Major hit-makers in the hip-hop community are coming to a television set to reveal the behind-the-scenes scoop on their personal life as well as business. Snoop Dogg, Bryan "Birdman" Williams, Jermaine Dupri, and Damon Dash are all set to star in the upcoming reality series on BET, Black Entertainment Television, reports Associated Press.
The new series will be executively produced by Lemuel Plummer. His resume also includes reality shows Preachers of Detroit, Preachers of Atlanta, Preachers of LA, and Extreme Makeover: Home Edition. The series will take place in Los Angeles, California. The rappers and producers will begin shooting in November. The series is expected to be released in late 2016. At this time, there is not any more information on the series, but honestly seeing the roster of hip-hop artists slated for the show, the plot is sure to be a show to see.
Birdman, founder of Cash Money Records, is currently at odds with his "son" and founder of YMCMB, a subsidiary of Cash Money, Lil Wayne. "How To Love" rapper claims to be owed millions of dollars for his work. Weezy also claims labelmates Drake, Nicki Minaj, and Tyga are all owed tons of dough from the Number 1 Stunna. Moreover. "Tha Carter" producer, DVLP, revealed SMS exchanges between himself and Baby revealing he was planning to sue him for $200,000 for unpaid work on numerous Lil Wayne chart-toppers. Yikes! If any of this drama is caught on air, it is bound to get ratings.
Snoop Dogg is no stranger to "candid cameras." The marijuana-loving emcee seems to be a huge fan of the reality television circuit, as he previously held a reality show on E! Network called "Snoop Dogg's Father Hood" in 2007-2008. Last month, the "Peaches and Cream" rapper said he will also be part of an AOL-hosted reality series following the various teams under the Snoop Youth Football League. He reportedly made the announcement at AOL's Future Front event at Pier 36 in New York which was attended by an estimated 2,500 professionals from the media and marketing industry.
Wow! Fans of Snoop and the rest of the cast will have to stay tuned for more information on the upcoming show.
