Taking a chance on Bob

AMERICAN emcee Chance The Rapper will be the voice of the late reggae legend Bob Marley in the second season of Black Dynamite. The series returns to Adult Swim in 2014.

According to allhiphop.com, the 20-yearold, guttural-voiced rapper said he was unprepared for the role and that should add to the hilarity.

“I had to go in the studio at Soundscape and record from the script and do the reading. I had to play Bob Marley,” he said.

Black Dynamite is an animated action-comedy inspired by the 2009 blaxploitation parody film of the same name. The show stars series regulars Michael Jai White, Tommy Davidson, Kym Whitley, and Byron Minns.

The programme’s first season featured guest appearances by Snoop Dogg, Eddie Griffin, J B Smoove, Aries Spears, Charlie Murphy, and more.
