AllHipHop recently revealed that Jim Jones is planning to develop a musical called “The Jim Jones Project” which will be based on his life story. The Off-Broadway production will take place in New York on November 12th and 13th as actors will play out the lyrics to his music. According to an “insider” Jones is “taking his upcoming album and telling his life story via the album and the actors are acting it out as a play to release his album. The upcoming album is the soundtrack to the play.”
This is either really genius or just straight up loco. Regardless, you gotta give Jimmy some props for thinking outside the box and willing to try something new. Now if only 2 Live Crew would re-enact their first album into a musical.
