Keyshia Cole: The Way It Is
“Through it all, she's really just like you.”
Titled after Keyshia Cole's 2005 debut album, this reality docudrama peeks inside the life of the Grammy-nominated R&B songstress who has overcome a rough childhood to make her dreams come true. When she's not on the road, in the studio or making public appearances, Keyshia keeps busy re-establishing a relationship with her mom, Frankie -- who placed Keyshia in foster care while Frankie abused drugs and alcohol -- and supporting her sister Neffe and her four children. Through therapy sessions, heated discussions, and tough love, the women work to rid themselves of past demons and strengthen the ties that bind them.
