If there’s one thing you’ve learned watching Empire, it’s that you never know what flagrantly evil and deceptive movie Lucious Lyon is going to pull next. Fresh out the bing, the Head Lyon In Charge put all his track on display in last night’s episode, titled “Fires Of Heaven.”
Miami Nights
Of course out of all the rappers in the world, Pitbull is who hits the stage to celebrate Lucious’ release from the slammer. We think there’ll be more of him this season.
Timbo The King
Cookie crashed Pitbull’s set, and Lucious’ fete, and Hakeem performed, along with special guest Timbaland. You gotta admit, it was lit.
Also, Cookie’s outfit…
How You Get A Record Deal?
Lucious wanted to make good on signing Frank Gathers’ daughter Freda to a deal. However, the Brownsville rapper and her struggle entourage didn’t believe Jamal was trying to ink her thanks to a contract with all those big words. This is highly accurate when it comes to the rap game, unfortunately.

Really? They should have never gave y’all the Internet.

G-Daddy Lucious
Andre is still trying to get back in Lucious’ good gracious. Going against his better judgement, he figured mentioning Lucious was going to be a grandfather would be his in. Nope!

Mama I Made It
Part of the reason Lucious keeps curving Andre is because he is bipolar, like his mother; Kelly Rowland as seen in flashbacks. Apparently, Lucious was Dominican when he was a child.
Shots Fired
Lucious went to the hood to find Freda, and witnessed her dropping some bars in a battle before her opponent got personal and she decided break out her ratchet (that would be a gun). Of course, squeaky voiced Lucious made his pitch.
Benedict Becky
Mirage A Trois got ready in time for Sway’s show. But then Lucious dropped the bombshell that he brought the satellite radio station, and that he signed Valentina aka Becky G that morning to Empire Records. The struggle is real.
