Premieres continue this week on Sunday, March 11 starting at 9/8C with Unsung: Blue Magic and Uncensored: Nia Long. R&B quintet Blue Magic stands as the last of the great vocal groups from the 1970s, and all five original members reunited for the first time since 1982 to tell their incredible story on Unsung. A stunning pop culture darling, Hollywood leading lady and three-time NAACP award winner Nia Long's run of success spans three decades. The journey to get there, however, was a turbulent one, and she's telling her story on Uncensored this Sunday at 10/9C.
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, 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, 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.
