No, let’s be honest, you just remember that Boobie and his wife Keyshia Cole are trying to land on network TV with a reality show. We know you.

The couple have filmed 6 episodes of the show, which is called “Family First.” The article says the network has yet to be determined, but episodes are going to start airing in February.
