20 years upstate. One conversation to clear the air. The headlines never told the whole story. After nearly two decades behind bars, Tek Money finally breaks his silence in this raw and unfiltered call from prison — challenging everything you thought you knew about his case.
Serving 19 years for armed robbery, Tek addresses the rumor that’s haunted him since 2004: allegations of child abuse that made national headlines. “I ain’t never been convicted of that shit,” he says flatly. But the most powerful moment comes when his daughter, Tiannah, joins the line to speak her truth: “I don’t have a single burn mark. I never got hit. My parents weren’t like that.”
What starts as a prison interview becomes a moment of public vindication — not just for Tek, but for his legacy as a father. Beyond the accusations, Tek opens up about the deeper injustices he’s witnessed: serving more time for robbery than others did for murder, watching the system fail men like him. But through it all, he’s found purpose. He’s about to become a grandfather. He’s building a brand. And most of all, he’s focused on using his story to steer the next generation clear of the traps he fell into.
“Until you’re in the can with 25 to life, this shit ain’t it.” This episode isn’t about clout. It’s about clarity.
This is Tek Money — uncut, uncensored, and finally heard.
