SS:Last season Your reality show “For the Love of RayJ” was #1 on the Network, did you see this happening or were you surprised?
I mean yeah.. I feel with a strong machine behind anything i do its gonna rate good and its gonna be good because i put out good product. It goes even back to the song me and you did “Sexy Can I”, like we had a small team of people with us and we branched out and channeled out to millions of people,and just imagine if we had a big machine behind that? But the concept behind the show, I got all the heads from VH1 into it,and they into my ideas so they are promoting it and they are pushing for it cause they believe in it, so im happy with that.
SS:How complicated is it now with the ladies situation?With thousands of women trying to get on your show “For The love of RayJ”?
Ahh man (laughs) it’s crazy,but it’s a crazy good thing cause you want people to be a part of what you do,and wanna take a walk down the wild side with you,or just be a part of your world that’s a blessing,thats what we work hard for and i appreciate all the love.
