WE tv has greenlit a Growing Up Hip Hop spinoff starring franchise veterans Toya Johnson-Rushing and Reginae Carter, according to a new report.
Per a Deadline report, Toya & Reginae will feature ex-wife and daughter of hip hop legend Lil Wayne, Toya Johnson-Rushing and Reginae Carter, both of whom appeared on WE tv’s Growing Up Hip Hop.
Fans will get to “peek behind the curtain and see who they truly are: what’s happening in their love lives, how they navigate those relationships in conjunction with their exciting and demanding careers and their relationship with each other,” according to a network press release. “As happy as they seem on social media, their lives are unpredictable and full of chaos as they navigate a seemingly dysfunctional family.”
The news of the Growing Up Hip Hop spinoff was first announced by AMC Studios’ President of Original Programming Dan McDermott at the network’s upfront presentation in New York City on Tuesday, April 18th.
Both Growing Up Hip Hop and Toya & Reginae are produced by Entertainment One (eOne) with Tara Long and Gennifer Gardiner serving as executive producers alongside Datari Turner of Datari Turner Productions, according to Deadline. Ashley McFarlin executive produces for WE tv.
In addition to this new show, WE tv also greenlit a scripted series starring former Love & Hip Hop star and music mogul Deb Antney called Bev is Boss. Both series will premiere later this year.
