About this episode

Coco Jones Dating Donovan Mitchell, SZA's BBL, Disney, Lil Wayne, & Special Performance By Teddy Swims

In this special episode of Club Shay Shay, Shannon Sharpe sits down with Coco Jones and Teddy Swims for an unforgettable conversation about music, life, and perseverance.

Teddy Swims, the Grammy-nominated powerhouse vocalist, reflects on his journey from a small-town Georgia kid to a global music sensation. He shares his excitement about becoming a father, how he started out as a cover artist in a band, and the importance of vulnerability in his career. Teddy also opens up about his admiration for Lil Wayne—he has Tha Carter III lyrics tattooed on his eyes—and reminisces about his first tattoo experience. He touches on his interracial relationship with singer Raiche Wright, how she helped him heal and seek therapy, and the influence of his grandfather, a minister. Before wrapping up, Teddy delivers a heartfelt performance of “Bad Dreams”
from I’ve Tried Everything But Therapy.

Coco Jones takes center stage as she details her rise from child star to one of R&B’s most respected artists. A Grammy and NAACP Image Award-winning singer, platinum-selling songwriter, and accomplished actress, Coco reflects on her early love for performing—balancing sports with the arts—and how her mother played a pivotal role in building her confidence and career. She shares her experience moving to L.A. alone at 17, learning to manage her finances, and navigating the pressures of the entertainment industry as a dark-skinned woman. She recalls working with Victoria Monét at 14, landing a starring role in Bel-Air as Hilary Banks, and sharing the screen with Tyler James Williams in Let It Shine. Coco Jones opens up about the struggles of being a young Black actress, from attending a predominantly white high school to losing Disney’s Next Big Thing.
