Social media and culture commentator Justin Laboy has become a certified source on all things Kanye West since his role in the viral moment between Ye and Kevin Durant sparked the DONDA album release wildfire within the Hip Hop space.

Justin Laboy recently connected with a host of stars, including BIA, O.T. Genasis, Odell Beckham Jr. and more for the season finale of his REVOLT TV hit Respectfully Justin talk show.

Now, with his hit REVOLT summer talk show Respectfully Justin show entering the off-season, Justin Laboy is transitioning to his new on-screen life as the host of the Facebook Dating series Summer of Love.

In the first episode of Summer of Love, Justin taps in with his co-hosts, TikTok comedy creator Leenda Dong and rising Pop star Alaina Castillo to discuss their astrological signs, Castillo’s experience with cheating and more even spicier relationship topics.

At one point in the video, Justin attempts to quiet background music, which appears to be coming from Kanye West, who was sound-checking for his recent DONDA album streaming event in Atlanta in the same room as Laboy — further confirming his credibility as a direct source to Ye during this album cycle.

The addition of Justin Laboy’s presence on Summer of Love highlights Facebook’s innovation within the dating space since 2018, and also serves as the perfect cherry to top off the rollout of their three new features, Match Anywhere, Audio Dates and Lucky Pick.
