What up doe!? It’s a full-on roast-session this week on We Playin’ Spades because one of the greatest to ever do it joins Nick and Courtney in the backyard. Standup, actor, writer and master roaster Comedian CP pulls up to the turquoise table and he isn’t holding back. CP dives into his harshest hater, why who you cheat with matters, and the times roasting went wrong. Nick’s outfit also takes a beating, but CP doesn’t only dish ‘em out, he gets some heat from our hosts for everything from collecting Pokémon cards and playing with puppets, to his past jitting days. There’s also some quantum physics breaking our brains. The Detroit smack-taking is strong in this one, but is it enough to beat Nick and Courtney. Hit play, sit back and talk to your future self about this episode. It’s a good one!

This week on We Playin’ Spades, Nick Cannon and Courtney Bee welcome New Orleans legend in the making Reginae Carter to the turquoise table. The young actress and up-and-coming mogul talks about growing up Carter and getting out from under the shadow of her very famous father to make a name of her own. Reginae dishes on dating when your dad is Lil Wayne, why everyone is suddenly “Unc,” and the criteria for going out with a “regular dude.” Plus, she presses Nick on what exactly it is about commitment that he finds so unappealing. But will all this talk affect her Spades skills? Hit play and find out. It’s BTA all day!

Wassam Baby! This week on We Playin’ Spades, Nick Cannon and Courtney Bee welcome New Orleans icons Juvenile and Mannie Fresh to the backyard. The Cash Money duo pull up with that undeniable bounce—reminiscing on the days of cookin’ up platinum in the studio, making the world say “Ha,” and changing the sound of the South forever. Juvenile reminds us why Back That Azz Up is still the cookout anthem of all cookout anthems, while Mannie breaks down the art of “Mannie-festing”—turning beats, hustle, and vision into a legacy stamped in hip-hop history. But when it’s time to shuffle up, will their bond and bounce keep them in sync—or will one of ‘em have to back that hand up?

This week on We Playin’ Spades, Nick Cannon and Courtney Bee welcome social media superstar Ari Fletcher and celebrity stylist Arrogant Tae to the backyard. Friends since high school back in Chicago, Ari and Tae bring that Windy City slick talk, as they swap stories about loyalty, hustle and the price of staying real on the internet, when everyone has something to say. Tae reminds everyone why he’s crowned the king of 50-inch bussdowns, while Ari shares the highs and lows of living out loud online (hello: fake friends and Wal-Mart stalkers). But can their bond and bravado hold up when the stakes get high—or will the table end up split down the middle like a bad part?

This week on We Playin’ Spades, Nick Cannon and Courtney Bee welcome their Wild N’ Out colleague and 85 South star Karlous Miller to the backyard. The hilariously ornery standup and actor doesn’t hold back – everything from sharing the stage with unfunny people, not lending money to friends, and jumping into relationships when the time ain’t right. Karlous and his partner, comedian Chris “Sett It Off” Jones, also spit some southern wisdom and get a little too country with the hog talk. But will that knowledge translate into a victory? Get the witch pot ready! It’s time to play spades!

It’s a spicy one on We Playin’ Spades this week, because we’ve got breakout stars of Love Island USA, Nic Vansteenberghe and Taylor Williams in the backyard! Our hosts Nick Cannon and Courtney Bee drill the new besties on island beefs, spinning the block on old flames, and life after reality TV. Nick gives the Island boys some veteran wisdom on dealing with overnight fame, and we’re introduced to Nic’s alter ego, Marcel. And of course, there’s Olandria. But once all is said and done, how will they measure up to Nick and Courtney when it comes to these Spades in the Backyard Boogie? You’re gonna have to watch. It ain’t Fiji, but it is all love!

Pull out the fancy lawn chairs because we’ve got real music royalty blessing the backyard this week on We Playin’ Spades! R&B legends Charlie Wilson and El DeBarge join Nick Cannon and Courtney Bee to dive deep into their impressive careers and catalogs, all with a little bit of falsetto along the way. Charlie spills the tea about friendly rivalries with Earth, Wind & Fire, helping write “Computer Love,” and the effect all the fringes on those Gap Band outfits had on the ladies. El DeBarge talks hidden writing credits, accidental standing ovations, and dishes on his secret to staying young. Plus, they both get into touring back in the day – sort of. Oh yeah, they eventually play some Spades, too. And they’ve got decades of experience and trash talk to back it up. Get ready to groove. This is one for the books. You’ll for sure like it!

Catch Charlie Wilson and El DeBarge on Uncle Charlie’s R&B Cookout Tour along with K-Ci and Babyface.

Check out Charlie's new single “Keep Me in Love” on all platforms.

It’s a family affair this week on We Playin’ Spades, because Atlanta’s own O.G. YouTubers Emmanuel and Phillip Hudson hit the Backyard Boogie to show off their homegrown spades skills in front of Nick Cannon and Courtney Bee. The hilarious brothers sit down at the turquoise table to break down some of their first viral hits, that one time they faked their own deaths, and explain what had happened when they bought those colored wigs at Party City. They drop some serious spades history, tell us what it takes to be a real actor, and finally answer the day-old question, “What movie genre is The Color Purple”? Gather your brothers and sisters around the YouTubes, because it’s gonna get wild.
