The latest addition to Ray J’s Instagram has feted anticipation for the Cam Newton interview and teased a bit about some upcoming new music-floating both shores of Ray J’s famous all-encompassing persona.

Rather than a well-calculated promotional clip, the interview creates confusion between the time spent with family and commercializing. At one point Ray J is simply throwing the ball around with his kids, and then abruptly switches gears full force to the promotion of his new single “One Wish” with Jacquees, with Ray J saying they should already be changing the artwork for the track that’s already hit all the DSPs. The main event, however, will be his upcoming sit-down with former NFL MVP Cam Newton.
Repeatedly calling it “crazy,” Ray J alludes to the interview being a weighty one, filled with unfiltered revelations. “‘I’m gonna get into a lot of trouble for this interview’ ,” he chuckled, “But who gives a f—? F— it.” In jest, he continues talking about wearing a “noonsuit” (likely a play on Newton’s name) to court if his legit stuff actually hits. Ray J insists this three-hour interview is about to drop soon and is not to be missed.
The clip further unfurls Ray J fathering his best by soothing a sick little guy, making bargains on movie choices (“Despicable Me” wins), and teasingly scolding the kids for stealing hats. “Slap being a dad,” he says, “It doesn’t get any better than this.” In extreme contrast to his interview promos, this is some real uplifting flight away from Earth for Mr.
Fans were split in the comments-they’d gotten hyped for the Newton interview (“Cam don’t hold back, this gonna be wild”) while others were more into the domestic craziness (“Bro really out here parenting on live”). Another user stated, “Ray J promoting an interview while playing nurse is peak multitasking.”
No matter what fireworks the Cam Newton discussion can bring forth, Ray J showcases his antics of mixing family life with music drops and media bombshells all in one stream. And judging from his teasers, this might well be the runaway viral moment of the week.
