Mariah Carey will be the mastermind behind the theme song for the Black-ish spin-off, Mixed-ish. According to Vibe, the Pop star has tentatively titled the song, “In The Mix”. Carey will earn writing credits for the song as well.
After the news was announced, Carey said, “As a fan of Kenya Barris’ megahit shows, black-ish and grown-ish, I was inspired to connect with Kenya to find a way we could work together.”
She added, “As a biracial woman in the entertainment industry, there was no way I did not want to be a part of mixed-ish, especially after seeing the pilot, which I loved. I could not be more honored and proud to be writing and performing ‘In the Mix’ for Kenya and the show.”
Mixed-ish will chronicle the childhood of Black-ish mother, Rainbow Johnson, as she navigates being a bi-racial child in America. The new ABC series will be led by Black-ish creator, Kenya Barris. Black-ish star Tracee Ellis Ross will also help produce the series.
Mixed-ish will premiere on September 24th at 9 p.m. on ABC.
