Your newest project is about to

Oh, you out here

- T, I don't know.
This birthday, it just feels
different.
Honestly, I don't even know how
to feel.
You know, your girl Kiaira
I'm sure she gon' make
this birthday about her.
Planning some event, marketing
PR.
You know her, the BS.
- I hope that changes 'cause
this is a big album for you.
- And it's kinda dope
that it falls on your birthday
weekend.
- Man, I guess I can't lie.
That is kinda lit.
- Shit!
It's gon' be a
crazy promo and tour season
if this how they
comin' just for the interview?
- Come on, they know what's up.
Think about it, T.
This my first album in six
years.
These new artists, man.
They don't know nothing
about anticipation.
I'm gonna have these hoes
finger for me.
- Facts.

- Yeah, you

But boss, I
gotta get you inside.
Let me get
your door.
- All right, Ray, let's do it,
bro.
- All right.
- Put this ugly ass jacket on.
I can't even pick up my own
clothes.
- How's the new album?
Will, Will, can
you make a comeback?
- Will.
- Will, Will, Will.
Oh my God, you're
amazing. What about Jordan?
- What you say?
- Step out.
- What you say?
- Step out, we gotta go.
We gotta go, we gotta go.
Let's move.
- Nah, what'd she say?
- Come on, don't worry about all
that.
Come on, come on. We gotta move.
Come on. We gotta move.
- Yo, I'm just trying to figure
out where she got that from.
Rodney, bro.
Bro, you're not gonna believe
this.
nigga, I just heard the
paparazzi ask about me
and Jordan.
- Man, stop.
Ain't nobody know about you or
Jordan.
Man, you're tripping.
- Bro, I'm telling you
I know what I heard.
And I heard the paparazzi say
it.
- What about you and Jordan?
- I heard it.
They forgot my PH water.
What's going on?
Bro, focus.
Will okay, my bad daddy.
Look, what's up man.
It's good to see you.
Look, you know, I'm here for
you and you know why I'm here.
I'm here to get you booked,
laid and paid baby man
just stay focused man.
Nobody know about you and Jordan
you good man.
- Cancel the interview, cancel
I ain't in the mood for
Kamilah and her antics.
You know she's still mad at me
for ghosting her way back in 05.
- You got caught with your pants
down.
Like literally.
- Shit, Got damn.
Your eggplant is everywhere,
bro.
This worse than Kevin Hart.
- So we're making jokes
about my career now.
- No man, just...
Let's just, just breathe daddy.
Just breathe.
- I can't even deny it.
- And that's just the business.
It's just a business man.
- Who put the camera in the
room.
- You're right.
- How did the camera get in
here?
- It's a mystery a foot
They were on some super
Ninja CIA spy type shit.
I wonder what kind of camera
that was.
- Rodney how you so nonchalant
about this?
Well, first of all, for
starters, it's not me.
- Wow.
- Secondly, all press is good
press
that you know.
- No, you must've forgot about
Thick.
His last album was bomb
and it's still flopped.
- Oh, you got a point
'bout that.
Look, you got five minutes to
get ready
for this Kamilah Trill
interview.
Look, daddy, you be good man.
I'll see you out there.
- Today on the show we have
a multi-platinum selling
heartthrob of our generation.
The amazing and now
controversial Will Clay.
- Thank you for having me
Kamilah.
It was always dope coming down
here,
checking you out at Epic.
How was your first ride?
- listen, you know
we have to put that into
perspective for the people.
You were my first major
interview as a journalist.
- Yeah I mean, what else could
I have been talking about?
- Well, let's cut to the chase.
You're back with the new album.
What's next, is slated to
be your comeback project.
But critics are all wondering
whether or not it will live
up to the success of
your previous releases.
- I mean I know it's a lot going
on in the media as of this
morning
but I can take it.
You know, when I think my fans
are going
to be thoroughly pleased
with what we got going
for them on the album.
- You sound very confident
about your new album.
- Well I mean, my paps always
told me,
even if you got to smile
through bad situations to
smile and get through them.
- Speaking of difficult
situations.
You were recently caught
on tape with the pop star,
Jordan Holmes.
How does your girlfriend
Kiaira K feel about that?
She can't be handling
that well.
- Kamilah, we're right here,
we're going there already!
- I can't hold back with my
first, right?
- Listen Kamilah.
- I love Kiaira always will.
And that's that?
So my new single "Ain't Just
Sex".
I'm actually performing it
for the first time tonight in
Philly.
So you actually should come
through.
Everybody's invited to
come and check it out.
- Will, are you deflecting?
- No.
- Just talking about what
matters.
- Right, what's up baby
- Let's welcome Kiaira K
publicist
to the stars to the show.
So you are saying this happens.
- No, what we're saying is we
wanna focus
on the album, not the
negativity.
- Okay, so when was the first
time
that you cheated on Kiaira?
Was this recently?
- Kamilah, can we focus
on the album, please.
- Why don't you just tell the
truth.
- Kamilah, it didn't happen.
Okay he did not cheat on me.
I know Will, that video
was old long before he
and I even got together.
- Will, why don't you just
admit that you made a mistake?
We all know you're not perfect.
Even though you pretend to be.
- I asked you not to discuss
this.
I have not cheated on Kiaira.
Now please can we keep
back to the interview
before I turn into a meme on
this show.
- And we'll be right back
after this commercial break
with the Kamilah Trill Show.
- Kamilah, what the
hell is wrong with you?
You set me up.
- Told you that nothing was
off the table, stop tryna people
please.
And just admit not just
to her and your fans, but to
yourself.
- Look Kamilah.
We're trying to give you
an opportunity to fix
this like a professional
or if you'd like for me
to step out of character
I can drag you across
a little gossip show.
- Oh, excuse me.
You're threatening me for
telling
the truth about Will's foolery.
Everyone knows that Will has
been cheating
on you for years Kiaira
The whole industry knows.
- Come on she's lying
Ki. She one of the ones
- Cheating with who?
- This is business and ratings
are going to be ratings.
Whether or not you wanna pretend
that the whole world didn't see
him
and Jordan on tape.
Or let's not R Kelly this
situation.
Just tell the truth Will.
- Listen Kamilah, what I do and
don't do
don't got shit to do with you.
Aight.
But please don't forget who I
am.
- You're delusional.
You're everybody's business.
You're a public figure.
And you screwed up royally.
- We are about to come from
commerical show, places
everybody.
- Either you talk or you leave
either way
I'm gonna be reporting
your news, Mr. Perfect.
- Okay cool.
Actually, Kamilah, I got a
story for you.
Kiss my ass.
- Ooh, word?
- And we're back from our
commercial break with Kiaira K.
Girl let's talk.
- Let's talk.
- Hey Dad.
- Son how're you doing?
- I heard about what's going on.
♪ Happy birthday to you
♪ Happy birthday to you
♪ Happy birthday William
Clay Gregory the Third ♪
♪ Happy birthday to you
We love you, Will.
We saw your interview on the
TV and I thought you said
that Kamilah girl was your
friend.
She seemed a little rude if you
asked me.
- Mom she was just doing he job.
I mean honestly.
Everybody wanted her to go
hard and then that on me.
So I think I came out pretty
good.
- Anyway it's just uncomfortable
for us to see you go under so
much pressure on national TV.
- Speaking of pressure Will.
How's Kiaira
you know, dealing with all this.
- You knew her handled the
business
and cleaning up the mess.
- Alright.
Well, tell her, I asked for, I
got to go check on the mac and
cheese.
- Hey Will, you still here?
- I'm still here Pops.
- Look here now I know you're
dealing
with something that I
can't even understand.
Fame and life in the limelight.
You got everyone up in your
business.
That could be overwhelming now
now just remember your
foundation
and put your trust in God.
Thank you dad.
I needed to hear that right
about now.
- You always got a home here,
all right?
If you need to come back here
and you need a break and leave
that popstar bunnies alone.
- Okay dad.
- And don't forget.
Think about what I said.
- Mommy loves you Will.
- I love y'all too.
- I know y'all done heard what
happened
what happened on Kamilah Trill
today?
Will Clay, ya boy dropped the
ball
on live television and Kamila
pressed him
about him cheating on his
fiance with Jordan Holmes.
- Embarrassing.
- Let tell you, we got all the
tea today.
- Totally, totally
unacceptable and embarrassing.
But what do you expect
from a guy like Will Clay?
- You just don't like him.
- No, it's not that I don't like
him.
It's just that
like I said, I judge
people by their actions.
- Yes.
- Okay, his action is showing
time
and time again that he's a piece
of shit.
That's it.
He's a piece of shit
and I'm not surprised.
Okay, you're surprised?
- I can give him a little bit
more credit
than you're giving him.
- I'm not surprised at all.
What I am surprised is that
Kiaira is coming to his defense.
Like why is she coming to his
defense
when he cheated on her?
That's crazy to me.
- So black women, we do
have to stop doing this.
We have to stop putting
ourselves
as the sacrifice in front of
black men.
She should have just let him
and left his ass out there
and let him do whatever he
needed to do and catch that L.
- Apparently now I'm no moral
authority.
Okay, but I can call out.
Definitely, I can call out low
character.
When I see it now,
Kiaira needs to leave him
instead of coming to his
defense.
- Black men, don't cheat,
that's what they say.
Unfortunately this one did
'cause they got the footage to
prove it,
baby I done seen that thang.
And it's crazy.
But to be honest, this is
probably a publicity stunt.
That Kiaira has set up in order
to help promote his new album.
Cause that's what we're
all talking about him now.
- No, no, no.
It's not a publicity stunt.
Okay, alright.
What do you expect from
Will the heartthrob
- I can give him more
credit than you give him.
- No, trust me.
He's not gonna be faithful
to anyone but himself.
It's just, it is what it is.
See things for what they
are it is what it is.
- Look, I couldn't really
tell if it was him.
It was kind of like that, you
know?
- It was him.
- Okay, I guess look,
we got the tea everyday,
all day on TKA.
See you guys next time.
I'm your girl Mona.
- I'm your boy, Justin.
- Justin don't like Will Clay,
but we out here love you guys,
peace.
- Check it out.
- What?
- What y'all think.
- Think about what, why
are we here?
What is this?
- This is my inspiration
for my next video.
For "Ain't Just Sex" came
down here.
I was looking
at it and I'm like, this is
the direction I'm trying to go.
- Okay first of all,
we need to be focusing
on getting in front
of this Kamilah Trill interview
and this Jordan Holmes video.
- This is my way of
getting in front of it.
With the music.
I'm telling you
It's doper than it looks.
Rod, What you think?
I don't know man. I kind of
like the smoke,
baby oil...girls.
- nigga nigga.
I just got in trouble for that.
No, come on a slap in
the face to the fans.
If I did something like that,
promoting sex.
I'm thinking now,
imagine it lit
up electric. I'm telling you.

We need to focus on the real
Okay, you can hump all the
lil groupies that you want.
That's our deal.
That's fine.
But now it's in the public eye
and you embarrass the hell
out of me on national TV.
Ki, I didn't know anyone was
going to record it. Come on.
Oh, so now it's the person
that taped its problem.
You were sloppy.
And Jordan of all people

to damage control of this?
- I don't know.
- Take a picture.
Show these people that
we're still together.
Aye, good thinking.

show.
Maybe it'll take care of some of
the backlash from today's
debacle
In the meantime, I called you
a car. Go home, wash the smug
of your face and dress like
you're the life of the party.
I don't wanna do all that
You don't have a choice right
now
this album has to pop.
You've destroyed all of my
footwork for you to bust a nut.
Okay you're going to shake hands
and you're gonna kiss
as much ass you have to.
- So now I'm just a monkey in a
cage.
- You gotta do what you gotta do
you are the one that messed up.
- Wow.
- Let's go.
Hey, you!
Happy birthday Will Clay
Gregory or is it Mr. Super star.
- Look I saw your your
dumb self on Kamilah Trill
Why you ain't come back
after the commercial break.
Look I get it. But it
was already out there.
You should have just got ahead
of it.
Instead of acting like
we all see bunny hopping
with your Jordan.
Girl, you know that wasn't me
Who I look like?
Stop reaching for everyone's
approval
If I can love you all these
years.
So can everyone else.
- You're really funny.
- Now can you

your thing everywhere.
- I mean. Clearly not
everywhere.
- Please you wish.
- Maybe.
- Anyway, bye Will.
- Bye Shardae.
Thank you for calling me.
Hey, ya'll.
Yo! What's up
- Look I just got off the phone
with Will not too long ago.
And I was thinking that we

You know the paparazzi
probably still hounding him
Sounds good. Let's bounce.
Uh, whatever we do I'm going
to need one of y'all to
spot me because my
pockets on lean right now.
Child support...

for the industry's most smug and
elite.
It's my birthday.
Do I even know any of these
people?
Or are they your little money
team?
- Cut it out, Will
Okay, doing you a favor.
I filled this room
with the industry's
deepest pockets for you
What you need to do is be
grateful and play your role.
Now, turn it on
- And stop acting like a little
boy.
I know there's a man in there
somewhere.
Let's go!
Kamal - What's going on, man?
- You hear that music?
- Hi, how can I help you?
What's going on?
Uh, check the friend list
Yo, check it for Mally Mal.
Let me see that.
Yo, who is you?
No!
Tao?
No!
Shardae?
No!
- Excuse me.
There must be some mistake.
- There's no mistake.
Your name is not on the list,
thank you.
I'm sure if you just take a look
here

Will.
- Your name is not on the list.
- Excuse me?
- Tao I got this.
Sir, my friend he tried to be
nice to you
But I'm not the one
So if you just please step
aside and make a way for us
We won't make a scene for
you and your bougie guest.
Ok
- You can make a scene if you
want to
but you're only going to
be embarrassing yourselves.
Now please take your
ratchet friends to the side.
And shuffle back to the
hood where you came from
- Listen Will, this next
album is already sounding
like another classic and it's
projected to be his best
selling project thus far due

African ass out the way.

A full line of clothes.
I mean...
- Kiaiara I actully need

for just two seconds
- Hey baby, where'd you go?
My new friends,
Matt and Tara wanted to meet

- Nice to meet you brother.
The way you came up out of the
struggle.
My wife and I are big fans of

Nevermind look if you guys don't

- Bottoms up.
- Will, what the hell are you

- Kiaira why weren't my friends
invited.
- My assistant forgot to
send their invitations.
Bullshit
Listen, they'll get over it.
This isn't a party for them
anyway.
- Oh that's how you feel
about my best friends?
- Look, it is what it is.
Okay their cute little common
folk.
But we're different
breed, different class.
And we need to act like it.
- That's bullshit.
- Excuse me!
- Y'all think Ki was being
shady?
- I know it look a certain way
But I don't think she was
being shady on purpose.
- Speak of the devil.
- Hey Ki, how you doing?
Aw man
- So glad you all could
make it to the party.
- What we would miss it for the
world,
but only if we had an invite.
- Oh, I'm so sorry, I heard
about that.
I know you guys are like his
family.
- No, we are family unlike
you a gold digging troll.
- That escalated quickly.
- I don't like what you're
insinuating.
- I'm not insinuating I'm
stating
just stop being fake all the
time
and just admit you don't
bang with us you claim.
- You want to keep it real.
I'm here for Will and Will only.
And I have no interest in
you three stooges around me.
It breeds jealousy when the
people around you are succeeding
and you're stuck at your
little nine to five.
- Shardae, please do me a favor
and snatch this jawn weave out.
- I'm going to let her
live off Will's hard work
and success another year.
She'll be riding more coattails
before the night's end.
- That's what she's good at.
- Hey, Will, Will come on man.
- Guess what I just had
an Epic conversation
with Chuck Stearman,
Chuck Stearman?
- Y'all know the producer?
Guess what he wants me to be
the lead in his next film.
Who?
Will Clay!
I can't believe it y'all and
Rodney, I gave him your number.
So make sure you keep your head
on the swivel for this phone
call.
You already know baby
Yo! Yo! Yo!
- This is the perfect time for
shot.
Let's go boy!
Yeah
I don't think that's a good
idea.

You know what?
Chill Mal, come on dog.
- For here's to another great
year
of success for my best friend
Will.
May you continue to level up.
- Together!

No matter if you halfway around
the world.

Stop playing with me.
Bye Shardae.
- Will, Kiaira, we had
such an amazing time.
You know Matt and I
don't get out too often
But it was a pleasure
Hanging out with you
and your family tonight.
- Yeah We have to hang out with
Kiaira and Will more often.
They will keep me young.
Oouuh!
- It looks like we got the
sparks flying.
Sara if I was you I get him
home before that whiskey
wear off. If you know what I
mean.
Get it in y'all.
Come on Matthew.
Our driver's waiting outside.
Look, look forward to
hearing from us soon, okay.
- Ouch.
- Really?
There you are babe, I was
looking for you.
Tonight was amazing, right?
Oh my God I'm so excited.
So now we just need to focus
on promoting the album, the
tour,
oh, and dodging the press.
We don't need any more mess.
I booked some studio times
tomorrow
be a little bit late, but
just stick to the plan
with the producers okay?
- Now for real, why you
ain't invite my friends.
- Baby, I'm so sorry.
It won't happen again.
- You see this stuff, but you'd
be lying.
- I'm not lying.
- Yeah, you love to lie.
- No I don't.
But you don't mind if I lie
and it benefits you, come here.
- Stop it, just saying
I'm not in the mood.
- I didn't ask if you were in
the mood.
♪ so early in the
morning, or the evening,
♪ Or late afternoon
- That's your fire, right?
- Hell yeah.
But who laid down in reference?
That is Staci G.
We were working on it for a
while now.
You want me to go get her out of
studio B?
- Yo is she signed,
'cause if she ain't signed
I think I'm gonna need to
get her for my new label.
- Yo, I've been telling her
that you would love her style.
She reminds me of you. I'ma go
get her.
- Alright.
- Will baby girl, Staci G.
Staci it's the homie Will Clay.
Staci I just played him the
track
that you referenced for him.
Yo I'm telling you she's
the next Lauryn Hill.
- Yo, this is crazy.
It is so amazing to meet you.
Like I grew up listening to you.
So for you to be standing here
is insane.
You're like one of my greatest
inspiration
- But first of all, grew up come
on.
Don't make me feel so old.
How old are you anyway?
- 18.
- Okay maybe I am old.
Oh, what was I doing when I was
18?
I think I was just signing my
first deal.
- Yo, Stacy plays the hell
out of the guitar too.
And that's all I got plugged to
her.
I wanted a guitarist and
I was looking for a lady
so everybody recommended Staci.
- Okay so you play the
guitar and you sing.
Question?
You're trying to be a musician
or you're trying to be an
artist?
- An artist for sure.
- Okay, okay.
You got any more original
music I can hear.
- Well I've been producing with
my iPad since I was like 15
and Mell has been working
me for months now.
- Staci, I know you just didn't
tell me
you've been producing on the
iPad.
Bro man times have truly
changed.
For real.
I got an idea though.
Staci G how would you feel
about opening up for Will Clay?
On my new world tour, and
possibly sign into my new label?
- What, hell yeah I'm with all
of that.
- Okay, that's what I like to
hear
but I'm gonna tell you this
though.
I ain't going to go easy on you.
Cause that just ain't the Will
Clay way.
- You better not go easy.
Cause it wasn't nobody easy on
you.
You already know.
- Oh, look, I'm here for all of
it.
But I was wondering
would you be willing to sing
the song that I referenced
for Rell as a duet
instead of by yourself?
- Staci G and Will Clay.
Yo, I think I'm here for that.
Let's go cut it now.
You got to show me all those
riffs and runs you was doing.

- Not a priority, short
term, instant cash.
I've told you that.
- Okay alright.
- Hey, yo, yo!
Yo y'all killed it, y'all killed
it.
Yessir,
You know her. Ki, look I
wanted you to meet her.
- Who is this and what is she

Yo, this is my home girl, Staci.
Lemme play you something.
♪ I don't need steak and eggs,

Where y'all fin this one at?
Wouldn't you like to know.
Ki, I wanna sign her.
- Why it's one track don't
be so impulsive William?
You just heard the song.
You thought it was good.
I mean, come on.
She's exactly what we looking
for.
- Hi, I can't believe I'm in the
same room with Will Clay
and Kiaira K.
- And we can't believe
we're in the same room
as Staci G G, G.
- Stop stop don't embarrass me.
- Ki I told you, look, we got to
sign her.
- I mean, that wasn't bad.
I mean she does have some raw
talent here.
- With a little direction
you could be somebody make
sure to get information, okay?
- I got you.
You'll get it before you leave.
Come on, let's get something to
eat.
Talk to me baby, come
on.
You can come too!
She was good baby.
Check this out. I got
a little gift for you.
Ooouu is it the new Tesla?
- Hey guys.
What's up?
To all my home bodies out there.
Thank you for holding me
down and having my back.
Cause these last couple
of weeks have been crazy.
People have been calling out my
name.
Paparazzi is harassing me
and my family everywhere I go
about
rumors
and lies.
Look I just want to set the
record straight.
Okay Will and I are just
friends.
The footage isn't recent,
and he's actually like...
He's like a mentor
and there hasn't been anything
between us
I respect him and Kiaira's
relationship
and I expect y'all to do the
same.
Okay on another note,
my single's coming out.
- What?
Babe.
- You're welcome.
- Oh, how'd you do that?
- I got my sources.
- That's talking about my baby
Kiaira K
Ooh, ooh ooh come here Kiaira K
Ooh, Ooh!
Hey come on, let's go.
K.
You're a fool
- Goodnight.
Sorry we're closed.
- Perfect timing.
- What you're doing here?
I'm vindicated, baby.
- I see things must be going
good
if you're doing a surprise pop
ups
on your friends.
- Come on, Shardae I said I'm
sorry.
- So you just came to kick it
or apologize for the other day.
- I actually came to talk to
you.
I need a little bit of
advice or something.
And I know he wanted a
few people in my life.
We're actually gonna keep
it one hundred with me.
All right, wassup?
You know how rough
stuff been going lately.
And I just been thinking
about getting older
as an artist and what I'm
going to do after this.
And I know I'm not too old yet
but I've been doing this for a
long time
and it's really starting
to take a toll on me.
- You in your feelings again,
talking
about taking a break from your
music.
Is that what you really want to
do?
- Not all the way, look check it
out.
So I met this artist's name,
Staci G,
And she is cold, she's lit
When I tell you she just got the
IT factor
and it dawned on me.
Maybe I could develop an artist.
I'm more than just my voice.
- So what y'all going to be
like a Rick James and Teena
Marie.
You got jokes. See girl
you always playing too much.
- No I'm going sign her.
I'm a develop her, write with
her,
create a classic album and bow
out as Will
artist and welcome as Will the
executive.
- It's ambitious I like it.
You know I'll support your
stuff.
Oh, thank you!
- So is Kiaira cool with this?
- What'd you think about last
night?
- What sex?
- No Stacey G at the studio.
- Why are we talking about this
now?
I'm ready to go upstairs for
round two.
- Because it's just been
on my mind heavy and I'm
want to make sure we lock her
down before we lose her.
- Look, she was good and all
well, but we need to focus
on you and getting you locked
into this long-term deal.
That's money on the table now.
- I just think about it.
Staci could be the key to
getting our record label
off the ground and I could
retire and maybe just transition
into working on her and me
and you guess what we can do?
You can start a family.
You talking about retiring and
becoming
a produ... Chile! Please.
you need to worry about singing.
And let me and Rodney
worry about your career.
All right.
Wow!
I will see you later, family,
man.
- Wow goodnight to you too.
- So Kiaira, isn't cool with it.
- Not the way she was talking.
- But would you do it without
her?
- I don't know, I've been with
Kiaira
and Rod for so long.
It's like, I couldn't
even imagine my life,
or my career without them.
- Well you need to do what's
best for you.
And sometimes Rodney and Kiaira
don't have your best interests
in mind.
- Why are you so dope Shardae?
You've been literally one of
the most consistent people
in my life.
- All your life, and best
friends
tell each other the truth.
And I don't want you to waking
up one day
and just realizing that your
purpose was right in front
of you.
You are more than a
beautiful man that can sing.
- So you think I'm beautiful.
- Always ruining a tender
moment with ya pretty ass.
- Hey baby.
- Rodney, how you doing man?
Thank you so much.
Thank you man.
I appreciate it.
Oh the good stuff, huh?
- Hey Steve.
You mind if I get another round
of that?
Oh yeah.
Feel free to indulge.
- Yeah damn right.
- Especially you Will.
I'm gonna take this whole bottle
home.
- So we want to commend you all.
Will, Rodney, and Kiaira for all
of your hard work and
achievements
and your new world tour
that we believe will be your
best yet.
- Thank you so much.
It's shaping up to be pretty
lit.
We all know by now that
initially we had some doubts
onto whether or not we
could get a good return
from an RnB album that seemed to
speak
to only a certain demographic.
But ultimately, ultimately, you
surpassed those expectations
with the creation of this new
album.
- Your support means
everything to us Steve,
thank you so much.
- So how about these contracts
cause that's why we're here
tonight right?
That is why we're here, right?
- See, that's what I like about
you.
You put your business first
- You know.
- So let me introduce
you to Braxton McCall.
He is our bright new
executive that was brought
over from the merger with BCMA.
- Think he was at the
birthday party right?
- Yeah, he was.
So this is more like
your second introduction.
- I recognize you man.
Good to see you.
- Good to see you.
Thank you, Steve.
Will, my sole purpose is to
strengthen our partnership
with the deal that benefits us
all
and takes your career to the
next level.
So I'll be teaming up
with Kiaira and Rodney behind
the scenes
to ensure that dream.
I think you'll be happy
with our very lucrative offer
that far exceeds any offer
that any R&B artists would
receive
in today's climate.
This agreement would take
effect,
once you first step
on stage for your new
world tour this summer.
- We want you to know how
much you're valued Will.
- Damn, I mean, well,
yes, this is good stuff.
- Will.
- I mean, it's a nice
number, but it's a 360.
I don't do those.
- Look, I totally understand.
Look, 360's get a bad rep
but I still think you can
see the benefits of this.
- Will everyone in this room
knows how amazing you are
and all of the great
talents that you possess.
Braxton and Steve, wanna make
you the face
of their new merger and
a major brand worldwide.
Our first priority is going
to be getting you moved
from the East coast to LA,
where BMCA is finest agents are
located
and getting you into the new
artist development program.
- Wait what?
I just moved back.
Y'all want me to go back
and do what? I know y'all
don't think Will Clay going
through anybody's artist
development program and
actually did Kiaira tell y'all
that I'm actually not even sure
that I want to be an artist
anymore.
I kind of want to get on a
backend and do some producing.
- Will, I'm confused I just...
- Do you mind if we just had
a moment with Will outside?
- Kiki look I know what I want.
I know what I want.
Okay, we'll be back.
- I don't know why y'all had
to pull me out to meeting.
Being all dramatic.
- Somebody want to tell me
what the hell was that in there?
- That was Mr. Gregory over here
wants
to leave all this money on the
table.
So you can start his new record
label
with his muse for the day, Staci
G.
- Hold on.
Wait, Nobody thought it
was important to tell me
that before we walked in there?
- Think about it y'all we don't
need them.
The three of us, we know the
game
but we also know music.
Add that with Staci well we got
magic.
- Will, I get it, but it's a
lot of commas in there, man.
- A lot of commas.
- Can we do both?
- Bro that's chump change
compared to our work
Think about it.
If we get ownership
we're not living off the
advances that the label given
us.
It's a big picture move here,
bro.
Come on.
You know what?
It's my career.
Y'all gotta do what I tell
y'all to do because I pay y'all.
I write the checks.
So this is what I want.
This is what I'm going to go
in there and make it happen.
That's all I'm saying.
- Relax, you're getting a
little, worked up, calm down.
Let's talk about that.
- All right, listen Ki
you go in there, make something
up.
- Make something up?
You guys?
Oh my God.
- You you go home, and go get
some rest.
And we'll reconvene tomorrow.
We'll figure this out, okay?
- Rodney, Kiaira, this
is deeper than what know.
I made a promise to my
grandfather many years ago
at his grave that I would never
settle.
And then I would always remember
that all things are possible
through Christ and y'all
gotta make it happen.
- Okay, okay, I'll handle it
and I'll make sure we take care
of what you need first and
foremost, okay?
- Fix this.
- But listen, this is
what I find interesting.
I always took Will Clay to be
selfish.
Like he's like a pretty boy.
- Cause he is.
He definitely is.
But, it looked like he wanted
to do something a little bit
more than sing apparently.
Ya know my sources tells me
that he done turn down the
multi-million dollar deal
in pursuit of doing his
own thing independently.
- Okay, I see you, Will Clay.
I'm not gonna turn down
a big deal like that,
but it's okay to each's own.
But listen, maybe he
wants to change directions
and not be so egocentric.
You know, maybe he might
be on his Nipsey Hussle,
you know, inspire everybody for
change.
You know, he might be different
now.
- I doubt it.
You asked me that was a fool ass
move.
- Dang, that's how he doing it.
TKA all day.
You know how we do bring you
the tea every day, all day,
have a good night guys.
- Hey, I'm at my mom's house and
You won't believe what I found.
All these old behind CDs
and mixetapes from a billion
years ago.
- You got my favorite one in
there.
- You mean the one you made
thinking it..
- You know it. That was my
old G. The goat, the greatest,
The legend, Usher Raymond
- Ew fan boy. I remember
you used to pop lock
and dance under the fire
hydrant, pretending it was rain.
Oh, please don't act like I
was the only one acting crazy.
I can't even count how many
times
I remember butchering that boy
is mine
and still at the, all these
years.
You still ain't picked aside.
- And we are not having
this conversation tonight
and don't be mad
because your dad banned
Lil Kim and Foxy Brown.
Once he heard them lyrics.
- There's a whole lesson on
temptation.
Well, thank God.
He never caught you doing
your LL impersonation.
- Oh, I could still do it.
- Bye. I am not impressed.
Anyway do you remember the
first one that we made?
- Of course I do.
Will and Shardae volume one.
- I'm looking at it right now.
And guess what I just picked up,
Brandy.
- Seriously, "always on
my mind", that was always
in heavy rotation.
- but how'd you turn a joyful
song into a mournful song.
That's what I'm trying to figure
out.
- You know that was around
the time grandpa died.
So just was always listening
to that one all the time.
Everybody else drifted in
they own little weird world.
You was the only one who leaned
in.
- That's the best friends do.
- True.
- All right that's enough
reminiscing
I got to go Will.
- All right bye.
- Bye.
- All right now don't forget.
Braxton has the camera
crew following us now okay?
- Yeah yeah blah-blah-blah
what's up everybody.
It's your boy the big dog
Rodney Rod baby how are you
doing my ladies out there.
We out on the road first tour

Get ready to get kicked
off and we gonna show some
behind the scenes real quick.
Kiaira, what's up baby

- Hi.
- How are you doing?
- Rodney you have something
to do like your job?
- But mommy that's boring.
Ladies and gentlemen you already
know
the one and the only newest
member
of the team is Staci G.
She only goes by one letter in
her name
cause she thinks she's an icon.
I don't know where she get that
from
- Leave me alone.
- Okay but baby sing
something for them real quick.
- Leave me alone,
- And we gonna save
that for the tour y'all
Look, we got so much going on.
This man needs no
introduction because legends
let all their work do the
talking.
- Or their loud ass managers.
Boy, I'm on the phone.
- But that hurt bro, but ladies
and gentlemen it's Will Clay.
Willy Will baby, what's up man!

I see you in here rehearsing
with your little blue jacket on.
Have you ever done a real
dress rehearsal before?
- Yeah, but never really with
all these cameras around.
- That's a Kiaira thing
she got this thing.
Will, everything needs to be
documented.
Document this Kiaira what's up?
You like this, Kiaira, this is
of you.
No but I'm so proud of
you though seriously.
I know you're about to rock this
tour.
- Thank you so much.
You know, I was so nervous,
but you've been such
a great coach.
Like for real, my G pretty
good for a old head.
- Oh, oh now I'm old.
This is Stacy.
I knew it was something special
in you.
The moment I saw you and
now the whole world about
to see you starting
this tour off in Philly.
So you know what that means.
You bout to be singing
at one of the cities where
the dopest music came out of.
Oh man, I remember being
a kid barely sitting
at Fairmont park singing,
writing, dreaming,
hoping for moments like these.
- Wow haven't met here in years.
- This used to be our
spot back in the day.
So many memories around
here, man, the bridge
the water, we used to have
some good times out here.
- Well, somebody is in a
good mood.
Dressing rehearsals must be
going nicely.
- I guess it's just
I don't know how I feel about
leaving it all behind so soon.
You know ever since I've been
here,
I just been focused on me.
I ain't had no time to get
up with you and see how
things are going with you.
- I'm good Will.
The record store has been busy
24/7.
So I really haven't had
much time for anything else.
- So you ain't got a man.
- Yeah Jesus.
- You know what I mean?
Come on Shardae, you special
beautiful and intelligent,
and successful business woman.
I mean, I just feel
like the dude's gotta be
knocking your doors down.
- Yeah knock on my doors down,
but I'm just not interested.
Well, since you so nosy and
interested.
How about you find me somebody.
- Oh nosy.
- Yes.
- Wow man I was just looking out
for you
trying to make sure you find a
good one.
Speaking of, I actually know
somebody.
- Oh really?
- Yeah you know they say he's
super fine,
super musically inclined
and always on time.
Like aye yi yi.
- But I can't with you.
See this is the Will I love
and I wish the world could see
it.
Cute, goofy knucklehead.
- Aw you think I'm cute?
Come on at least you know,
I could be real with you.
- So what about your fiance?
- Yeah, I don't really know
what that is these days.
Tell me you remember when we
wrote "The Life" right here?
- Of course but do you
remember the original harmony?
- Of course I do.
What was it?
When we wrote that song?
I'm not gonna lie.
I thought things would be a lot
different.
- You know you don't have to
settle.
It's not too late make it right.

You know you always dance so
great.
Lovely lady.
Good rehearsal.
I'm about to check in
with sound real quick.
And then we clean up some more
choreo.
Hey Jamie real quick.
I'm not liking the way
my vocals are sounding.
Can you add some more reverb
when we get over in the room?
- Yeah first off you sounded
great.
Kiaira told me not to add any
more reverb.
- No, no Kiara got nothing to
do with the way I sound, I do.
So go over there and add some
more reverb
like I asked got it?
- Yes, sir.
- Cool also while you're at it,
can you talk to the lighting
designer?
The lights ain't doing nothing
for me.
They gotta dance we need like
some gobos
or some movers or something.
Can y'all do something about
that.
- I don't want to be combative.
- Kiaira told me I can't
make any set design
changes without her prior
approval.
She said she has to approve
everything.
- No, no excuse me.
Kiaira said what?
- Will, baby, listen.
- I'll get right on that for
you.
- So yeah, about that Kiaira
thought
we should change that too.
- Yo Rodney you're my homie.
But you got to start
realizing who pays who here.
Alright when I ask
somebody to do something
in my rehearsal, I want to hear
yes sir.
- Yes, sir.
- Got it sir.
- Got it sir.
- My pleasure, sir.
- My pleasure sir.
- I'm sick of hearing all this
goddamn
Kiaira said, Kiaira said this my
show.
And if y'all could implement
that,
that y'all could both hit the
door.
And I mean that, bro.
I don't wanna hit any doors.
I don't ain't deal with this
shit no more.
- Okay I'm sorry, I'm sorry.
- What? Will, no, one's
begging you to be here.
Okay Staci G is ready.
- You two are hilarious.
- No, no, no chill Rod.
- What you mean Staci G's ready?
This is my show.
- I mean that this show is
gonna go on with or without you.
I just wonder what your
fans are gonna think
when they find out that their
little favorite artists backed
out because he didn't get his
way.
- Man, fuck them fans.
And this dumb ass show
is deeper than that.
And you know what Kiaira,
you've been trying to control
and manipulate my career
with your analytics and all
your formula since day one.
But guess what?
You can't recreate God given
talent.
- Will please.
- And it's right here.
Something your ass won't
never know nothing about.
Kiaira what you got to realize?
This is a thousand of you
but it's only one of me.
And I mean that.
- He didn't mean that.
- Yes he did.
- If you think that you
can make it without me
go right ahead.
But don't you dare come running
back
when everything falls apart.
- Will she didn't mean it bro.
What're doing?
- Hey Ki fuck you.
- Will, Will we can fix this.
Will, Will.
- Rodney he's washed we got
Staci
and she is the future.
- Let's go.
- Like, I really hope
he takes his pompous ass
and stops alienating folks
and talking about his fans
like give the younger
artists a chance instead
of sabotaging his own career.
But his new music sounded good
though.
So I'm still listening
to the album, even though he had
jerk.
You done with him?
- I ain't got no word, nothing
enough.
I have nothing left to say.
- I guess for next time on TKA
all day.

So are the rumors true.
No
Ugh

So you're going to drown
yourself in your sorrows.
Shardae look, I'm done.
I'm done with music.
I'm done with the business

Look news flash.
I ain't perfect, I tried to be
but people mess up every day.
- Will, ain't nobody perfect,
but I'm not
going to let you sit
here and sink yourself
into a depression.
So you need to get up, clean up,
and just
deal with your demons.
- It's so easy for you
to say from the outside,
looking in. This all I know,
everybody want
to see another entertainer,
crash and burn
and I'm supposed to just lose it
all.
That's bullshit Shardae and you
know it.

Okay I'm the only one looking

Like I did back in the day in
drama club.
- Oh you know I still can't
believe you hit me right?
- Of course, with that mouth
of yours, you had it coming.
Shardae
- This is all a mess right now.
I ain't talked to Kiaira
or Rodney since everything went
down.
Well, what about the
dream you told me about
About you taking a break from
being
the artist and focusing on Staci
G.
You got to let the Lord light
the fire
that is born inside of you and
just put it into your craft.
- It's funny I forgot all about
that.
I've been so consumed
with the world, turning on Will
Clay.
- See he's just needed
a little Shardae love.
- You are so special Shardae,
I love you.
- Wow
Really?
Look Ki,
Really Will?
Ki, Ki, Ki,

ain't what it look like.
And to think I came over here

things.

You ain't nothing but a little
boy

You scary!
- Oh boy.
- That's okay.
Let it out.
We know he did you wrong.
- I just tried to stand
up for him, you know
be everything that he needed.
But I guess that just wasn't
enough.
I was the one taking all the Ls,
you know
I was the one picking up the
pieces and rearranging them
you know, making sure that
he looked good at all times
but I guess for somebody
like William Clay Gregory
the third, that just wasn't
important.
You know, but,
I mean,
At the end of the day
the money is what talks right?
- Wow.
So did you know that
he was cheating on you
with Jordan Holmes?
- You know, Jay, I didn't
want to believe it,
but me being me
I believed him when he said
that it wasn't recent, you know
I didn't have any reason not
to, so I took his word for it
and I kept it moving.
You know, that's what black
women do.
- Sounds like you were
something special. A real rider.
I mean, that's how I was raised,
you know, with honesty and
integrity.
The only good thing that
came out of this situation
is that Rodney and I was
able to start our own label
and we were able an sign
amazing artist Staci G.
You know, I got an awesome
partner, an awesome artist
out of an unfortunate
and horrible situation.
- I know that's right.
Now what we really want to know
is,
did you get the bag from his
lying ass?
- Let's just say I am not
the unfortunate one okay?
- Well let me be the first
to say congratulations
on your new label and project.
Thank you so much.
Tell us some more about
what you got going on.
- My pleasure Jay.
So our label is No Mercy Records
and the first artist to
be released is Staci G
and her first single is titled
"Should've Known", which is
actually my story with Will,
you know, somehow Staci
was there to witness some
of the horrible things that he
and I went through and her
being such an amazing artist.
She was able to capture some
of that raw pain and emotion
that I had gone through and
was able to put into the song.
- Oh so y'all like
Jermaine Dupri and Usher
with the Confessions.
- I mean, I hadn't thought
about it, but you can say that.
- All right, now we definitely
have a special treat
for our listeners.
First let's get into this
new Staci G song and maybe
after the commercial break,
we can get into some more tea
about Will Clay and his
retirement announcement.
- Maybe.
- It's Rod talk to me.
Rod
- Bro tell me what I just saw
in the interview ain't true bro.
Please tell me
you ain't steal my artist and
started a label with Kiaira.
- Whoa bro, what's up man.
It's been a minute how you
doing?
- A minute?
nigga you stole my artist
- Bro calm down man its just
busines. It's just business.
- nigga you stole my artist.
Are you serious you're are
supposed to be my manager.
Nigga you supposed to be my
brother.
- Listen Will once the label
offered you the new deal.
And you turn it down.
Idiot. What was I supposed to
do?
- Keep my career in your hands.
Fight for me dog.
You ain't never heard of that?
- You were supposed to fight for
me.
- Will listen the only
time that I throw my hands
up is where the money is.
And right now the money is with
Ki.
- Y'all some money hungry, blood
sucking, energy sucking hoes
Look, I'm good. Look big
dog, bro, bro, get your money
I'm good.
Get your money but I promise on
Everything. I love nigga.
I'm going to let the
whole world know how much
of a weak ass.
Goof ass, pussy ass niggaa you

And that's on everything I love.
- Listen, I got to go man.
I see you later alright.
I, it was good talking to you.
- Get off my line nigga.
- What the hell do you want?
- I've been trying to reach you
for weeks
there's been a huge problem.
What the hell happened now?
God damn!
I was looking through your
accounts and notice a lot
of inconsistencies and your
taxes haven't been paid either.
I signed a check every month.
Kiaira and Rodney supposed
to be paying that.
Come on man, it's just,
you've got this wrong.
You need to talk to Kiaira and
Rodney.
I see the checks have been
cashed
but they were made
out to a company called I.R.S.
Looks like a shell company.
Since you didn't make
arrangements
and you haven't returned
my calls for a month,
the feds are going to be
at your home tomorrow
morning to cease property.
- Will?
Will?
You okay?
Are you there?
Will?
What did I do?
- God I'm sorry
I'm sorry.
- You what it do?
I need a favor.
What's up? You alright?
- Yeah I'm good.
I need a place to stay
for a couple nights.
It's a long story.
I don't feel like explaining.
I'll tell you I get there.
You need to stay at my...
Look say no more just let me
know when you're on your way.
- I appreciate you.
- Alright man don't worry
about it. We brothers.
All right.
- I'ma see you in a few.
Alright bet

- Good, whatever you've done in
the past
you need to leave it there.
All right.
You taking responsibility for
your actions
but you can't hold on to that,
that guilt
and shame that you're feeling.
Because it'll eat you up inside
and it'll destroy everything you
touch.
You gained the world and
now you've experienced
what it's like to lose your
soul.
It's time to let Jesus.
restore it for you, rebuild it.
We didn't pull all that word
unto you
when you were growing up just
for you not to have it available
to you when you need it the
most.
- Dad man you don't even know
how relieved that makes me feel.
I've been ashamed of myself,
people pleasing and
protecting a false image
I thought because I wasn't from
a bad area
or didn't have bad parents
that I had to make this image.
Just to make people like me.
- Listen son, you need
to take pride in the fact
that you didn't do that and
know that we're behind you
no matter what, even when
you act like a heathen.
- Pops I love you, man.

I know you're a changed man.
And I'm so excited that you're
here
today to perform your new song.
I was really curious what the
inspiration was for this one.

for this song was the woman who
made it,
her standard that I love me

Come on, come on. We gotta move.
Come on. We gotta move.
- Yo, I'm just trying to figure
out where she got that from.
Rodney, bro.
Bro, you're not gonna believe
this.

paparazzi ask about me
and Jordan.
- Man, stop.
Ain't nobody know about you or
Jordan.
Man, you're tripping.

Let's just, just breathe daddy.
Just breathe.

- And that's just the business.
It's just a business man.
- Who put the camera in the
room.
- You're right.
- How did the camera get in
here?
- It's a mystery a foot
They were on some super
Ninja CIA spy type shit.
I wonder what kind of camera
that was.
- Rodney how you so nonchalant
about this?
Well, first of all, for
starters, it's not me.
- Wow.
- Secondly, all press is good
press
that you know.
- No, you must've forgot about
Thick.
His last album was bomb
and it's still flopped.
- Oh, you got a point
'bout that.
Look, you got five minutes to
get ready
for this Kamilah Trill
interview.
Look, daddy, you be good man.
I'll see you out there.
- Today on the show we have
a multi-platinum selling
heartthrob of our generation.
The amazing and now
controversial Will Clay.
- Thank you for having me
Kamilah.
It was always dope coming down
here,
checking you out at Epic.
How was your first ride?
- listen, you know
we have to put that into
perspective for the people.
You were my first major
interview as a journalist.
- Yeah I mean, what else could
I have been talking about?
- Well, let's cut to the chase.
You're back with the new album.
What's next, is slated to
be your comeback project.
But critics are all wondering
whether or not it will live
up to the success of
your previous releases.
- I mean I know it's a lot going
on in the media as of this
morning
but I can take it.
You know, when I think my fans
are going
to be thoroughly pleased
with what we got going
for them on the album.
- You sound very confident
about your new album.
- Well I mean, my paps always
told me,
even if you got to smile
through bad situations to
smile and get through them.
- Speaking of difficult
situations.
You were recently caught
on tape with the pop star,
Jordan Holmes.
How does your girlfriend
Kiaira K feel about that?
She can't be handling
that well.
- Kamilah, we're right here,
we're going there already!
- I can't hold back with my
first, right?
- Listen Kamilah.
- I love Kiaira always will.
And that's that?
So my new single "Ain't Just
Sex".
I'm actually performing it
for the first time tonight in
Philly.
So you actually should come
through.
Everybody's invited to
come and check it out.
- Will, are you deflecting?
- No.
- Just talking about what
matters.
- Right, what's up baby
- Let's welcome Kiaira K
publicist
to the stars to the show.
So you are saying this happens.
- No, what we're saying is we
wanna focus
on the album, not the
negativity.
- Okay, so when was the first
time
that you cheated on Kiaira?
Was this recently?
- Kamilah, can we focus
on the album, please.
- Why don't you just tell the
truth.
- Kamilah, it didn't happen.
Okay he did not cheat on me.
I know Will, that video
was old long before he
and I even got together.
- Will, why don't you just
admit that you made a mistake?
We all know you're not perfect.
Even though you pretend to be.
- I asked you not to discuss
this.
I have not cheated on Kiaira.
Now please can we keep
back to the interview
before I turn into a meme on
this show.
- And we'll be right back
after this commercial break
with the Kamilah Trill Show.
- Kamilah, what the
hell is wrong with you?
You set me up.
- Told you that nothing was
off the table, stop tryna people
please.
And just admit not just
to her and your fans, but to
yourself.
- Look Kamilah.
We're trying to give you
an opportunity to fix
this like a professional
or if you'd like for me
to step out of character
I can drag you across
a little gossip show.
- Oh, excuse me.
You're threatening me for
telling
the truth about Will's foolery.
Everyone knows that Will has
been cheating
on you for years Kiaira
The whole industry knows.
- Come on she's lying
Ki. She one of the ones
- Cheating with who?
- This is business and ratings
are going to be ratings.
Whether or not you wanna pretend
that the whole world didn't see
him
and Jordan on tape.
Or let's not R Kelly this
situation.
Just tell the truth Will.
- Listen Kamilah, what I do and
don't do
don't got shit to do with you.
Aight.
But please don't forget who I
am.
- You're delusional.
You're everybody's business.
You're a public figure.
And you screwed up royally.
- We are about to come from
commerical show, places
everybody.
- Either you talk or you leave
either way
I'm gonna be reporting
your news, Mr. Perfect.
- Okay cool.
Actually, Kamilah, I got a
story for you.
Kiss my ass.
- Ooh, word?
- And we're back from our
commercial break with Kiaira K.
Girl let's talk.
- Let's talk.
- Hey Dad.
- Son how're you doing?
- I heard about what's going on.
♪ Happy birthday to you
♪ Happy birthday to you
♪ Happy birthday William
Clay Gregory the Third ♪
♪ Happy birthday to you
We love you, Will.
We saw your interview on the
TV and I thought you said
that Kamilah girl was your
friend.
She seemed a little rude if you
asked me.
- Mom she was just doing he job.
I mean honestly.
Everybody wanted her to go
hard and then that on me.
So I think I came out pretty
good.
- Anyway it's just uncomfortable
for us to see you go under so
much pressure on national TV.
- Speaking of pressure Will.
How's Kiaira
you know, dealing with all this.
- You knew her handled the
business
and cleaning up the mess.
- Alright.
Well, tell her, I asked for, I
got to go check on the mac and
cheese.
- Hey Will, you still here?
- I'm still here Pops.
- Look here now I know you're
dealing
with something that I
can't even understand.
Fame and life in the limelight.
You got everyone up in your
business.
That could be overwhelming now
now just remember your
foundation
and put your trust in God.
Thank you dad.
I needed to hear that right
about now.
- You always got a home here,
all right?
If you need to come back here
and you need a break and leave
that popstar bunnies alone.
- Okay dad.
- And don't forget.
Think about what I said.
- Mommy loves you Will.
- I love y'all too.
- I know y'all done heard what
happened
what happened on Kamilah Trill
today?
Will Clay, ya boy dropped the
ball
on live television and Kamila
pressed him
about him cheating on his
fiance with Jordan Holmes.
- Embarrassing.
- Let tell you, we got all the
tea today.
- Totally, totally
unacceptable and embarrassing.
But what do you expect
from a guy like Will Clay?
- You just don't like him.
- No, it's not that I don't like
him.
It's just that
like I said, I judge
people by their actions.
- Yes.
- Okay, his action is showing
time
and time again that he's a piece
of shit.
That's it.
He's a piece of shit
and I'm not surprised.
Okay, you're surprised?
- I can give him a little bit
more credit
than you're giving him.
- I'm not surprised at all.
What I am surprised is that
Kiaira is coming to his defense.
Like why is she coming to his
defense
when he cheated on her?
That's crazy to me.
- So black women, we do
have to stop doing this.
We have to stop putting
ourselves
as the sacrifice in front of
black men.
She should have just let him
and left his ass out there
and let him do whatever he
needed to do and catch that L.
- Apparently now I'm no moral
authority.
Okay, but I can call out.
Definitely, I can call out low
character.
When I see it now,
Kiaira needs to leave him
instead of coming to his
defense.
- Black men, don't cheat,
that's what they say.
Unfortunately this one did
'cause they got the footage to
prove it,
baby I done seen that thang.
And it's crazy.
But to be honest, this is
probably a publicity stunt.
That Kiaira has set up in order
to help promote his new album.
Cause that's what we're
all talking about him now.
- No, no, no.
It's not a publicity stunt.
Okay, alright.
What do you expect from
Will the heartthrob
- I can give him more
credit than you give him.
- No, trust me.
He's not gonna be faithful
to anyone but himself.
It's just, it is what it is.
See things for what they
are it is what it is.
- Look, I couldn't really
tell if it was him.
It was kind of like that, you
know?
- It was him.
- Okay, I guess look,
we got the tea everyday,
all day on TKA.
See you guys next time.
I'm your girl Mona.
- I'm your boy, Justin.
- Justin don't like Will Clay,
but we out here love you guys,
peace.
- Check it out.
- What?
- What y'all think.
- Think about what, why
are we here?
What is this?
- This is my inspiration
for my next video.
For "Ain't Just Sex" came
down here.
I was looking
at it and I'm like, this is
the direction I'm trying to go.
- Okay first of all,
we need to be focusing
on getting in front
of this Kamilah Trill interview
and this Jordan Holmes video.
- This is my way of
getting in front of it.
With the music.
I'm telling you
It's doper than it looks.
Rod, What you think?
I don't know man. I kind of
like the smoke,
baby oil...girls.
- nigga nigga.
I just got in trouble for that.
No, come on a slap in
the face to the fans.
If I did something like that,
promoting sex.
I'm thinking now,
imagine it lit
up electric. I'm telling you.

We need to focus on the real
Okay, you can hump all the
lil groupies that you want.
That's our deal.
That's fine.
But now it's in the public eye
and you embarrass the hell
out of me on national TV.
Ki, I didn't know anyone was
going to record it. Come on.
Oh, so now it's the person
that taped its problem.
You were sloppy.
And Jordan of all people

- I don't know.
- Take a picture.
Show these people that
we're still together.
Aye, good thinking.

show.
Maybe it'll take care of some of
the backlash from today's
debacle
In the meantime, I called you
a car. Go home, wash the smug
of your face and dress like
you're the life of the party.
I don't wanna do all that
You don't have a choice right
now
this album has to pop.
You've destroyed all of my
footwork for you to bust a nut.
Okay you're going to shake hands
and you're gonna kiss
as much ass you have to.
- So now I'm just a monkey in a
cage.
- You gotta do what you gotta do
you are the one that messed up.
- Wow.
- Let's go.
Hey, you!
Happy birthday Will Clay
Gregory or is it Mr. Super star.
- Look I saw your your
dumb self on Kamilah Trill
Why you ain't come back
after the commercial break.
Look I get it. But it
was already out there.
You should have just got ahead
of it.
Instead of acting like
we all see bunny hopping
with your Jordan.
Girl, you know that wasn't me
Who I look like?
Stop reaching for everyone's
approval
If I can love you all these
years.
So can everyone else.
- You're really funny.
- Now can you

- Please you wish.
- Maybe.
- Anyway, bye Will.
- Bye Shardae.
Thank you for calling me.
Hey, ya'll.
Yo! What's up
- Look I just got off the phone
with Will not too long ago.
And I was thinking that we

You know the paparazzi

Sounds good. Let's bounce.
Uh, whatever we do I'm going
to need one of y'all to
spot me because my
pockets on lean right now.
Child support...

in this.
- Ki, what you do?
- Send out a casting call
for the industry's most smug and
elite.
It's my birthday.
Do I even know any of these
people?
Or are they your little money
team?
- Cut it out, Will
Okay, doing you a favor.
I filled this room
with the industry's
deepest pockets for you
What you need to do is be
grateful and play your role.
Now, turn it on
- And stop acting like a little
boy.
I know there's a man in there
somewhere.
Let's go!
Kamal - What's going on, man?
- You hear that music?

Yo, check it for Mally Mal.
Let me see that.
Yo, who is you?
No!
Tao?

- Excuse me.
There must be some mistake.
- There's no mistake.
Your name is not on the list,

I'm sure if you just take a look
here

Will.
- Your name is not on the list.

Sir, my friend he tried to be
nice to you
But I'm not the one
So if you just please step
aside and make a way for us
We won't make a scene for
you and your bougie guest.
Ok
- You can make a scene if you
want to
but you're only going to
be embarrassing yourselves.
Now please take your
ratchet friends to the side.
And shuffle back to the
hood where you came from
- Listen Will, this next
album is already sounding
like another classic and it's
projected to be his best
selling project thus far due
to the anticipation with
Will's musical achievements
and his recent decision
to move over into film.
It's perfect timing

with some major brands
both domestically and
internationally, right babe.

- Yes your fiance.

African ass out the way.

My new friends,
Matt and Tara wanted to meet

Bullshit
Listen, they'll get over it.
This isn't a party for them
anyway.
- Oh that's how you feel
about my best friends?
- Look, it is what it is.
Okay their cute little common

And we need to act like it.

But I don't think she was
being shady on purpose.
- Speak of the devil.

world,
but only if we had an invite.
- Oh, I'm so sorry, I heard

I know you guys are like his
family.

- I'm not insinuating I'm
stating

time
and just admit you don't
bang with us you claim.
- You want to keep it real.
I'm here for Will and Will only.
And I have no interest in
you three stooges around me.
It breeds jealousy when the
people around you are succeeding
and you're stuck at your
little nine to five.
- Shardae, please do me a favor
and snatch this jawn weave out.
- I'm going to let her
live off Will's hard work
and success another year.
She'll be riding more coattails
before the night's end.
- That's what she's good at.
- Hey, Will, Will come on man.

- Y'all know the producer?
Guess what he wants me to be
the lead in his next film.

- Yeah, you love to lie.
- No I don't.
But you don't mind if I lie
and it benefits you, come here.

- Hell yeah.
But who laid down in reference?
That is Staci G.
We were working on it for a
while now.
You want me to go get her out of
studio B?
- Yo is she signed,
'cause if she ain't signed
I think I'm gonna need to
get her for my new label.
- Yo, I've been telling her
that you would love her style.
She reminds me of you. I'ma go
get her.
- Alright.
- Will baby girl, Staci G.
Staci it's the homie Will Clay.
Staci I just played him the
track

Yo I'm telling you she's
the next Lauryn Hill.
- Yo, this is crazy.
It is so amazing to meet you.
Like I grew up listening to you.
So for you to be standing here
is insane.
You're like one of my greatest
inspiration
- But first of all, grew up come
on.
Don't make me feel so old.
How old are you anyway?
- 18.
- Okay maybe I am old.
Oh, what was I doing when I was
18?
I think I was just signing my
first deal.
- Yo, Stacy plays the hell
out of the guitar too.
And that's all I got plugged to
her.
I wanted a guitarist and
I was looking for a lady
so everybody recommended Staci.
- Okay so you play the
guitar and you sing.
Question?
You're trying to be a musician
or you're trying to be an
artist?
- An artist for sure.
- Okay, okay.
You got any more original
music I can hear.
- Well I've been producing with
my iPad since I was like 15
and Mell has been working
me for months now.
- Staci, I know you just didn't
tell me
you've been producing on the
iPad.
Bro man times have truly
changed.
For real.
I got an idea though.
Staci G how would you feel
about opening up for Will Clay?
On my new world tour, and
possibly sign into my new label?
- What, hell yeah I'm with all
of that.
- Okay, that's what I like to
hear
but I'm gonna tell you this
though.
I ain't going to go easy on you.
Cause that just ain't the Will
Clay way.
- You better not go easy.
Cause it wasn't nobody easy on
you.
You already know.
- Oh, look, I'm here for all of
it.
But I was wondering
would you be willing to sing
the song that I referenced
for Rell as a duet
instead of by yourself?
- Staci G and Will Clay.
Yo, I think I'm here for that.
Let's go cut it now.
You got to show me all those
riffs and runs you was doing.

- Not a priority, short
term, instant cash.
I've told you that.
- Okay alright.
- Hey, yo, yo!
Yo y'all killed it, y'all killed
it.
Yessir,
You know her. Ki, look I
wanted you to meet her.
- Who is this and what is she
doing here?
Yo, this is my home girl, Staci.
Lemme play you something.
♪ I don't need steak and eggs,
♪ Or breakfast in bed,
♪ 'Cause you always keep me

Where y'all fin this one at?
Wouldn't you like to know.
Ki, I wanna sign her.
- Why it's one track don't
be so impulsive William?
You just heard the song.
You thought it was good.
I mean, come on.
She's exactly what we looking
for.
- Hi, I can't believe I'm in the
same room with Will Clay
and Kiaira K.
- And we can't believe
we're in the same room
as Staci G G, G.
- Stop stop don't embarrass me.
- Ki I told you, look, we got to
sign her.
- I mean, that wasn't bad.
I mean she does have some raw
talent here.
- With a little direction
you could be somebody make
sure to get information, okay?
- I got you.
You'll get it before you leave.
Come on, let's get something to
eat.
Talk to me baby, come
on.
You can come too!
She was good baby.
Check this out. I got
a little gift for you.
Ooouu is it the new Tesla?
- Hey guys.
What's up?
To all my home bodies out there.
Thank you for holding me
down and having my back.
Cause these last couple
of weeks have been crazy.
People have been calling out my
name.
Paparazzi is harassing me
and my family everywhere I go
about
rumors
and lies.
Look I just want to set the
record straight.
Okay Will and I are just
friends.
The footage isn't recent,
and he's actually like...
He's like a mentor
and there hasn't been anything
between us
I respect him and Kiaira's
relationship
and I expect y'all to do the
same.
Okay on another note,
my single's coming out.
- What?
Babe.
- You're welcome.
- Oh, how'd you do that?
- I got my sources.
- That's talking about my baby
Kiaira K
Ooh, ooh ooh come here Kiaira K
Ooh, Ooh!
Hey come on, let's go.
K.
You're a fool
- Goodnight.
Sorry we're closed.
- Perfect timing.
- What you're doing here?
I'm vindicated, baby.
- I see things must be going
good
if you're doing a surprise pop
ups
on your friends.
- Come on, Shardae I said I'm
sorry.
- So you just came to kick it
or apologize for the other day.
- I actually came to talk to
you.
I need a little bit of
advice or something.
And I know he wanted a
few people in my life.
We're actually gonna keep
it one hundred with me.
All right, wassup?
You know how rough
stuff been going lately.
And I just been thinking
about getting older
as an artist and what I'm
going to do after this.
And I know I'm not too old yet
but I've been doing this for a
long time
and it's really starting
to take a toll on me.
- You in your feelings again,
talking
about taking a break from your
music.
Is that what you really want to
do?
- Not all the way, look check it
out.
So I met this artist's name,
Staci G,
And she is cold, she's lit
When I tell you she just got the
IT factor
and it dawned on me.
Maybe I could develop an artist.
I'm more than just my voice.
- So what y'all going to be
like a Rick James and Teena
Marie.
You got jokes. See girl
you always playing too much.
- No I'm going sign her.
I'm a develop her, write with
her,
create a classic album and bow
out as Will
artist and welcome as Will the
executive.
- It's ambitious I like it.
You know I'll support your
stuff.
Oh, thank you!
- So is Kiaira cool with this?
- What'd you think about last
night?
- What sex?
- No Stacey G at the studio.
- Why are we talking about this
now?
I'm ready to go upstairs for
round two.
- Because it's just been
on my mind heavy and I'm
want to make sure we lock her
down before we lose her.
- Look, she was good and all
well, but we need to focus
on you and getting you locked
into this long-term deal.
That's money on the table now.
- I just think about it.
Staci could be the key to
getting our record label
off the ground and I could
retire and maybe just transition
into working on her and me
and you guess what we can do?
You can start a family.
You talking about retiring and
becoming
a produ... Chile! Please.
you need to worry about singing.
And let me and Rodney
worry about your career.
All right.
Wow!
I will see you later, family,
man.
- Wow goodnight to you too.
- So Kiaira, isn't cool with it.
- Not the way she was talking.
- But would you do it without
her?
- I don't know, I've been with
Kiaira
and Rod for so long.
It's like, I couldn't
even imagine my life,
or my career without them.
- Well you need to do what's
best for you.
And sometimes Rodney and Kiaira
don't have your best interests
in mind.
- Why are you so dope Shardae?
You've been literally one of
the most consistent people
in my life.
- All your life, and best
friends
tell each other the truth.
And I don't want you to waking
up one day
and just realizing that your
purpose was right in front
of you.
You are more than a
beautiful man that can sing.
- So you think I'm beautiful.
- Always ruining a tender
moment with ya pretty ass.
- Hey baby.
- Rodney, how you doing man?
Thank you so much.
Thank you man.
I appreciate it.
Oh the good stuff, huh?
- Hey Steve.
You mind if I get another round
of that?
Oh yeah.
Feel free to indulge.
- Yeah damn right.
- Especially you Will.
I'm gonna take this whole bottle
home.
- So we want to commend you all.
Will, Rodney, and Kiaira for all
of your hard work and
achievements
and your new world tour
that we believe will be your
best yet.
- Thank you so much.
It's shaping up to be pretty
lit.
We all know by now that
initially we had some doubts
onto whether or not we
could get a good return
from an RnB album that seemed to
speak
to only a certain demographic.
But ultimately, ultimately, you
surpassed those expectations
with the creation of this new
album.
- Your support means
everything to us Steve,
thank you so much.
- So how about these contracts
cause that's why we're here
tonight right?
That is why we're here, right?
- See, that's what I like about
you.
You put your business first
- You know.
- So let me introduce
you to Braxton McCall.
He is our bright new
executive that was brought
over from the merger with BCMA.
- Think he was at the
birthday party right?
- Yeah, he was.
So this is more like
your second introduction.
- I recognize you man.
Good to see you.
- Good to see you.
Thank you, Steve.
Will, my sole purpose is to
strengthen our partnership
with the deal that benefits us
all
and takes your career to the
next level.
So I'll be teaming up
with Kiaira and Rodney behind
the scenes
to ensure that dream.
I think you'll be happy
with our very lucrative offer
that far exceeds any offer
that any R&B artists would
receive
in today's climate.
This agreement would take
effect,
once you first step
on stage for your new
world tour this summer.
- We want you to know how
much you're valued Will.
- Damn, I mean, well,
yes, this is good stuff.
- Will.
- I mean, it's a nice
number, but it's a 360.
I don't do those.
- Look, I totally understand.
Look, 360's get a bad rep
but I still think you can
see the benefits of this.
- Will everyone in this room
knows how amazing you are
and all of the great
talents that you possess.
Braxton and Steve, wanna make
you the face
of their new merger and
a major brand worldwide.
Our first priority is going
to be getting you moved
from the East coast to LA,
where BMCA is finest agents are
located
and getting you into the new
artist development program.
- Wait what?
I just moved back.
Y'all want me to go back
and do what? I know y'all
don't think Will Clay going
through anybody's artist
development program and
actually did Kiaira tell y'all
that I'm actually not even sure
that I want to be an artist
anymore.
I kind of want to get on a
backend and do some producing.
- Will, I'm confused I just...
- Do you mind if we just had
a moment with Will outside?
- Kiki look I know what I want.
I know what I want.
Okay, we'll be back.
- I don't know why y'all had
to pull me out to meeting.
Being all dramatic.
- Somebody want to tell me
what the hell was that in there?
- That was Mr. Gregory over here
wants
to leave all this money on the
table.
So you can start his new record
label
with his muse for the day, Staci
G.
- Hold on.
Wait, Nobody thought it
was important to tell me
that before we walked in there?
- Think about it y'all we don't
need them.
The three of us, we know the
game
but we also know music.
Add that with Staci well we got
magic.
- Will, I get it, but it's a
lot of commas in there, man.
- A lot of commas.
- Can we do both?
- Bro that's chump change
compared to our work
Think about it.
If we get ownership
we're not living off the
advances that the label given
us.
It's a big picture move here,
bro.
Come on.
You know what?
It's my career.
Y'all gotta do what I tell
y'all to do because I pay y'all.
I write the checks.
So this is what I want.
This is what I'm going to go
in there and make it happen.
That's all I'm saying.
- Relax, you're getting a
little, worked up, calm down.
Let's talk about that.
- All right, listen Ki
you go in there, make something
up.
- Make something up?
You guys?
Oh my God.
- You you go home, and go get
some rest.
And we'll reconvene tomorrow.
We'll figure this out, okay?
- Rodney, Kiaira, this
is deeper than what know.
I made a promise to my
grandfather many years ago
at his grave that I would never
settle.
And then I would always remember
that all things are possible
through Christ and y'all
gotta make it happen.
- Okay, okay, I'll handle it
and I'll make sure we take care
of what you need first and
foremost, okay?
- Fix this.
- But listen, this is
what I find interesting.
I always took Will Clay to be
selfish.
Like he's like a pretty boy.
- Cause he is.
He definitely is.
But, it looked like he wanted
to do something a little bit
more than sing apparently.
Ya know my sources tells me
that he done turn down the
multi-million dollar deal
in pursuit of doing his
own thing independently.
- Okay, I see you, Will Clay.
I'm not gonna turn down
a big deal like that,
but it's okay to each's own.
But listen, maybe he
wants to change directions
and not be so egocentric.
You know, maybe he might
be on his Nipsey Hussle,
you know, inspire everybody for
change.
You know, he might be different
now.
- I doubt it.
You asked me that was a fool ass
move.
- Dang, that's how he doing it.
TKA all day.
You know how we do bring you
the tea every day, all day,
have a good night guys.
- Hey, I'm at my mom's house and
You won't believe what I found.
All these old behind CDs
and mixetapes from a billion
years ago.
- You got my favorite one in
there.
- You mean the one you made
thinking it..
- You know it. That was my
old G. The goat, the greatest,
The legend, Usher Raymond
- Ew fan boy. I remember
you used to pop lock
and dance under the fire
hydrant, pretending it was rain.
Oh, please don't act like I
was the only one acting crazy.
I can't even count how many
times
I remember butchering that boy
is mine
and still at the, all these
years.
You still ain't picked aside.
- And we are not having
this conversation tonight
and don't be mad
because your dad banned
Lil Kim and Foxy Brown.
Once he heard them lyrics.
- There's a whole lesson on
temptation.
Well, thank God.
He never caught you doing
your LL impersonation.
- Oh, I could still do it.
- Bye. I am not impressed.
Anyway do you remember the
first one that we made?
- Of course I do.
Will and Shardae volume one.
- I'm looking at it right now.
And guess what I just picked up,
Brandy.
- Seriously, "always on
my mind", that was always
in heavy rotation.
- but how'd you turn a joyful
song into a mournful song.
That's what I'm trying to figure
out.
- You know that was around
the time grandpa died.
So just was always listening
to that one all the time.
Everybody else drifted in
they own little weird world.
You was the only one who leaned
in.
- That's the best friends do.
- True.
- All right that's enough
reminiscing
I got to go Will.
- All right bye.
- Bye.
- All right now don't forget.
Braxton has the camera
crew following us now okay?
- Yeah yeah blah-blah-blah
what's up everybody.
It's your boy the big dog
Rodney Rod baby how are you
doing my ladies out there.
We out on the road first tour
stop.
Get ready to get kicked
off and we gonna show some
behind the scenes real quick.
Kiaira, what's up baby
you looking good tonight.
- Hi.
- How are you doing?
- Rodney you have something
to do like your job?
- But mommy that's boring.
Ladies and gentlemen you already
know
the one and the only newest
member
of the team is Staci G.
She only goes by one letter in
her name
cause she thinks she's an icon.
I don't know where she get that
from
- Leave me alone.
- Okay but baby sing
something for them real quick.
- Leave me alone,
- And we gonna save
that for the tour y'all
Look, we got so much going on.
This man needs no
introduction because legends
let all their work do the
talking.
- Or their loud ass managers.
Boy, I'm on the phone.
- But that hurt bro, but ladies
and gentlemen it's Will Clay.
Willy Will baby, what's up man!
Tell the people the good news
man.
- Oh yeah the good news.

Have you ever done a real
dress rehearsal before?
- Yeah, but never really with
all these cameras around.
- That's a Kiaira thing
she got this thing.
Will, everything needs to be
documented.
Document this Kiaira what's up?
You like this, Kiaira, this is
of you.
No but I'm so proud of
you though seriously.
I know you're about to rock this
tour.
- Thank you so much.
You know, I was so nervous,
but you've been such
a great coach.
Like for real, my G pretty
good for a old head.
- Oh, oh now I'm old.
This is Stacy.
I knew it was something special
in you.
The moment I saw you and
now the whole world about
to see you starting
this tour off in Philly.
So you know what that means.
You bout to be singing
at one of the cities where
the dopest music came out of.
Oh man, I remember being
a kid barely sitting
at Fairmont park singing,
writing, dreaming,
hoping for moments like these.
- Wow haven't met here in years.
- This used to be our
spot back in the day.
So many memories around
here, man, the bridge
the water, we used to have
some good times out here.
- Well, somebody is in a
good mood.
Dressing rehearsals must be
going nicely.
- I guess it's just
I don't know how I feel about
leaving it all behind so soon.
You know ever since I've been
here,
I just been focused on me.
I ain't had no time to get
up with you and see how
things are going with you.
- I'm good Will.
The record store has been busy
24/7.
So I really haven't had
much time for anything else.
- So you ain't got a man.
- Yeah Jesus.
- You know what I mean?
Come on Shardae, you special
beautiful and intelligent,
and successful business woman.
I mean, I just feel
like the dude's gotta be
knocking your doors down.
- Yeah knock on my doors down,
but I'm just not interested.
Well, since you so nosy and
interested.
How about you find me somebody.
- Oh nosy.
- Yes.
- Wow man I was just looking out
for you
trying to make sure you find a
good one.
Speaking of, I actually know
somebody.
- Oh really?
- Yeah you know they say he's
super fine,
super musically inclined
and always on time.
Like aye yi yi.
- But I can't with you.
See this is the Will I love
and I wish the world could see
it.
Cute, goofy knucklehead.
- Aw you think I'm cute?
Come on at least you know,
I could be real with you.
- So what about your fiance?
- Yeah, I don't really know
what that is these days.
Tell me you remember when we
wrote "The Life" right here?
- Of course but do you
remember the original harmony?
- Of course I do.
What was it?
When we wrote that song?
I'm not gonna lie.
I thought things would be a lot
different.
- You know you don't have to
settle.

because sparkles that ain't
the aesthetic I'm going for
- No shut up Will, you look
fine.
Stop being overly dramatic,
okay?
I know you want to be your
own man and dress yourself
but less thinking more singing.
Okay leave the decision making
to me.
- What you tryna say.
I can't make my own decisions?
- What?
I am not having this
conversation right now, okay?
This is not the time or the
place

He was killing it man.
You know you always dance so
great.
Lovely lady.
Good rehearsal.
I'm about to check in
with sound real quick.
And then we clean up some more
choreo.
Hey Jamie real quick.
I'm not liking the way
my vocals are sounding.
Can you add some more reverb
when we get over in the room?
- Yeah first off you sounded
great.
Kiaira told me not to add any
more reverb.
- No, no Kiara got nothing to
do with the way I sound, I do.
So go over there and add some
more reverb
like I asked got it?
- Yes, sir.
- Cool also while you're at it,
can you talk to the lighting
designer?
The lights ain't doing nothing
for me.
They gotta dance we need like
some gobos
or some movers or something.
Can y'all do something about
that.
- I don't want to be combative.
- Kiaira told me I can't
make any set design
changes without her prior
approval.
She said she has to approve
everything.
- No, no excuse me.
Kiaira said what?
- Will, baby, listen.
- I'll get right on that for
you.
- So yeah, about that Kiaira
thought
we should change that too.
- Yo Rodney you're my homie.
But you got to start
realizing who pays who here.
Alright when I ask
somebody to do something
in my rehearsal, I want to hear
yes sir.
- Yes, sir.
- Got it sir.
- Got it sir.
- My pleasure, sir.
- My pleasure sir.
- I'm sick of hearing all this
goddamn
Kiaira said, Kiaira said this my
show.
And if y'all could implement
that,
that y'all could both hit the
door.
And I mean that, bro.
I don't wanna hit any doors.
I don't ain't deal with this
shit no more.
- Okay I'm sorry, I'm sorry.
- What? Will, no, one's
begging you to be here.
Okay Staci G is ready.
- You two are hilarious.
- No, no, no chill Rod.
- What you mean Staci G's ready?
This is my show.
- I mean that this show is
gonna go on with or without you.
I just wonder what your
fans are gonna think
when they find out that their
little favorite artists backed
out because he didn't get his
way.
- Man, fuck them fans.
And this dumb ass show
is deeper than that.
And you know what Kiaira,
you've been trying to control
and manipulate my career
with your analytics and all
your formula since day one.
But guess what?
You can't recreate God given
talent.
- Will please.
- And it's right here.
Something your ass won't
never know nothing about.
Kiaira what you got to realize?
This is a thousand of you
but it's only one of me.
And I mean that.
- He didn't mean that.
- Yes he did.
- If you think that you
can make it without me
go right ahead.
But don't you dare come running
back
when everything falls apart.
- Will she didn't mean it bro.
What're doing?
- Hey Ki fuck you.
- Will, Will we can fix this.
Will, Will.
- Rodney he's washed we got
Staci
and she is the future.
- Let's go.
- Like, I really hope
he takes his pompous ass
and stops alienating folks
and talking about his fans
like give the younger
artists a chance instead
of sabotaging his own career.
But his new music sounded good
though.
So I'm still listening
to the album, even though he had
jerk.
You done with him?
- I ain't got no word, nothing
enough.
I have nothing left to say.
- I guess for next time on TKA
all day.

I will knock it off the damn
hinges.
- Did you just kick my door?
Mmhmm
So are the rumors true.
No
Ugh
- What is all this?
So you're going to drown
yourself in your sorrows.
Shardae look, I'm done.
I'm done with music.
I'm done with the business
everything
Look news flash.
I ain't perfect, I tried to be
but people mess up every day.
- Will, ain't nobody perfect,
but I'm not
going to let you sit
here and sink yourself
into a depression.
So you need to get up, clean up,
and just
deal with your demons.
- It's so easy for you
to say from the outside,
looking in. This all I know,
everybody want
to see another entertainer,
crash and burn
and I'm supposed to just lose it
all.
That's bullshit Shardae and you
know it.
- Will, don't get hyped with me.
Okay I'm the only one looking

Like I did back in the day in
drama club.
- Oh you know I still can't
believe you hit me right?
- Of course, with that mouth
of yours, you had it coming.
Shardae
- This is all a mess right now.
I ain't talked to Kiaira
or Rodney since everything went
down.
Well, what about the
dream you told me about
About you taking a break from
being
the artist and focusing on Staci
G.
You got to let the Lord light
the fire
that is born inside of you and
just put it into your craft.
- It's funny I forgot all about
that.
I've been so consumed
with the world, turning on Will
Clay.
- See he's just needed
a little Shardae love.
- You are so special Shardae,
I love you.
- Wow
Really?
Look Ki,
Really Will?
Ki, Ki, Ki,
I promise you this
ain't what it look like.
And to think I came over here
to make things right with you,
but no, you all have been here

Bohemian,

You've been using him all these
years

things.

Shardae.
Go ahead, run. Run after
her. You know you want to
I should have just stayed away
from you, but you know what?
You ain't nothing but a little
boy

That's all
Protective custody?

See when you reach God

Flop?
- You think cause I'm famous.
That shit don't affect me.
Money don't make dealing with
shit easy.
See y'all think y'all know
everything
in the blogs, but y'all
don't know a goddamn thing.
- If you can't take the heat
and get out the kitchen.
There's millions of people
that a trade with you.
Don't act like you ain't blessed
my nigga.
- I'm sick of this nigga.
Oh Whoa, Whoa, Whoa, Whoa.

people think
they can run up on us.
Yo school this nigga.
- You want me to go?
And just to be very clear,
I am blessed beyond measure.
But see what y'all in the
media don't understand is
that when you put

people, you do all type.
- You piss on em, treat them
like shit and take their money.
Huh?
Come on dog.
- Braxton baby Braxton
baby listen I'm sorry
I had to dip off real quick.
Yeah, but listen

Nigga don't touch me.

You scary!
- Oh boy.
- That's okay.
Let it out.
We know he did you wrong.
- I just tried to stand
up for him, you know
be everything that he needed.
But I guess that just wasn't
enough.
I was the one taking all the Ls,
you know
I was the one picking up the
pieces and rearranging them
you know, making sure that
he looked good at all times
but I guess for somebody
like William Clay Gregory
the third, that just wasn't
important.
You know, but,
I mean,
At the end of the day
the money is what talks right?
- Wow.
So did you know that
he was cheating on you
with Jordan Holmes?
- You know, Jay, I didn't
want to believe it,
but me being me
I believed him when he said
that it wasn't recent, you know
I didn't have any reason not
to, so I took his word for it
and I kept it moving.
You know, that's what black
women do.
- Sounds like you were
something special. A real rider.
I mean, that's how I was raised,
you know, with honesty and
integrity.
The only good thing that
came out of this situation
is that Rodney and I was
able to start our own label
and we were able an sign
amazing artist Staci G.
You know, I got an awesome
partner, an awesome artist
out of an unfortunate
and horrible situation.
- I know that's right.
Now what we really want to know
is,
did you get the bag from his
lying ass?
- Let's just say I am not
the unfortunate one okay?
- Well let me be the first
to say congratulations
on your new label and project.
Thank you so much.
Tell us some more about
what you got going on.
- My pleasure Jay.
So our label is No Mercy Records
and the first artist to
be released is Staci G
and her first single is titled
"Should've Known", which is
actually my story with Will,
you know, somehow Staci
was there to witness some
of the horrible things that he
and I went through and her
being such an amazing artist.
She was able to capture some
of that raw pain and emotion
that I had gone through and
was able to put into the song.
- Oh so y'all like
Jermaine Dupri and Usher
with the Confessions.
- I mean, I hadn't thought
about it, but you can say that.
- All right, now we definitely
have a special treat
for our listeners.
First let's get into this
new Staci G song and maybe
after the commercial break,
we can get into some more tea
about Will Clay and his
retirement announcement.
- Maybe.
- It's Rod talk to me.
Rod
- Bro tell me what I just saw
in the interview ain't true bro.
Please tell me
you ain't steal my artist and
started a label with Kiaira.
- Whoa bro, what's up man.
It's been a minute how you
doing?
- A minute?

- Bro calm down man its just
busines. It's just business.
- nigga you stole my artist.
Are you serious you're are
supposed to be my manager.
Nigga you supposed to be my
brother.
- Listen Will once the label
offered you the new deal.
And you turn it down.
Idiot. What was I supposed to
do?
- Keep my career in your hands.
Fight for me dog.
You ain't never heard of that?
- You were supposed to fight for
me.
- Will listen the only
time that I throw my hands
up is where the money is.
And right now the money is with
Ki.
- Y'all some money hungry, blood
sucking, energy sucking hoes
Look, I'm good. Look big
dog, bro, bro, get your money

accounts and notice a lot
of inconsistencies and your
taxes haven't been paid either.
I signed a check every month.
Kiaira and Rodney supposed
to be paying that.
Come on man, it's just,
you've got this wrong.
You need to talk to Kiaira and
Rodney.
I see the checks have been
cashed
but they were made
out to a company called I.R.S.
Looks like a shell company.
Since you didn't make
arrangements
and you haven't returned
my calls for a month,
the feds are going to be
at your home tomorrow

have ran up on Big Red.
When Rodney looked up, he
looked like he saw a ghost.
- Man if somebody stole my
money, slept with my girl
and then gave certain media
members dirt.
- All your dirt.
- And I would've beat that ass
too.
And you can tell what was
emotional from the rip
- Hold on did you just give
an exclusive without giving
an exclusive.
And you gloss over that
little thing a little bit
Sounds like you just gave up
your source
- It should be public knowledge
by now.
I mean, at least every news
outlet.
Know that you, all you have
to do is give your boy Rodney
a bag for some dirt on the Clay
camp.

Like those are the type
of friends that you need.
The ones that's gonna ride
or die for you when people do
you wrong.
- True you know what?
I've been a little harsh.

for this small thing.
Do you think I should give him a
pass?
- Please give this man a
pass he been through enough.

I knew you'd be back here
eventually.
- Can't lie to you. I've
been running from this place
for a long time man just
out fear of what you and mom
was going to think about me.
- So that's why you been
sending me to voicemail.
Well, hey I didn't bring
you back here to scold you
or beat you down even more than
you've
been doing in the news.
I really just wanted to
look at you in the eyes to see
if you
learned something and you're
ready for real change now.
- I am.
Man, I hurt a lot of people
I've burned and I've been
burned by those I love
but, I'm ready I think I'm
ready to make that change.
- You think or you know?
- I know.
- Good, whatever you've done in
the past
you need to leave it there.
All right.
You taking responsibility for
your actions
but you can't hold on to that,
that guilt
and shame that you're feeling.
Because it'll eat you up inside
and it'll destroy everything you
touch.
You gained the world and
now you've experienced
what it's like to lose your
soul.
It's time to let Jesus.
restore it for you, rebuild it.
We didn't pull all that word
unto you
when you were growing up just
for you not to have it available
to you when you need it the
most.
- Dad man you don't even know
how relieved that makes me feel.
I've been ashamed of myself,
people pleasing and
protecting a false image
I thought because I wasn't from
a bad area
or didn't have bad parents
that I had to make this image.
Just to make people like me.
- Listen son, you need
to take pride in the fact
that you didn't do that and
know that we're behind you
no matter what, even when
you act like a heathen.
- Pops I love you, man.
- Yeah I love you too Will.
- I love you too.
- Listen to me.
- Don't play with that girl's
feelings
she really loves you.
- Yeah I knew that other girl
was no

Hey baby?
- All right You know what?
It's time to go to bed
and let these two young
people have some time
to their themselves.
- Yes it's our bedtime so
Aw
Y'all be good.
- Love you mom.
- Love you too!
All right, mom.

Pops love you, man
Enjoy each other, but not too
much.

You know, I might just
want to spend some time
with my friends and family.
And some special people
what I do know is

in the business, it's gonna
include ownership this time.
I'm talking only my own
label, owning my own masters
and getting all my publishing.
Ain't trying to have.
Y'all coming to fight for me
again.

Let me manage you.

take you serious, Kamal.

Do you hear yourself?
Bro stop playing with me
- I know the last time you were
here.
We got into a little tiff, but
I know you're a changed man.
And I'm so excited that you're
here
today to perform your new song.
I was really curious what the
inspiration was for this one.
- I would say the inspiration
for this song was the woman who
made it,
her standard that I love me
right
So that I can in turn love you,
right.
Shardae my wife I love you.
And this song I do tonight
is dedicated to you.
- He's no stranger to the stage
and he's arisen from the
ashes of brand new person.

new single, Love You Right.
