Jayda Cheaves’ Son Gives His Mom Advice To Shake Up Her Employees
The Shade Room’s version of the clip starts with Cheaves telling a viewer to contact her brand so they can correct an order mishap.
“They so slow up at that warehouse y’all. We gon have a meeting this week,” the Waydamin founder said, adding that one of her Snapchat followers also had an order issue.
After admitting they “have a problem,” Jayda’s following sentence was disrupted by Loyal’s voice off-camera. And the five-year-old came READY to spill on what’s been going down behind the scenes.
“Sometimes I feel they just be watching their phones, cause I be seeing the moves that people be doing,” Loyal told his mom. She agreed, saying, “I feel like that too.”
Loyal added that he watches “every single move” Jayda’s Waydamin warehouse employees do. His mother again agreed that her employees “be on their phones.” While Lil Baby’s mini-me said “watching” is “the only reason [he] comes here.”
At that point, Jayda started cracking up, and Mr. Armani kept on telling, telling, telling, chile!
“Like I need to tell my mom, if you the boss I’m gonna be the boss that see things,” Loyal shared.
The Waydamin owner then asked her five-year-old if she should fire her entire staff or just hold a meeting. Still off-camera, he seemingly paused to think, then responded:
“I just think you should have a meeting with them and then just let them think you gon’ fire them and then yeah…”

Jayda Cheaves Addresses The Critics As Social Media Buzzes About Loyal Armani’s Work Advice
Then, Jayda Cheaves put her mama cap on for a moment and corrected Loyal’s slang use, namely the word “yie.” For context, Loyal has gained an adorable rep for swapping his Ls with Ys in words, and that is how the word “yie” came about from the word “lie.”
Cheaves admitted that her only child tries to “talk like” her, but he “can’t.” He shot back, “I say yie, you don’t say yie.” The five-year-old later agreed to stop saying it, and Jayda said she would, too.
Watch their interaction below and keep scrolling for reactions to the viral video from the Roommates.
@livebitez Jayda Cheaves tells her son to stop mimicking her.
On Instagram, roomie @heyy-its-tiffany wrote, “He might tell a story, but he’ll never tell a yie.”
@yassminnc added, “Imagine your boss coming in and saying why my baby say y’all be on your phones all day.”
@cuttheory101_hs spoke on folks critiquing how Loyal speaks. She wrote, “Kids are sponges … a child who just loves his mommy and picking up on things that she does because he likes it. The same way a little girl could be a daddy’s girl and pick up things from her father. You can live with both parents and this could still happen. Kids mimic their parents especially when they have a close bond. She corrected him and will probably continue to correct him until he stops.”
Jayda Cheaves also addressed Loyal’s mannerisms and language use during the livestream. She clarified that her son doesn’t only spend time around women.
“My son is with his dad very often,” Jayda said. “And if he’s not with his dad, he’s with my mom, his grandmother, who has nothing but sons. He has a lot of men in his life, so please. Like you keep commenting that for what? Grow out of what? …He’s fine.”
See what she said about the “weird, evil things” people comment about happy, well-taken care of kids. .

Meanwhile, Louisiana rapper Tokyo Vanity stood with Mr. Armani claiming the word “yie” as his own. She wrote, “@jaydacheaves first of all miss girl you know y’all took yie from loyal Don’t irritate me and him. yikeeeee what sis.”
