Rick Ross will now be able to add actor to his resume. BET confirmed to Billboard that the rapper has been casted to star in season two of Irv Gotti’s hit series, Tales.
Tales is a show that dramatizes lyrics from past and current Hip Hop songs. Other stars slated to appear in the second season include, Bella Thorne, Scarface, DeRay Davis, and Grace Byers, among others. The songs that will be re-enacted this season include, Mary J. Blige’s “My Life,” Nas’ “I Gave You Power,” Cardi B’s “Bodak Yellow,” Lauryn Hill’s “Ex Factor,” Geto Boys’ “Mind Playing Tricks on Me,” Migos and Gucci Mane’s “Slippery,” Lil Uzi Vert’s “XO TOUR Llif3,” and Dr. Dre and Snoop Dogg’s “Deep Cover.”
“Tales season two with BET promises to be even bigger and more entertaining than the first season,” Irv Gotti said in a statement to Billboard. “We had some incredible breakthroughs with season one, but fans should look for surprises and big guest appearances for season two. We plan to give people even more hip-hop cultured TV.”
It’s been an incredible year for Rick Ross, who recently had a baby boy, Billion. He also appeared on a couple soundtracks including, Creed II and Superfly. Here’s to significantly more success in 2019!
Season 2 of Tales debuts on BET on April 23.
