What happens when the funny, fierce Raymonte Cole and DeAndre Brown pull up? We already know—it’s about to be CHAOTIC, in the best way possible. They bond with Keke over friendship, fame, and finding their lane in the wild world of social media. They break down how they built a loyal following, get paid without selling out, and lock in major brand deals. Plus, they spill dating drama (including Keke’s!) and get real about going viral—and getting dragged (because Black Twitter always has time). Authenticity is the brand, and these two have had us gagged since day one.Get the Saks designer brands you love, delivered just like that.
