After attempting a money shakedown that failed, Mr. Colmes threatened legal action against August.

However, August seemed to be in a difficult situation, reportedly needing help due to illness. Despite these challenges, August shared that he is currently focused on working on a new single titled “All Over Me” and getting back into the music scene.

Questions have arisen about why Brasher Gray’s career trajectory did not reach the expected heights following his appearance on Empire. Speculation suggests that powerful forces may have been involved in his departure from the entertainment industry.

Gray’s journey began in 2013 as a rapper in Philadelphia, performing at various music festivals and opening for renowned artists like Fabolous and 2 Chainz. His breakthrough came in 2015 when he landed the role of Hakeem Lyon on the Fox TV series Empire, alongside stars like Taraji P. Henson and Terrence Howard. This role led to a record deal with Columbia Records, and Gray was often compared to a young Will Smith, with whom he had developed a close relationship.

However, rumors emerged about Gray’s abrupt exit from the spotlight, with suggestions that his refusal to participate in uncomfortable situations led to his blacklisting in the industry. Reports surfaced alleging that Gray’s mental health declined after he was manipulated by influential figures, including Will and Jada Pinkett Smith, and Diddy. The Smiths, particularly Jada, faced backlash following revelations about her relationship with R&B singer August Alsina. Additionally, Jaguar Wright claimed that the Smiths engaged in disturbing behavior in their home, further fueling speculation about their influence over young artists like Gray.

Gray’s troubles escalated when he faced legal issues, including a domestic violence incident that resulted in his arrest and subsequent sentencing. Reports also linked Diddy to allegations of sexual assault, with several individuals, including Cassie, accusing him of abuse of power and intimidation. Cassie’s lawsuit against Diddy shed light on the toxic culture within the entertainment industry, prompting calls for other victims, including Gray, to come forward and expose the truth.

Despite efforts to revive his career, Gray’s prospects remain uncertain, with many questioning whether he will have the courage to confront the powerful celebrities allegedly involved in his downfall. Fans and supporters hope that Gray and others will find the strength to speak out against exploitation and hold accountable those responsible for their suffering.
