Ho-Sang discusses other ventures besides his hopeful rap career
Releasing a rap album is not the only thing going on with Josh Ho-Sang.
Very cool launch by Josh Ho-Sang.
Sounds like he's making a comeback as well. Expect him to sign with the ECHL's Florida Everblades as they aim for their 3rd straight Kelly Cup championship.
It appears he is looking to make a hockey comeback, at least at the ECHL level.
He also has a new app coming out as well
Over the past year I took my time to create some thing that I'm very excited to share with the world. It's an app called PUP sports. The platform allows you to find pick up games, events & practice. It's a space for coaches to teach & all users can prosper earning cash rewards
The app is a cool concept and we all wish Ho-Sang tremendous luck with all three of his new ventures.
