 Larry Willmore, the creative force behind The Bernie Mac Show, is currently developing a ‘Hip Hop influenced’ show for NBC.

 

The show titled The Raftons, is based on a clueless corporate executive who finds himself having to run his younger brother’s business.

 

His younger brother just happens to be a rising hip-hop mogul and the older brother is no fan of the music and has a hard time trying to relate to the business side of Hip Hop.

 

Wilmore plans to play the role of the older brother and is considering casting a real rapper as the younger brother.

 

Wilmore, who is also credited for co-creating The Office and The PJ's, is also writing another half-hour show based on an idea from Steven Spielberg .
