There were certain people that I just had to invite on the couch when I visited LA ,and MAJOR. was one of them. For those that know and get to witness MAJOR., they know that he is a great guy. Always hopeful every time I see him, it is no wonder they call him the Hope Dealer!

MAJOR. also dropped some gems so make sure that you catch them.
Ya'll we are back for Season 5 and I decided to bring KIPS to LA during BET week. I had the pleasure of talking to the amazing Miss Tina Knowles and she is just as sweet as can be.

I had the honor of interviewing Sarah Jakes Roberts while she was in town for her Power Moves book tour. Y'all it really felt like I was sitting down with a longtime girlfriend!

This week I have my friend, comedian and artist Emmanuel Hudson, on the couch. Not only is he funny, but he is serious about his faith walk and has one of the most relatable testimony's. It's not easy navigating this thing called fame and we get into some of the weird encounters that we've had!
Ya'll have no idea how excited I am to have Amber on the show. We met very early on in my career and so much has changed for the two of us. It's been beautiful to see each other's rise and growth in the industry over the years. She's a prime example that you can stand on business and do it with your friends at the same time.
This week we have my friend and entrepreneur Shabazz the OG on the couch. We go waaaay back, when I was pursuing my music career. He's been a great friend and a supporter of mine since day one. He's lived many lives and he wrote a book Flip Ya Life, sharing his life and many lessons that he learned along the way. Shabazz is a great example of "never judge a book by it's cover".
Y'all have been asking for my brother and costar Devale to join me on the couch and we finally made it happen! We talk about everything from football, business, faith and most importantly family. If you know anything about Devale, you know he loves his family and he's proud to be from Brooklyn. Grab your tissues because this one is a tear jerker.
This week I have the talented and fabulous Miss Lawrence on the couch. I knew we were going to kiki, but I had no idea that he was going to preach a good sermon. He reminds all of us to nurture the gifts that God gave us and to always be our authentic self.
Excited to kick off season 4 with my good sis, Khadeen Ellis. A lot of y'all see her on social media and know her as a wife and mom to 4 whole boys, but she is so much more than that and I felt it as important for you to see her heart and hear her voice.
This week I have none other than the incredibly funny, God fearing, sweet and gracious Pretty Vee on the couch. Ever since I met Vee she's been a bright light and I wanted the world to know that she's so much more than a comedian. Get to know the woman behind the skits. Sis is prophetic in the word!
