“Profoundly talented, multi-hyphenate, Newark, [New Jersey], native Queen Latifah has always homed in on culturally relevant, representative and hugely entertaining content. Having worked with Queen Latifah, Shakim Compere and Flavor Unit for years across various film and TV projects, I’ve had a front row seat to watching their creative magic at work,” Audible Studios’ Zola Marshariki also told the Hollywood trade.
“We absolutely can’t wait to create and innovate with them on a slew of new audio projects. The Newark community is at the core of Audible’s DNA so we’re especially excited to have Queen Latifah cover social activism in her hometown and beyond with Unity in the Community.”
Queen Latifah was also awarded the Lifetime Achievement Award in June at the BET Hip Hop Awards.
