Troi Torain on Complex's Everyday Struggle
troi torain is a veteran media personality who both thrills and offends audiences through his no-holds-barred approach to radio, podcasting, and YouTube. He's made a name for himself by breaking news stories that have become viral, and his edgy approach to the breakfast club format has made him a hit on the social media scene. The former star of the infamous Star & Buc Wild morning show has now joined Complex's new daily hip hop talk show, Everyday Struggle.
He's a force to be reckoned with in the online world, and he's already proving his mettle on the new show. Troi has the perfect temperament for the role, and he has no problem putting his foot down and calling out his peers. This is exactly what he did when he called out fellow podcaster and rap blogger Kwame Brown.
In a heated exchange over Brown's response to a story that Torain broke, the host was able to highlight some of Kwame's inconsistencies and his refusal to admit to his own mistakes.
On the surface, the situation looked like it could have been a blown call, but Troi wasn't about to let Kwame get away with it. He was quick to remind his audience that he was the original source of the story, and he had interviewed the woman who made the allegations against Lenard “Charlamagne tha God” McKelvey.
The first season of Everyday Struggle launched into the hip-hop media landscape last year and became a go-to for fans looking for heated daily rap debates. When Joe Budden and DJ Akademiks' contract ended at the end of the year, Complex enlisted Radio personality Troi Torain to join the show for the second season.
During the second season of the show, Troi has brought a fresh take to the table and has become one of the most sought-after voices in the industry. His ability to hone in on controversial topics and provide listeners with an alternate perspective has kept his show at the top of the charts.
Torain also prides himself on being a straight shooter and letting his audience know that he isn't here to preach to them. He has great data on his female audience, and he treats them with respect. He doesn't have time for the dumb shit that so many other broadcasters allow to derail their roller coaster ride. He's on a mission to change the game, and it's working.
