Though there’s no confirmation from Reid, fans are saying that he will be heading to L.A. where his label Transparent Arts is based. The company, which handles artists including Far East Movement, Tiffany Young and Dumbfounded, welcomed Reid in October of 2020.

Reid, who appears to have been taking a hiatus from acting, has been focusing on his own record label Careless, where he works with his ex-girlfriend, actress Nadine Lustre. Lustre’s songs “Wait For Me,” “Glow” and “Ivory” were produced by the said label. JB
