Queen Latifah and Jermaine Dupri are on the hunt for the next big hip hop sound in the industry.
According to the Hollywood Reporter, the duo is putting in work on a new unscripted series called The Rap Game.
The eight-episode series will follow five aspiring young artists navigating the vast Atlanta hip hop scene and mentored by some of the greatest names in the game.
Dupri, who acts as producer on the show, has tapped the likes of Usher, Ludacris, Da Brat, T.I. and Silento to help guide the pupils each week, showing them how to better hone their crafts.
