Flavor Unit co-founder, Shakim Compere said, ”We share a common vision and have been wanting to collaborate for quite some time.” Overbrook’s Miguel Melendez added, ”We have known and admired Latifah for over 20 years: dating back to our music days, to her first television role on The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air, and years alter when she worked with Jada[Pinkett Smith] on the film Set it Off.”

This isn’t a first for Latifah, who hosted the Queen Latifah Show, which ran for two seasons in 1999.

The new untitled talk show will air in 2013.
