Erika Alexander (Detective Latoya) played it cagey and gave no hints about her role, though when Lil Rel happened by, she did admit to having a “hilarious” scene together. But we did manage to get her to share some details about the release of the next installment of her comic book series, “Concrete Park”, due out later this year.
