Ludacris has joined forces with BET+ to develop a new series based on his life and experiences. Described as a half-hour “dramedy,” the show draws inspiration from Ludacris’ journey in the competitive Atlanta music scene as DJ Chris Lova Lova. The narrative will revolve around the adventures of a vivid ensemble willing to go to great lengths to boost ratings at their Hip Hop radio station.

The series will not only feature Ludacris in an executive producer role but will also have the creative input of key figures like Chaka Zulu, Noah Gardenswartz, Larry Wilmore, Malcolm D. Lee, Dominique Telson, Jeff Dixon, Josh Bratman, and David Blackman. Ludacris will, unsurprisingly, oversee the musical aspects of the upcoming production.
