Back in 2017, it was revealed that Drake had purchased the rights to English drama Top Boy after U.K. broadcaster Channel 4 dropped the series. Now, the rapper has given viewers a first look at the forthcoming Netflix revival.

The series, set to arrive on Netflix this fall, stars Ashley Walters, Kane Robinson, Micheal Ward, Simbi Ajikawo (a.k.a. Little Simz), David Omoregie (a.k.a. Dave) and Shone Romulus. Walters and Robinson — who played Dushane and Sully in the series' original run — will each reprise their roles.

The revival will also feature original music from Brian Eno and Michael Asante.

A first trailer for the series can be found in the player below. Drake premiered the teaser ahead of his performance at the O2 Arena in London last night (April 1).
