a career where not only do they built what they wanted to while chasing not money... not power.... but respect.
