"As the first project that I have developed and green lighted, I am extremely proud of what the team has accomplished with the success of our new series UNCENSORED," said General Manager, Michelle Rice. "We were hoping UNCENSORED would be a big hit because it checked all the right boxes -- great stories, authentic voices and extraordinary people."

Through first-hand accounts, interviews with family and friends, and archival footage, each episode of TV One's signature series Unsung sheds much-deserved light on some of the most influential and talented R&B, soul, funk, hip hop, disco, and gospel artists of the last 30 years. Also featuring Deborah Cox, Avant, Shirley Caesar, Blue Magic, Brand Nubian, Trick Daddy and Lost Boyz, season 12 of TV One's critically acclaimed and award-winning Unsung uncovers the personal triumphs and struggles of these musical legends.

In its first season, UNCENSORED dives deep into the lives of your favorite personalities as they reveal secrets to their success, obstacles they've faced, and how they manage this new world of social media that has helped but sometimes haunted their careers. The 10-episode autobiographical series gives unprecedented access to stars of film, television, music, and pop culture, including La La Anthony, Snoop Dogg, Nia Long, NeNe Leakes, Charlamagne Tha God, Le'Andria Johnson, and more as they personally reveal their own stories, in their own words, in the places their stories unfolded.
