The former NBA first overall pick Kwame Brown, often known for being outspoken and his public rants about life, society and what’s wrong with culture and sports, joins The Pivot today for an in-depth conversation about who he truly is as a man and what he stands for.
Ryan, Channing and Fred sit down with Kwame to peel back the layers of this once basketball great and find out if it’s anger or frustration that fuel his words.
Selected as the first overall pick at age of 19 in 2001, Kwame talks about his experience as a child and rough upbringing to making it out to discover a life as not just a professional basketball player, but one of the best in the country at his young age.
Kwame talks about playing with Michael Jordan, the misconceptions of his rookie year and why he was labeled a problem player and later known as a bust. He shares his experience of playing with Kobe Bryant and being on the court for the legend’s historic 81 point performances and also how Kobe shaped him as a better player and man.
Sharing his truth regarding past issues and incidents between his ongoing battle with Stephen A Smith, the use of the word bust and former players speaking out on him- Kwame is not holding back and using his voice as an open book through his platform.
Working now to help today’s youth and provide an outlet and teach through his experiences, Kwame is focused on bringing reality to young men in the community and helping them evolve into better people with hope through opportunities.

This dude is more intelligent than people ever gave him credit for. Misunderstood from day one, it’s good to hear this man speak his truth.
-
Kwame was never even supposed to make it under his circumstances but still won at life. Respect.
-
Listening to Kwame has helped me to learn more about myself. I'm guilty of forming a judgment about a person based on what the media has said about them...instead of finding out about them for myself...Thanks to the Pivot for this insightful and meaningful interview...
-
This is one of the best interviews I have ever heard. They allowed Mr. Brown to talk without interruption and he in turn articulately expressed his truth; a truth in which many indigenous black Americans can relate.
-
‘It’s going to take more than a celebrity giving out a turkey to change our community.’ Thank you Kwame for sharing your wisdom, realness and heart.

I am a Black man, living in Shanghai, up at 5:50am, and was able to watch the ENTIRE podcast. As black males in the USA, and really most of the world, we are also seen as BUST. I can truly say, RC and all of the Pivot crew, you guys really on another level and please, keep letting men like Kwame keep it real and tell their stories in their own voice. You got fans on the other side of the planet. I am always ridin' with the Pivot podcast. Much respect and love from Shanghai, China.
-
I don’t even watch All the smoke no more I can’t take them corn balls serious no more the pivot is top tier! No judgement no snarky jokes just meaningful insightful interviews..major props y’all
-
Thank you, Kwame Brown. You've changed so many kids' lives. You're a HOFer of Life!
-
He doesn’t come off as angry to me. He comes off as a man who is being attacked, and he’s attacking back.💪🏽
-
Nothing but respect for Kwame. A strong and intelligent brother.
-
It's a shame it took so long for us to see how intelligent and entertaining Kwame is. I don't think I ever heard him speak during his playing days
-
We live in an evil world, people laughed at this man’s pain for years and he deserves so much more.. God bless ya Kwame❤
-
You can't play 13 years in the NBA and be a BUST. Respect to Kwame who did what he had to do to free his family!
-
This is easily top 5 episodes of the Pivot. Kwame Brown is easy to listen to and highly intelligent. Glad to hear him on this podcast. Ryan, Channing and Fred are doing a great job keep up the great work gentelmen .
-
I truly love this conversation, Kwame wasn't ducking or dodging any questions or comments.
-
Watching him grow from a teenager in the NBA to the man he is today...nothing but admiration and respect for KB, speaking the truth about the ignorant, phony, and deceitful people/entertainers in the world today! 💪🏾💯
-
So proud of kwame for standing up for himself. Lots of respect to this man.
-
What I love about Kwame Brown is how throughout the conversation is he keeps emphasizing on the children. A man who was at the top and making the next generation a priority. God bless man!!!🙌🏾🖤🙏🏾
-
This was awesome on sooooo many levels. Ryan, Fred, & Channing have their own styles of interviewing that still makes them a Great Team as a whole. Kwame is very intelligent and articulate. Love his realness and being genuine about the Black Community and helping Young Black Men as well as sharing why He attacks those who continuously & blatantly Disrespect Him.
-
I thoroughly enjoyed this interview. What I love the most is the authenticity from everyone not being afraid to say what you thought before meeting and after meeting KB.
