The trailer for season two showed some tense moments between Moss and Jermaine Dupri, but Shad was quick to clear the air by saying he and JD are in a good place.

“We’re definitely close, we’re definitely close. Of course, this was at a time when things weren’t going the way I wanted them to go and I was just venting my frustrations to Jermaine. We’ll always be tight. We speak every single day and he’s more than a mentor, more like a father to me,” explained Shad.

Last season, WE saw Shad and his father trying to work through their issues to try to mend their relationship, and he says this season takes it a step further.

“This season I got rid of all of the dark stuff, and now I’m back focused trying to put the music out and it’s a lot of drama,” he hinted.

Shad, also known as Bow Wow, is no stranger to the stage since he’s spent most of his life in the spotlight as a rapper. He has some advice for those wanting to get into the industry.

“Just stay focused, set a goal and go for it. Try your best to surround yourself with people who believe in you, people who have a lot of love and positivity. That’s the key is to have a good team. Don’t feed into the peer pressure of the business, there is a dark side to the business,” Shad explained.

He also revealed that his retirement from the industry has been put on hold, he’s back with new music! He told Good Day LA that Diddy is on his first single!

See you in 2018 ... #1stsingle #greenlight6 #WOAH #cirocboyz
