From Moncks Corner to Mainstream TV
Once again, Charlemagne tha god continues to make his hometown of Moncks Corner, South Carolina proud. From inside the walls of Z-93 in Charleston, S.C. and being ‘fired from every radio station he’s worked at’, as he likes to proudly proclaim; Charlemagne has made a permanent mark in the entertainment industry. As is being the co-host of one of the country’s biggest morning show’s, The Breakfast Club, isn’t enough; Charlemagne tha god has managed to take his personal brand even bigger. He just inked a deal with HBO.
This week HBO announced that they’ve ordered a series called The Grey Area with Charlemagne tha god. This is an interview series, that will consist of four, hour-long specials that are set to start late 2018. Charlemagne is tapped as the executive producer of the series alongside Karen Kinney. As of right now, there’s no word on who will be interviewed, or the subject matter, but we can only guess from the ‘in your face‘ type of commentary we hear daily on The Breakfast Club, Charlemagne is probably ready to tackle the tough subjects.
In a recent interview, Charlemagne is thankful for his new job, and this new television journey:
“I feel extremely blessed to be able to announce my official partnership with HBO on a new conversation series which will provide a safe space for ‘unsafe’ people to curate their stories and control their own narratives,” said Charlamagne. “The reality is, when it comes to people’s stories, it’s not black or white, it’s always an area that’s a shade of gray and that’s usually where the lies end and the truth begins, and this show will give those people an opportunity to share their truth. Thank you to my new television home, HBO and all praise is due to God.”
