Grown-ish premiered back in 2018 as a spin-off from ABC’s other series, Black-ish. The show stars Yara Shahidi, Marcus Scribner, Trevor Jackson, Diggy Simmons, and more. Its sixth and final season will premiere on June 28.

NLE Choppa and Latto will be far from the first high-profile guests to star in Grown-ish. Saweetie made her acting debut on the show back in 2021. Speaking with Entertainment Weekly afterward, she explained that she wants to explore acting more. “I wanted to make sure I delivered,” she said at the time. She added: “I feel like with roles, whether if it’s an episode or in a music video, you always have to commit to the emotion of what you’re trying to portray. I thought it was cool, a little cheating but that’s okay: I played an artist and I’m an artist myself. But the girl’s attitude and personality is completely night and day with mine so I did have to learn about her. She’s a diva, she’s bossy.”

Saweetie added: “I could definitely see myself having a show or just doing more guest-star roles, or even doing a movie. I think it’s art. It’s fun to step outside my comfort zone and [it] allows me to just explore my creative side.”

Drake Unveils “Top Boy” Final Season Teaser Trailer, Confirms Release Date

by

Drake’s primary focus right now is obviously preparing for his upcoming tour with 21 Savage, but as always, the father of one has plenty of projects on the go. Aside from Honestly, Nevermind and Her Loss, which have both arrived within the last year, he’s also gearing up for the end of an era with the final season of his Netflix Original project, Top Boy. Of course, the show started long before Champagne Papi got involved, though he’s helped to popularize it in North America and beyond thanks to his efforts in reviving the British series.

On Friday (April 28), Drake’s Instagram feed lit up with a teaser trailer for the highly anticipated third and final season of the drug and drama-filled show. Unsurprisingly, main characters Dushane and Sully remain at each other’s throats as we’ve seen them in the past, battling to see who’s truly worthy of the title of Top Boy. Ashley Walters, Kane Robinson, Simbi Ajikawo, Jasmine Jobson, Saffron Hocking and Araloyin Oshunremi are all set to return, but the cast has also welcomed some newcomers. Barry Keoghan and Brian Gleeson have been tapped to play Jonny and Tadgh, respectively, LadBible reports.

Drake Teases Top Boy Season 3

Along with the first look at what’s to come in season three, Drake’s post also gave fans an unspecific release date of September. The second season arrived on streamers last March, with confirmation of more to come arriving shortly after. “These characters have been a part of our lives for over a decade now and without everyone’s support we couldn’t have come this far,” Walters and Robinson, who play Dushane and Sully, said in a statement at the time.”

“Staying true to our original goal, every story must have an ending and so season three will be our finale,” they sadly added. “A chance to come full circle and end the journey in the right way. We’re very excited about what’s next and thank you for riding with us.” Will you be watching Top Boy season three when it drops on Netflix this September?
