Hip-Hop Royalty Unites for Tehk City: Dr. Dre, Ice-T, Snoop Dogg, and Arabian Prince Launch Animated Neo-Noir

A supergroup of West Coast hip-hop legends—Ice-T, Dr. Dre, Snoop Dogg, and N.W.A. founding member Arabian Prince—are pooling their creative forces to produce Tehk City, a gritty new animated action series. The project, which is being spearheaded by Ice-T and artist Tommy The Animator, is billed as a “high-octane animated neo-noir” set to deliver a fierce, uncompromising vision of a brutal future.

A World Where Chaos Reigns

Tehk City takes place in a brutal, near-future penal colony, where “every choice is life or death, chaos reigns and only the ruthless survive.” The aesthetic of the show is based on the distinctive, hard-hitting style of co-creator Tommy The Animator.

The series is a spin-off from the graphic novel prequel, Death For Hire: The Origin of Tehk City, and is envisioned as the centerpiece of a larger IP universe spanning music, toys, and other ventures.

The All-Star Lineup and Roles

The rap icons are not just lending their names; they are integral to the series’ creative and vocal performance:

• Ice-T serves as a co-creator, co-writer, and executive producer, and provides the voice for the show’s central character, the crooked Mayor Chuck Davis.
• Dr. Dre is attached as an executive producer and will compose the original score for the animated series, ensuring the soundtrack is as foundational to the project as the story.
• Snoop Dogg joins as an executive producer and is set to voice Pretty Black, an enigmatic figure who controls the black market network of intelligence throughout the city.
• Arabian Prince also steps up as a co-creator, co-writer, and executive producer, rounding out the team of hip-hop pioneers guiding the vision.

The project is being produced by Ambitious Entertainment, which is currently in discussions with major domestic and international distributors and streamers for a multi-platform release in the coming year.
