Ludacris to Produce New Netflix Animated Series, ‘Karma’s World,’ Inspired by His Oldest Daughter
Ludacris has announced that he’s partnered with Netflix to bring a new Black animated series, Karma’s World, that was inspired by his daughter.
Rapper, actor and producer, Ludacris, has a new project in the works. His new animated series, Karma’s World, will focus on female empowerment as it centers around 10-year-old rapper Karma Grant.
The series is inspired by Ludacris’ oldest daughter Karma, now 18, and it will take on important issues including self-esteem, discrimination, body positivity, and many more. Karma’s World will seek to provide more representation for young Black girls who may not be used to seeing characters that look like them in children’s shows or movies.

Karma will serve as a positive role model for young girls as she aims to use her music and way with words to empower those in her community. At this point in his career, 43-year-old Ludacris wants to leave a legacy for his four daughters. “Karma’s World is one of those legacies,” he says.
