We’re about to have a new favorite show! Rapper Eve is joining Brandy and Naturi Naughton in a new ABC pilot.

Queens will follow four estranged members of an all-woman 90s hip-hop group, the Nasty Bitches, as they reunite in their 40s. Naturi Naughton and Nadine Velazquez will also star in the show, written and executive produced by Scandal‘s Zahir McGhee. 

Both Eve and Brandy have proven their acting chops after starring in several films and television shows throughout their careers. On top of their acting skills, the talented powerhouses will be lending their musical expertise writing and producing original music for the show.

Brandy’s character, Naomi, formerly known as Xplicit Lyrics, will wrestle with her poor relationship with her daughter. When the Nasty Bitches reunite, she will also have to confront the lost love of her life and the former bandmate who stole him away. 

Eve will be playing a character named Brianna, aka Professor Sex. Back in the day, Brianna rapped about sex, money, and swag. But now, she is a mother of five who swapped her glamorous lifestyle for that of a busy mom. She will have to figure out if she still has the confidence to be the hip-hop star she once was. 

Queens is sure to deliver on drama, quality acting, and good music. We hope the show gets enough buzz to be picked up for more episodes! Filming has already begun in Florida, and the air date is yet to be announced. Keep your eyes peeled for more updates. 

We love seeing our favorite Royal Women take on new projects together and can’t wait to support!
