Super producer, sometimes rapper, husband, father, and businessman, Swizz Beatz wears lots of hats these days. The Bronx native recently stopped by "The Breakfast Club" to talk about his life as a Harvard Business student, and vacationing with his ex-wife Mashonda and current wife, Alicia Keys.
For those of you who don't know Swizz Beatz is currently a Harvard Business School student. Swizz recently told "The Breakfast Club" that he decided to go back to school in order to step his credentials game up and feel like he had enough knowledge to sit in some of the meetings that attends as a producer turned businessman. "I just felt like you got to keep graduating your brand," explains Swizz. A lot of people get complacent with their success and things that they have done before and I wasn't comfortable with that because I started transitioning from being a producer to being a business owner."
Swizz went on to explain that he didn't feel like he was getting the respect that he deserved as a businessman and felt the need to "sharpen his pencil a little bit". He is currently living in a single dorm on Harvard's campus, sleeping in a twin bed, and admits that he's a "small guy" in class due to the fact that some of his classmates are making billions of dollars per year.
Before leaving "The Breakfast Club" Swizz also spoke about vacation time he and Alicia Keys recently spent with his ex-wife Mashonda. According to Swizz, a lot of what people are saying about the trip is untrue and an attempt to make a positive situation into a negative one. Apparently, Mashonda was coincidentally vacationing in the same place as Swizz and Alicia and wanted to see the couples' son.
"I thought that was a very positive message, but even in that people still want the waters to be dark," explained Swizz. Swizz also added that because there are kids involved, everything that has happened in the past must stay in the past.
