● In “Drive with Swizz Bea,” hip-hop legend and car collector Swizz Bea and son Nasir Dean (also known as Note Mercato) visit car-loving destinations, where they’ll examine the area’s distinctive car culture and bring together two otherwise disparate car clubs over a shared love of all things automotive and an appreciation for what it’s like to beat the odds through sheer drive alone.
● The series is produced by Jay Brown and Tyran “Ty Ty” Smith of Ty Ty and Jay Brown Productions, Raymond Garcia of Major TV, Emmet Dennis of Black Drive Originals, and Christian Sarabia of 51 Minds.
● “Drive with Swizz Bea” will stream exclusively on Hulu in the U.S., Star+ in Latin America, and Disney+ in all other territories.
