The CW just bought Straight Outta Heaven, a TV show about angels who rap
Deadline reports that The CW has just emerged victorious in a bitter bidding war for a “rapping angels” TV show from Boy N The Hood director John Singleton and his producing partner, Dallas Jackson. The hourlong drama is being described as “Touched by an Angel-meets-Ghost with an urban twist,” and “a faith-based, hip-hop-infused guardian angel drama.” Also, it’s called Straight Outta Heaven. presumably because God loves winking references to West Coast rap.
