Nicki Minaj will produce a comedy series for ABC Family based on her childhood in Queens, the network announced today. The currently untitled project is expected to explore Minaj’s experience growing up as an immigrant from Trinidad in the ‘90s, and will tell the tale of “the personal and musical evolution that lead to her eventual rise to stardom.” According to the network, Minaj will “also appear in” the single-camera series, though the extent of her role is unknown. Will she have an actual part, or will she just narrate it, à la Everybody Hates Chris? Either way, we hope TV Nicki’s high school is safer than Drake’s.
