Royce Keys has expanded the lineup of 946 in the last several weeks and he recently spoke about the addition of Jaida Parker & Carmelo Hayes. Parker and Hayes joined the faction on the September 28th and October 12th episode of WWE Raw, and have since been joined by Cruz Montana who joined on this week’s show.

Keys spoke with Hot 97 ahead of Monday’s Raw and spoke about the addition of Parker and Hayes. You can see the highlights below:

On How Parker’s Addition Shifted the Group’s Dynamic:

“It shifted good, man. She brings attention. You see her, she brings attention. You look at her, she brings all the attention. So, it’s just one of them — you look at it like, I love New Jack City, right? And there was a female they had in their crew. There you go.

“So that that’s what she is to us. She’ll look at you and tell you tell you, ‘Rock-a-bye, baby and off with your head.”

On Adding Hayes To the Faction:

“It’s one of those things like — especially adding Carmelo. Nobody knew he was coming. Me and Carmelo go back way before this. So, it’s one of them things, man. You look at people who’s been struggling, who will ride with you. Like I said, I’ll pick loyalty over family any day.”
