Former Bad Boy Rapper Shyne Signs A Deal With The Walt Disney Company, Roc Nation, And DJ Khaled To Release A Handful Of Biographical Projects [Video]

Former Bad Boy artist Shyne announces a new  partnership with The Walt Disney Company to release a handful of biographical projects.

On Thursday, the rapper turned politician posted a video to Instagram on him sharing the news during a press conference. Shyne says the deal is made through ESPN and Andscape. The two companies will release a documentary, a scripted biopic, a docu-series and an autobiography with DJ Khaled and Roc Nation producing one of the projects.

“Very pleased, very grateful that I was able to close a deal with Walt Disney and their subsidiaries ESPN and Andscape to produce my bio-documentary, bio-motion picture and bio-TV series, as well as my memoir,” Shyne says. “The documentary will be executive produced by DJ Khaled and Roc Nation. So stay tuned, we will begin production here in Belize in the Spring. And we look for a 2024 Summer release.”

He added, in the caption, some context to what fans can expect from the first biographical project.

“With @djkhaled and @rocnation executive producing,” he wrote. “You can expect nothing short of a riveting film that takes you on an unfiltered journey of my life from birth in Belize to the dreams, nightmares, triumphs, and tragedies involved in selling millions of albums, winning Grammy Awards, sacrificing my career and freedom to defend myself and friends, incarceration to reincarnation, fury to forgiveness, hurt to healing poverty to patriotism and purpose. Legendary Rapper to next Prime Minister of Belize!”

Shyne previously spoke on his projects during an interview with HipHopDX in 2021. He also revealed he would be getting back to music to support his work.

“I will be doing a bio movie and bio documentary as well as a bio TV series, which will all have corresponding soundtracks,” he said at the time.
