East Cleveland legend Ray Jr is a man of many talents. Over the years he’s made major moves in music, movies, and technology, and in 2024 he’ll continue to bring his expertise to a big screen near you.

Ray’s latest venture is a heartwarming film titled Only Child. The captivating story follows the life of a young lady on a mission to connect with her biological father after a tragic accident.

Only Child stars Harmony Pinkston, Natalie Rivera, and Janea Black. It also features Troy Brookins, Jayda Cheaves, Chino Braxton, and James McBryde.
