A US-based Kenyan music producer known as DO Speaks was selected as part of artistes who will make music in a spin-off of the series Power known as Power Book II: Ghost.
A spin-off is a creative derived from already existing works that focus on more details and different aspects from the original work.
The Power series is a blockbuster acted by famous actor Omari Hardwick portraying the character of James 'Ghost' St. Patrick.
American rapper Curtis Jackson (50 Cent) worked as a producer of the original crime series Power which ended in February with season six as the finale. 50 Cent will produce a spin-off of the series, working alongside the Kenyan DO Speaks.
"We are looking to bring in that musical aspect to the picture to make the story more compelling," DO Speaks stated while speaking with a local daily in Kenya on Friday, July 24.
DO Speaks is a Grammy-nominated producer who has worked with famous US artists among them Meek Mill, 2Chainz and Yo Gotti.
The producer posted a short celebratory message 'This should be fun' on his Instagram with the cover of the spin-off series slated for September 2020. Several Kenyans reacted and congratulated him for his achievement.
Less is known about the artist nor his background as he enjoys a private life and only shares his work on social media pages.
In the spin-off series, 50 Cent has featured several big names as cast.
Musician Mary J. Blige, Method Man, Michael Rainey Jr. (Tariq), Shane Johnson (Saxe), and Naturi Naughton (Tasha) will feature in the spin-off.
