This is yet another television role for the rapper.

Migos rapper Quavo is coming back to the small screen. In 2016, Quavo showed off his chops in his acting debut on FX's Atlanta and just last year he guest-starred on Star. Continuing on in his acting career, the rapper teased that he may have a new upcoming role on the award-winning sitcom comedy, Black-ish.

For those of you who aren't up on the Black-ish game, the show follows a suburban black family as they hilariously navigate being the only people of color in their social spheres. The show has covered controversial topics such as police brutality, the inclusion of Black History Month, the violent institution of slavery, and interracial relationships.

Quavo shared a photo of himself on the Black-ish set with the caption "B L A C K • I S H Coming Soon!!," but fans will have to wait a little while longer if they want to get more details than that. There have been plenty of rappers who have turned into successful actors including 50 Cent, Ice Cube, Ice-T, Queen Latifah, Bow Wow, Andre 3000, Will Smith, Mos Def, Tupac, and more. Do you think Quavo is on his way to an illustrious acting career?
