Ayana and Reemarkable continue their argument.
The episode begins as Ayana and Reemarkable are separated before their disagreement turns violent. However, both Ayana and Reemarkable insist they weren’t going to hit one another. Ayana says her going ballistic proves why she and Reemarkable will never talk.
As Ayana leaves, Buku runs over to hug Ayana. Meanwhile, Reemarkable hopes this doesn’t affect her standing with Deb’s EP.

Da Brat, next focuses on business, bringing up Deb’s EP. Da Brat wants to work with Diamond and Reemarkable. She wants Reemarkable to prove something to her after what happened between them last season. Speaking of Reemarkable, she stops by the studio to work. But first, she tells Da Brat about her back and forth with Ayana. Reemarkable’s worried that her back and forth with Ayana will anger Deb.
Jessica plots to get Da Brat and Jhonni to talk.
However, Da Brat seems to be okay with this. She’s more concerned about Reemarkable redeeming herself. Jhonni’s name comes up and Da Brat still doesn’t want to work with her. However, Jessica speaks up, saying she actually worked with Jhonni. Jessica feels that Jhonni is misunderstood and deserves another chance.
Da Brat explains how Jhonni damaged items and disrespected JD’s mom at the So So Def’s studio two seasons ago. Reemarkable says Jhonni is super talented and that incident was two years ago. So Jessica wants to set up a sit down with Da Brat and Jhonni even though Da Brat is adamant she’ll never work with Jhonni.
At Deb’s house, Tammy stops by for another chat with Deb. Deb brings up she heard Tammy doesn’t want to be a part of it.

Ayana brings up the altercation with Reemarkable, explaining her side of the story.
Tammy and Deb say Ayana could’ve accepted the apology and listened to Reemarkable. However, they do acknowledge how Reemarkable started the beef. But Ayana stands her ground.
Before Tammy leaves, she asks Deb to ask Da Brat if she wants to executive produce her project. When Tammy leaves, Ayana and Deb continue to talk about Reemarkable. Deb wants to still work with Reemarkable but Ayana still wants nothing to do with her, which disappoints Deb.
Bow Wow’s close to dropping his latest project.
The next day. Bow Wow and Pimpin are riding around the city, listening to tracks off the Bow’s new project. Pimpin asks what if one of the girls Bow’s mentioning reaches out. Bow Wow doesn’t care and posted a snippet. Although Da Brat warned him about doing this, Bow Wow got good feedback on social media. Bow’s manager Andy reached out about the song. Andy’s frustrated with Bow Wow running behind schedule on the project.
Meanwhile, Jhonni’s working on Deb’s EP with Buku and Reemarkable. BT stopped by the session and he feels everyone involved could have a gem of a project. However, Jhonni’s offended Bow Wow and Da Brat don’t wanna work with them.
After the session, BT brings up a text message from Jhonni venting about things Da Brat said about Jhonni. BT says he was having a conversation with Bow Wow about their meeting with Deb. Jhonni defends herself and her abilities and brings up how JD and his mom forgave her for her actions at their studio two seasons ago. BT says Bow Wow was scared off from working with them because of the drama.
Da Brat helps out Jessica.
Later on, Da Brat ad Jessica are meeting with their Realtor to view a property for Jessica’s new headquarters. Jessica currently works out of Memphis and New Orleans so consolidating everyone in one location could help. However, this location will need major renovations. But overall, Jessica appreciates Da Brat setting up this viewing but has a “trick up her sleeve” to convince Da Brat to talk to Jhonni.
Outside of the studio, BT calls Bow Wow, and Bow Wow still doesn’t want to work with them on Deb’s project. BT also tells Bow Wow about Jhonni’s frustrations with Da Brat but Bow Wow tells BT when Brat’s mind made up, it’s made up. He also says Jhonni understands why people feel the way they feel about her and Da Brat will never let it go.
Bow Wow could be a daddy, again.
Back at Bow Wow’s condo, Andy stops by for a chat, and Bow Wow’s apparently going through things. Bow Wow brings up how he met someone while out at Magic City. Apparently, they had a one-night stand. Recently, this woman reached out, telling Bow she might be pregnant and the baby could be his.
Bow Wow doesn’t want to run away from his responsibility but calls the woman a groupie. Andy says he’ll work to keep this situation as civil as possible. For Bow Wow, he feels the best way to deal with this is to keep quiet about it, especially on social media. Andy says Bow wow needs to take a DNA test and Bow Wow agrees. He doesn’t want to spend money on child support for a kid that isn’t his.
Andy advises Bow Wow to respect this woman as she could be the mother of her youngest child.
Jessica blindsided Da Brat with Jhonni Blaze.
Meanwhile, Jessica sets up the talk with Jhonni. Da Brat and Jessica are in a hotel penthouse as their home is under renovation and Jhonni’s stopping by. She waited until the last minute to spring it on Da Brat that Jhonni’s coming by which irritates Brat. Jessica wants the two of them to squash the beef they have. However, it doesn’t seem this will happen.
Jessica is adamant that Da Brat could help Jhonni get on the right track using her past experiences.
When Jhonni arrives, Jessica hopes Jhonni doesn’t act the way Da Brat and others described so this talk could be productive. Jhonni is in good spirits but Da Brat isn’t. It’s important to Jhonni to show off her growth and hope Da Brat doesn’t touch her. Da Brat, on the other hand, prays before sitting down.
When Jhonni talks, she brings up how she heard Da Brat doesn’t want to work with her. Jessica brings up that Da Brat feels this way because of Da Brat’s past behavior and redemption story. Da Brat says she did name the people she wants to work with to Deb and it’s her right to decide who she wants to work with. Jhonni tells Da Brat that she’s not required to make everyone see her growth.
The conversation seemingly doesn’t go anywhere when Jhonni gets emotional as Da Brat says she still deals with her past issues.
Things end as Jhonni begins to cry as Da Brat asks for security.
