In addition to Jean’s upcoming arrival on Queens, fellow Golden Era emcee Cam’ron previously joined the show’s cast as a recurring character. The Dipset general shared an Instagram video featuring Naturi Naughton and Brandy Norwood from the set of the series in September.

Wyclef Jean became a Grammy-winning recording artist as a member of the legendary rap crew known as the Fugees. The Haitian-born musician also released solo projects such as 1997’s The Carnival and 2017’s Carnival III: The Fall and Rise of a Refugee.

Queens will not be Wyclef Jean’s first attempt at acting. He also displayed his on-screen chops in films like Shottas, Be Cool, and Black November. Jean’s television experience includes stints on Third Watch, Nashville, and Law and Order: Special Victims Unit.
