“This new series takes us back to one of the most formative eras in music with the birth of the West Coast rap revolution,” said Grad. “We worked with Malcolm Spellman on the documentary series Hip Hop Uncovered and he has encyclopedic knowledge of this material. This is a breakout starring role for Gail Bean and, as always, Isaiah John is terrific along with the ensemble cast. Snowfall was one of the most successful FX dramas ever and we’re excited that Dave Andron, Thomas Schlamme and other veterans of the Snowfall creative team are on board.”

The new drama stars Gail Bean and Isaiah John, two veterans of Snowfall, who are joined by Asante Blackk, Peyton Alex Smith and Simmie Sims III.”
