Fox have confirmed that Kanye West will be lending his voice to The Cleveland Show alongside Academy Award nominee Taraji P. Henson (The Curious Case of Benjamin Button):-
“West will appear as Kenny West, an all-around cool kid and the archenemy of Cleveland Jr. (Kevin Michael Richardson), and the two will engage in a rap battle for the affection of high school hottie Chanel (Henson).”
The same press release also appears to indicate a few changes to the cast line-up with Reagan Gomez-Preston replacing Nia Long as Roberta, the step-daughter, and Jason Sudeikis joining as “hipster wanna-be” Holt. Kevin Michael Richardson will be voicing Cleveland Jr. (formerly voiced by Mike Henry) and “loudmouth redneck” Lester.
