Deb Antney stopped by HOT 97 to talk with Nessa about the return of her show Deb’s House, airing Fridays at 9:30pm on WeTV. She opened up about why she created the show and how she’s focused on giving women real opportunities without the cattiness she sees in the industry. Deb explained why she looks at every aspect of an artist’s life—including family—before investing in them, and how she found this season’s talent through TikTok. She also spoke about what she learned from Whitney Houston, Betty Wright, and 50 Cent, and how those lessons shaped her as a leader.
Deb also reflected on her past work with Nicki Minaj, sharing stories about their early days together, what she saw in her from the start, and the loyalty that kept them moving forward including passing up a $5 million dollar deal to leave Nicki’s side on tour. She revealed how she handles offers to sell out, the biggest misconceptions about her, and what she looks for in talent today. Deb touched on proud career moments, her legacy, and why standing on integrity has cost her opportunities but also defined her. Finally, she shared what it’s like having Waka Flocka involved in season two and what drives her to keep creating platforms for women in music.
