New VH1 Reality Series to Feature Brandy & Ray J

SANTA MONICA: The sibling duo of Brandy and Ray J Norwood, along with parents Sonja and Willie, will be the focus of a new VH1 series that will explore the family business Rn’B Productions.

Run by mom and entertainment manager Sonja, Rn’B Productions features a roster of musical artists that includes Brandy, Ray J and their father Willie, who also serves as the company’s vocal coach. With Sonja ready to step down, Brandy and Ray J will have to fill her shoes and try to take the family business to the next level. The new series, Brandy and Ray J: A Family Business, premieres on VH1 on April 11 at 9 p.m.

"The Norwood’s are an incredibly talented family who truly love each other and I think our viewers will relate to that," said Jeff Olde, the executive VP of original programming and production at VH1. "They are also a family in business together in a rapidly evolving industry, which offers a whole other level of complexity in their relationships. I was struck not only by their bond and honesty with each other, but also by their ability to put family first amidst all the rewards and struggles their industry can provide."
