Moneybagg Yo unveils his new song “Rookie of the Year” via CMG/N-Less/Interscope Records ahead of the release of Memphis Grizzlies star Ja Morant’s new six-part docuseries, “PROMISELAND.”
The triumphant track will air toward the end of “PROMISELAND,” a new docuseries that provides an inside look into Morant’s unexpected rise from unranked high school basketball prospect to NBA 2019-2020 Rookie of the Year.
The song’s inclusion in the docuseries signals a unique collaboration between the Memphis entertainer and the Memphis-based hooper. Bagg’s new song arrives fresh on the heels of his new studio album, A Gangsta’s Pain, which spent two weeks at No. 1 on the Billboard 200.
PROMISELAND is set to premiere as a Crackle Original on the service on June 3. The six-part series, created and directed by Dexton Deboree, founder of Falkon and visionary behind the award-winning feature film, Unbanned: The Legend of AJ1, chronicles Morant’s rapid ascension from an unknown high school prospect and overnight small college standout to the top tier of the NBA. The series is a joint project from the production teams of Deboree’s Falkon Entertainment, DLP Media Group, RTG Features, Interscope Films and Waffle Iron Entertainment, and will be introduced by Crackle at the NewFronts this month.
