“I wanted to create a show that would serve as a platform for young voices in today’s evolving culture,” said Harris. “There is nothing out there like this show and I know The Mix will fill that void.”

“The Mix is such a breath of fresh air in the talk space. Young voices are the future, and right now you won’t find any other talk show featuring Black Gen-Z and millennial men and women leading the conversation. I wish there was a show like this when I was 21,” said King.

“The opportunity to bring our idea to life, and working with Tameka and Jill has been a dream come true. It’s finally time for millennials to have a safe space to discuss all things in and for the culture and I am excited to have a seat at this table,” said Peeples.

“As Fox Soul becomes the premiere destination for black culture content, we found an immediate need for our young people to have a platform to discuss real issues; in a open format, with some of today’s hottest celebrities and some of the cultures most pivotal activists”, Fox Soul Head of Programming, James DuBose said.
