Hakeem Lyon has got some stiff competition for season 3 of Empire. In honor of the launch of our annual 50 Scoops in 50 Days Fall TV preview series, EW has exclusively learned that musician/actor Scott Mescudi, aka Kid Cudi, is joining the show.
Mescudi (Entourage, James White), will recur as another rapper named Gram, an independent musician who is a rival to Hakeem (Bryshere “Yazz” Gray) both in the studio and in life. That competition extends to romance: Gram is dating Hakeem’s ex, Tiana (Serayah McNeill).
Other stars already lined up for the third season of the Fox hit include Taye Diggs and French Montana.
