No strangers to the spotlight, sometimes all eyes (and comments, and likes and retweets) are on them.  Through marital troubles, speaking up on social issues and social media backlash, the families always have each other’s backs.”

The show is  executive produced by Tip “T.I.” Harris for Grand Hustle, Tameka “Tiny” Harris for Pretty Hustle, and Brian Sher for Crossover Entertainment.  Christian Sarabia, Vinnie Kaufmann, Jennifer McGrogan and Jordan Browne executive produce for 51 Minds Entertainment.
