Jayden POV

After the whole debacle at the hotel over the car I knew that there had to be something deeper to Nadya's comments. She wasn't the type to be into me buying her things so I sensed that something bigger was going on. I didn't want to bring something up to her while we were filming so I would have to wait until the cameras left. While I was a little anxious about the whole cameras there was work that had to be done. So after I talked with some for the kids and the family I has to head out to the studio. I brought little Zion and my two cousins Shamar and Keif. They were around Zion's age so I figured that they would have a lot going on.

So when we first reached the studio I wasn't sure what was going to happen but they had a play area set up for the kids and I went into one of the recording rooms. My home boys Duece, Amari and Will were there. I had the cameras with me and the producer wanted to speak to both of them.

Producer: so how long have you known Jayden

Deuce: we've been friends since the second grade. His mom and my mom used to work together at this diner like three blocks from my house

Amari: Jayden is actually my cousin and I lived with him until I was like 15. I moved away for a minute but were back now

Will: my brother Victor used to hang with his older brother Travis and we would always be in the background. So I started to hang with him and we've been instant friends

Producer: so we know that he was part of this group called KUDOS, did you guys ever imagine what level of success would come from that?

Amari: no we just wanted to have something to do. At least that's what it was for me in the beginning

Me: honestly I was just trying to stay off of the streets. I knew what it did to people and I couldn't handle all of that. Will was the one that got me into the whole music thing and he's the one that hears all my stuff first and comments

Will: yeah I was really into music and my brothers used to show me how to make beats. I knew that we could all make something of our life if we worked hard at it and it worked out

Producer: so what's it like on a daily basis between you guys. I know that this isn't all of KUDOS but what's life like when you guys all get together

Duece: it's pretty crazy like we go hard. It's like hanging out with your older brothers or living in a frat house. It's endless funny and games

Will: yeah and that can be a challenge because we hang so much and have such a good time that no work ever gets done. That doesn't please the fans nor the record labels

Me: it's great for me when we can all get together because I can get a lot of advice and it's just general fun but I see where will is coming from. We do get distracted and at times things can escalate and people are rubbed the wrong way

Producer: so have you guys all met the family?

Duece: yeah I know all about Nadya and her family. When I'm not on the road I'm crashing at his house and they are always over. I can honesty say that I'm s bit surprised but also really happy at how far they've come as a couple. Like no one ever imagined that they would be so good together

Amari: yeah Nadya is a cool chick but no everyone in the free has met her. I'm sure that once they do it would be cool. She's always jive and never brings any drama

Will: I haven't had the pleasure of formally netting her yet cause of scheduling but from what I've heard she's an amazing chick and Jayden really has a thing for her. He's my brother and I just want him to be happy
