I Love Money Brandy and Ray J: A Family Business |
For the Love of Ray J is a dating show on VH1 featuring hip hop singer Ray J.[1][2][3] The program has a format similar to Flavor of Love, I Love New York, and Rock of Love.[4] In reference to the series, Ray J said:
“ | I've been in this game a long time... I've been with a lot of women but I'm ready to get out. I want to do this show to find a ride or die chick, a chick that makes me want to get out of the game.[5] | ” |
The show ended right before the spin-off Family Business which stars Ray and his sister Brandy. Ray J called the show "a learning experience."
“ | It was just a learning experience for me to just let it happen naturally, absolutely.[6] | ” |
