LL COOL J, Lena Waithe, Teddy Swims & Mo Gilligan on Fame and Evolving as Creatives | The Shop S7

[@exerjefferson2542]

The advice from LL to Lena was priceless, please don't end The Chi anytime soon, it can go on like the soaps and I will continue to watch it.

[@iamclifrich]

I love that LL is keeping it 100% Authentic and honest and being real. In a world full of people who are afraid to give there honest opinion with out fear, to watch a successful, confident, humble man who is sure about who he is as a human being is a breath of fresh air. I love this episode.

I'm so happy to see Mo ❤. As a British, The Shop is my little Black US secret so I'm both surprised and proud of our Mo G 😊. His Agent must be Top Drawer.

[@kharyking768]

What part of uk you from. Ive been to Nottingham a few times

[@Delboy0]

Every time I see Mo I’m kinda proud and then feel depressed at the thought of the hundreds of great black British comedians who didn’t get opportunities he had because they were not adopted by the white comedy establishment.

[@l.apastore4208]

*as a Briton/Brit. I agree tho

[@jemila7991]

Trent Williams’s story is amazing. So glad he’s here to tell it. God bless him. 🙏

[@PokeRobinson]

He said “how old was Picasso when he did his best work?” LL’s words are deep. I felt that shit. And everything he said after that. He’s GOAT.

[@7thswordsmenofthemist]

Goat of wut?? Lol

[@Becks_2121]

Love seeing Mo amongst some greats and one of the hip hop gods, well deserved. Team Mo all day, salute the shop!!! United we stand…….🇯🇲🇯🇲🇯🇲🇯🇲🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧✊🏽✊🏽✊🏽

[@crespoarts]

LL really got me wanting to run through a wall. I can do anything!

[@shamarjones8178]

[@KD_SWAGGER]

Salute to LL Cool J. Definitely an icon in hip hop. He always has some helpful advice in his interviews.

[@1212CSmith]

Thank you, Mr. Williams, for sharing your incredible story. I hope men, especially Black, pay close heed. Do regular check-ups & exams, and get second and third opinions. Do not put your health and wellness on the back burner.

[@michaelwhite3595]

Trent story is so ground breaking I’m glad he’s here to tell and he’s able to still do what he loves

[@Cromartie22]

LL is right, the CHI has been dope. So much room to continue and grow. Shouldn’t feel like it’s been on too long yet. All love either way

[@nateladson4854]

LL was dropping jewels!!!

[@patriciafuselier3071]

I am really enjoying this show. Y'all speaking from the heart and being real. LL Cool J, you are so encouraging and inspiring which is a blessing to see. Lena you are a great writer and your films are amazing keep up the good work. Y'all just keep doing well. We need y'all.

[@mauricemegginson3625]

LL is a true icon bruh and lena is a beast i love ths Chi one my favorites

[@ReResAllsorts]

LL talking about the flute was killing Mo! 🤣🤣🤣

[@dariuslovhalll5606]

I stand with LL. " whAts your favorite song???" Lol

[@ared5224]

A free style he did In the 80s called fine line

[@dariuslovhalll5606]

@@ared5224 lol. I was talking about lena's favorite song off Andre 3000 flute album

[@moehsuraz]

LL is Hilarious… “the one with the flute” 🤣

[@Kigondu]

Lena is brilliant. A needed voice and super sharp. LL's an OG (among the greats no doubt. Love his music) - but his path / opinion is different and that's.. his. Trust your gut / skill with the choices Lena (The Chi and beyond, trust the hunch about the Chi ending. Smart.). And thank you for Queen and Slim! Huge fan of Andre 3k too and he can play as many flutes as he wants man! He doesn't need to be the greatest flute player ever, his efforts bring meaning and joy (no matter to how many) ..and that's good enough.

[@foodbythewordmedia]

This is a true LL master class!!! 👏🏿👏🏿👏🏿

[@LegacyLondon]

Wooow, salute to Moe on this platform. Such a cool look for him, the UK

[@carlosjackson9763]

LL made this episode!!! This is a real barbershop style convo!

[@oaktree1626]

If it was my barbershop there'd be more yelling and almost fights.

[@jerzecandy]

All the seasons of The Shop are a learning experience. What the guests bring to the table there’s always add to my tool belt at 65. The inspirational and creative moments that have me sharing with my adult children and on social media

[@markpurdy-silva4092]

The freestyle he gave was legendary… Jesus

[@ChecktheScreen]

LL Cool J is inspiring. Good to see positive growth in everyone

[@damayoclinic]

Spit That, LL Cool J!

[@swagganificient]

Mo is lost as they were discussing American football 😂😂😂🏈🏉 Cuz he knows the English Football the real one⚽⚽⚽

[@Me-px7js]

😂. I missed that part. . Let me watch again to see where he said it.

[@eyewatch2see77]

Mo is not lost ... he knows the NFL is also "called" football

[@coolbreez5972]

“Not the flute B” 😂😂😂 LL funny as hell

[@KuaraHarrod]

Hi from Ontario Canada, I love this show we learn from the show

[@jorgerivera9405]

What a amazing and funny episode it was a little bit of everything just like a actual barbershop. The Trent cancer story got me, just hearing and seeing the reaction of the nurse getting ready to tier up after getting the news to not to focus on football and focus on spending time with ur daughter's and making sure all your affairs are good because you don't have alot of time left got emotional 🥺But Gob Bless you that u are doing good now.

[@JustinPayne-g4z]

Damn..had no idea about Trent smh crazy bruh God bless him

[@dochongo]

Let 3k do what we wants. He solidified himself in the rap game already (Top 1 personally). GOAT 👑

[@7thswordsmenofthemist]

[@0427rjc]

YOU ARE THE MAN LL! You are!

[@mosttriumphantvideos]

Here from today’s breakfast club interview reference. Thanks for doing this long form content.

[@myevanlution]

I love Teddy Swims! I need another interview to get more of a backstory.

[@antwonblakemore1538]

I'm old school and I still don't think LL gets his props. At one time LL was the biggest rapper out. He actually had the rap game in a choke hold. He was the epitome of The GOAT 🐐

[@cjb5000]

Trent sounds like a good dude, glad he ended up making it through!

[@wfgdaniel]

Snoop did a GOSPEL Album!!!

[@sinde20]

The show is so Sensational 😊

[@samueldchubb7617]

So brave of Trent to tell his story ❤️❤️

[@DarkKnightNode]

Very thoughtful as per usual ❤😊.

[@ohjoy1976]

Any Given Sunday is one of my favs of all time!

[@WorldOfLightMedia]

That any given sunday perspective is very true

[@oskrnavljenicrv]

LL taught me more then my father, he is def father figure, the only one G.O.A.T. !

[@SignkidTV]

This is one of my favourite channels. Can you put the subtitle in English for deaf and hard-of-hearing people?

[@loiscraig9848]

Love it don't put a period in place of a comma, yes LL. Clearly a statement of forward moving n elevation.

[@nicoleluke8672]

[@shamarjones8178]

Trent Williams 🙏🏽🗣️

[@clementmckenzie7041]

i GOT A QUESTION, How come whenever I watch these kinds of shows, and black female, directors, producers, writers, and creatives on the show at some point they mention that they want in their work to do something uplifting for black males. But I never hear black males in their position ever mention that they want to do something uplifting for black females in THEIR work? Please enlighten me.

[@slybady]

The Bristol Hotel still jam!! 🔥🔥🔥🔥 fire emojis 😂😂😂😂

[@mrsandura78]

What’s your favorite song??🤣😂👏🏾 funniest shit EVER!!!!!!

[@ChefBlueMagic]

Andre 3000 with the flute is MJ with Baseball lol

[@exstacy069]

LL kept it real we wanted Bars from Andre 3000

[@Proks7]

I just wanna find the instrumental that’s the opening song

[@eyewatch2see77]

speaking of THEME songs at the opening of THE SHOP .. *(they really do feature the BEST opening songs)* >there was 1 season that featured a Drake song .. "and" >there was 1 season that featured a Kendrick Lamar song .. (that's WHY we're NOT fond of their tit-for-tat battle)

[@VeAyzfines]

Yo Andre's album was tough.... he's an artist. It's art.

[@7thswordsmenofthemist]

He Def an artist and a legend...but that album was NOT tough Lol

[@misslucky5474]

LL said his last album was not impactful. He was correct; the sales weren't really there; however, I highly enjoy listening to that album TODAY!

[@DeepSound_Music]

Come on LL let 3 stacks do his thing! The album is great regardless of what you think or not. TBH 3 Stacks can say the same thing about you... Not the acting!

[@eyewatch2see77]

AGREED!!

[@cedunstoppable]

Cool J is hilarious

[@kingarthur6173]

[@tix941]

Don't put a period where there's a comma is deep

[@jihadel-amin]

Facts! And he is the person in room who has done it.
