“American Soul” returns, a week from today on Wednesday May 27th at 10 PM ET/PT on BET & BET Her.
The first episode for season two is entitled “1975.” As Soul Train’s success rises and Don’s (Sinqua Walls) health declines, Delores (Perri Camper) returns with questionable motives and a ghost from Gerald’s past rattles well-laid plans. Meanwhile, Simone (Katlyn Nichol) tries desperately to resurrect her relationship with JT (Christopher Jefferson) and her recording career. Ledisi is the guest star, playing the role of the legendary Patti LaBelle.
Inspired by the personal trials and professional successes of a young, ambitious and troubled impresario Don Cornelius, the period drama picks up two years later in 1975. As Don becomes a rising star, he continues to manage an assortment of spectacular talent that comes to his show, a complicated family life, failing personal health, and perhaps most importantly, his ego.
The eight-episode season two of “American Soul” features a cast of multi-talented actors including Sinqua Walls who plays a young Don Cornelius. Series regulars also include Kelly Price, Jason Dirden, Iantha Richardson, Katlyn Nichol and Christopher Jefferson.
The new season features dynamic guest stars portraying some of the most prolific musicians and visionaries of the era. Big Boi (Grammy® Award-winning rapper, “Idlewild”), Ledisi (Grammy® Award-nominated artist, “Selma”), Melanie Fiona (Grammy® Award-winning singer) Demetria McKinney (“House of Payne”), London Brown (“Ballers”), Darius McCrary (“Family Matters,” “Transformers”), Tone Bell (“Little,” “Fam”) Yung Joc (“Love & Hip Hop: Atlanta”), D.C.
