“The Grand Hustle Empire is always expanding so therefore we
needed to add a very talented, highly skilled executive to our
team,” said Harris. “It doesn’t matter if you got your hustle at
Harvard or the hood, 'THE GRAND HUSTLE' is about how you
handle business and what you can do for the brand so I wanted to
create a show that offers an equal playing field.”
The 12, one-hour episode series is set in Atlanta and the
candidates are determined to prove they have what it takes to
out-hustle the rest. They serve up big deals and even bigger doses
of drama each week as they fight for their seat at the table.
Ultimately, only one will be crowned the Grand Hustler.
“Tip is one of the smartest, most impressive businessmen I have
ever met,” said EP Brian Sher. “His business acumen is second to
none, and his entrepreneurial spirit is unmatched. I’m excited for
the world to get a window into how Tip thinks and operates.”
Along with Tip and Sher, “THE GRAND HUSTLE” is executive
produced by Christian Sarabia (EP), Johnny Petillo (EP/Showrunner),
Vinnie Kaufman (EP/Showrunner) and produced by 51 Minds
Entertainment.
