Black Mafia Family is securing Black excellence.
The show recently added Snoop Dog, La La Anthony, and Serayah to its cast. The show is executive produced by Curtis “50 Cent” Jackson.
Snoop Dogg, a hip-hop legend and “Dolemite is My Name” star, will have a spiritually-themed recurring role on the Detroit-set series, DEADLINE reported. Both Anthony and Serayah will also have recurring guest roles on the show produced by 50’s G-Unit Film and Television in league with Lionsgate TV for Starz.
The show is based on the true story of Detroit’s infamous Demetrius “Big Meech” Flenory and Terry “Southwest T” Flenory drug trade sway that caused an ugly storm in the late 1980s. 50 landed the deal with the Jeff Hirsh-run Starz in 2018 to officially run the series in April 2020. Detroit native Randy Huggins will come on as writer/executive producer.
Snoop Dogg will play “Pastor Swift,” the family’s spiritual advisor who does his best to keep Meech and Terry in good graces. As for Anthony, she will pay “Markaisha Taylor,” the wife of a flamboyant drug dealer that became friends with Meech and Terry.
Serayah is set to place “Lori Walker,” Demetrius’ girlfriend and mother of his child “Neeka.”
