River Donaghey grew up in a cult. Or at least that’s what some people called it. His parents called it a “personal-growth seminar group.” Its leader called it “one big happy family.” But there was a dark side to the world River grew up in. One he never heard about as a kid.

As rap mogul Sean "Diddy" Combs sits in a Brooklyn jail facing criminal charges of sex trafficking and racketeering and at least seven civil suits alleging sexual assault, we talk to investigative journalist Brian Joseph, who spent many years writing about the relationship between hip hop culture and sexual exploitation.
Brian recently released a book called Vegas Concierge: Sex Trafficking, Hip-Hop and Corruption in America.
In the book, he focuses on the so-called pimp and prostitute culture that's been glamorised and normalised in the media. Specifically, Brian reports on the case of Jamal Rashid, known professionally as Mally Mall, an American hip hop producer who worked with the likes of Snoop Dogg, Chris Brown and Wiz Khalifa, among many others.
