One thing that fans of television can agree upon, is that we are truly living in a golden age for T.V. shows. Because new and dynamic stories keep finding their ways to the small screen and each of every one of us keep finding new characters to latch onto and care about and learn from. Because television keeps presenting us with unique stories that explore parts of the human condition, that few of us understand and that particularly wonderful aspect of the industry as it stands is top of mind, simply because another story in that vein is about to hit the airwaves.
For January 5, 2023, will see the debut of Kold x Windy on WE tv and well… judging from the plot synopsis that was released by the network and the supertease trailer that accompanied it, it is obvious this is going to be a special show. One that is going to take us on a unique ride that will provide us with a unique perspective on chasing one’s dreams and for proof… then look no further than the details in question and that supertease trailer, courtesy of WE tv. ‘WE tv today released the supertease trailer for its all-new, eight-episode scripted drama series, Kold x Windy, from creators Kenny Young (One Week), Phil James (Bachelors), and Vernon “Xtreme” Brown (Raven Music). Exposing the reality behind Chicago’s south side and its street culture that has influenced our entire nation, the original series, premieres on Thursday, January 5, 2023 at 10 PM ET/9 PM CT on WE tv. New episodes become available on popular AMC streaming service ALLBLK, every Monday, following their premiere on WE tv. Fueled by the authentic sounds and raw energy surrounding the drill music movement, Kold x Windy follows rising hip hop and drill star Malika “Kold” Wise (Sh’Kia Augustin, Black Lightning); who is desperate to create a better life for her and her son in Chicago’s south side. Her trusted confidant and group member Renee “Windy” Johnson (Nijah Brenea, Rap Sh!t), is a rapper with a strong dedication to the city streets. As Malika’s career begins to ignite, the challenges she faces start to stack up. Her lifelong hustle – credit card fraud – catches up with her, and rival drill artists start to view her as a threat. When new love arises, the pressures of making music, her hustle and her troubled son may stand in the way…alongside Renee who does not support Malika’s desire to change her image and will stop at nothing to prevent it. Will Malika be able to break free of her life of street crime to achieve her music dreams and save her family?
