Black Ink Crew Chicago is back for another exciting season, and Ryan Henry and Don Brumfield have reassured us that we don’t have to worry about not being entertained.
In the season 7 premiere, which airs tonight beginning at 8/7c on VH1, the crew will usher in a new era of the Chicago franchise and will learn how to navigate their altered landscape, in hopes of reaching increased heights of success. With an expanded crew back in the home of 9MAG, the team, according to the network’s longline, is positioned and ready for the next level and will either adapt or falter under the pressure.

In these new string of episodes, Ryan is will the reset button, severing old ties and bringing new opportunities. After years of self-improvement, he is entertaining the idea of finding love again.
“It’s easy to have friends and family, but that becomes limited over time, and if you’re not loving yourself first, you can’t be the best you, you can be to all of them,” Henry tells Celeb Secrets reporter Ava Hill exclusively during a virtual junket.
As for Don, his journey of fame and fortune will continue this season, and he is put to the test to see if he can really balance his time-consuming business ventures and his family responsibilities.
“It’s definitely been a long journey, so there’s definitely been a lot of lessons to be learned. After all of these years, I think we’ve really stepped into a place where a lot of self-evaluation is kicking, a lot of self-reflection is starting to happen because it’s to the point where [Ryan’s] got teenagers, my kids are old enough to look us in the face and ask us certain questions, andyou’re now at the place where you’re like, ‘what am I representing, what am I bringing to the world, and exhibiting to the world, what am I showing, and what are my duties,'” Brumfield shares with Celeb Secrets. “So, we’re in this place where we’re just trying to become the best versions of ourselves, and that’s what I’ve learned while being on [Black Ink Crew Chiacgo]. To just let me become the best version of myself, and I think then I’ll be able to figure everything else out.”
