Fox’s “black-ish” has been lighting up the small screen right along with “Empire,” which is probably why the season finale will be star-studded. Sean “Diddy” Combs and Mary J. Blige are going to be reuniting as guest stars in final episode, which will be set in 1920s Harlem Renaissance.

The show’s adorable twins–Jack & Diane are searching for their family history and they ask their grandfather, aka “Pops,” played by Laurence Fishburne and he gives them a story about his great-great grandfather, Drexler Johnson’s (played by “black-ish” star Anthony Anderson) feud with a ruthless gangster, Elroy Savoy. Diddy will be playing Savoy. Blige will play Mirabelle Calais, the club headliner. Mary recently showed up in a flashback on “Empire,” as a singer alongside Terrance Howard. Could she be gearing up for a heftier acting career?
