During "Folk Music Week," Calvin struggles to connect to music written years before he was born; Reggie tries to teach him the origins of folk music, but it all comes down to whether Calvin can find the meaning in the music for himself.

During "Mentor Week," Calvin is paired with R&B superstar Will-E, who also came out of the Atlanta music scene; meeting a successful musician of a similar background brings out complicated feelings in Reggie, who is celebrating his 40th birthday.
