Hov long ago established himself as an entrepreneur and master performer. The question is, how good a cartoon would he make? As rumored before the rapper performed at the network’s upfronts last night, the Jay-Z Adult Swim project now in development may be an original animated series. There are few details about the proposed project, including whether the program will be about Jay-Z, be produced by him or any number of collabo options. That being said, is anyone else immediately picturing Hova as the voice of a tiny adorable poodle? Maybe a new-born baby? Anything sweet and cuddly paired with his famous voice would be golden.
As Cartoon Network‘s after-hours block, Adult Swim has teamed with musicians before: T-Pain stopped by Aqua Teen Hunger Force, and Busta Rhymes and Snoop Dogg voiced characters for The Boondocks. Odd Future and Major Lazer Adult Swim projects are currently in development for the coming year as well, as is Nick Cannon‘s new show The Dummiez. With so many rappers already making cartoon magic, it’ll be interesting to see what show Jay-Z decides to put his stamp. As a tiny baby deer in an itty-bitty top hat!
