I actually thought it was the coolest thing. At least it mimicked a real audience for Jamal to get used to.
It was a good thing he tried it because it helped to prove that something else was triggering his PTSD.

Great tool. I wonder if that's what they use in some PTSD treatment sessions.

It reminded me of bad 90s sci-fi television which completely overestimated the VR thing. I guess it's making its come back to television 20 years later...

That's what it reminded me of which is why is cliche'

Lol it was pretty silly. It was quite the reach. I thought this dude was just a rehab sponsor. Didn't know he had access to such technology. Especially when he added images of Freda into the mix. Is it me or is the Jamal PTSD thing one of the longest storylines they've committed to? Seems like it should be over by now.

...And Jamal being an independent artist may not be so bad. He's always writing some song about his Daddy being horrible, maybe he should sign under another label then?

Yeah they are stretching it because they have nothing else for him . Love triangles and mental breakdowns is all he's good for.
And going indie would be the best choice he's made the entire show. It's time someone broke free of Lucious !

That was also a bit silly to imply that he'd have to go independent. Sorry, but as far as this show goes, his first album was really successful and nominated for awards - so why would he not just be snatched up by another major label? It's not like Empire Records is the only label in town.

Now, if Lucious threatened to keep him in his contract without releasing anything that would be believable because that's happened to several artists before like JoJo.

Yeah, I got the same cheesy vibes
