Drake may be the hottest thing in hip-hop, but he’s not completely ditching his television roots.

The former actor on Degrassi: The Next Generation is developing a TV comedy series called Us and Them to air in Canada, according to a press release.

Produced by The Nightingdale Company, the tongue-in-cheek satire features two best friends trying to find their way in the entertainment industry. Drake’s costar, Mazin Eisadig, is also a Degrassi alum.

Fans will see less of the T. Dot rapper this summer on the Young Money Presents: Americas Most Wanted Music Festival, as a torn ACL is preventing him from performing a full set. Instead, Drizzy will be limited to guest performances on the tour, which also stars Lil Wayne, Young Jeezy, Soulja Boy, Nikki Minaj and the rest of Young Money.
