Raj Bond plays Calvin Moore on Empire. In episode 7 of season 4, “The Lady Doth Protest” we see Calvin and Porsha (Ta’Rhonda Jones) call for a strike. Cookie (Taraji P. Henson) and Uncle Eddie (Forest Whitaker) have Empire Entertainment’s employees working extra hard to prepare for the labels 20-For-20 series.
Raj Bond produces independent films and he recently graduated from a Professional Actor Training Program. Bond currently focused on honing his acting skills and he’s devoted to the craft of Shakespeare. Empire is a great fit for Raj since the series is based on William Shakespeare’s tragedy, King Lear.

In the video below, Calvin calls out Queen Cookie about Empire‘s horrible working conditions. He explains that the long hours and short turn around times have to stop. Cookie is making her employees work weekends and holidays. The music game is competitive but the Lyons are going overboard.
Calvin’s confidence is rubbing off on Porsha. After Calvin calls Cookie out, Porsha also tells her about herself. Porsha has deserved a promotion for a long time and I’m glad she’s finally speaking up.
