The Snap Originals are made exclusively for Snapchat and utilize the unique ways users watch content on their mobile phones.

Each video is typically no longer than five minutes, is played vertically and is fast-paced, with graphics, split screens and quick cuts.

“Tekashi69 VS The World” will be joined by a host of new shows on the platform, including the second season of docuseries “Bringing Up Bhabie,” which follows 16-year-old rapper and viral sensation Bhad Bhabie as she continues on her rollercoaster ride through fame and stardom.

Transgender beauty mogul Nikita Dragun is also getting her own series titled “Nikita Unfiltered,” which sees her reveal a vulnerable new side of herself that her millions of fans haven’t yet experienced as she starts to date as a woman for the first time.

And “The Honeybeez” will follow Alabama State University’s dynamic and inspiring plus-size dance squad as they persevere to showcase their remarkable performances on the biggest collegiate stages.
