In this emotional and deeply personal episode of Are We There Yet?, host Jermaine Curtis Liburd sits down with Manchester rapper Re Up Tee — a man whose life story embodies pain, struggle, and redemption.

From growing up in the care system and surviving on the streets, to serving time in prison for armed robbery and rebuilding his life through music, Re Up opens up like never before.

He talks about his father going to prison when he was just 5 years old, how that shaped his future, and the chilling parallels when he himself went to prison at 28 for the same crime. But beyond the mistakes and chaos lies a story of transformation — a man determined to be a better father, artist, and human being.

With his new album “VALOUR” out now, Re Up speaks on how music became his outlet, his therapy, and his weapon for change. This episode is raw, real, and brutally honest — a conversation about pain, growth, and the courage it takes to rewrite your story.
