BURBANK, Calif. - Oct. 2, 2019 - Nickelodeon, the number-one kids' network, and Tyler Perry Studios have entered into a content partnership to jointly develop and produce a new kids and family live-action series with 10-year-old rapper Young Dylan (Dylan Gilmer, @officialyoungdylan).

We know kids are going to love watching Dylan and we can't wait to introduce him and his new show to our audience."
