Last year, Harlow earned his first solo Billboard Hot 100 topper with The record samples Fergie’s 2006 hit “Glamorous.” The rapper previously had a Billboard Hot 100 No. 1 for his feature on Lil Nas X’s Grammy-nominated “Industry Baby” last year.

Outside of the studio, Harlow has been hard at work on the basketball court. He will be starring in the White Men Can’t Jump remake. The rapper is playing the character Jeremy played by Woody Harrelson in the original. Sinqua Walls will be taking over Wesley Snipes’ role as Kamal Allen. The film will also star Teyana Taylor, Laura Harrier, Vince Staples, Myles Bullock, and Lance Reddick. It finds both Harlow and Walss’ characters strapped for cash so they devise a plan to enter a basketball competition that could win them $50,000.

The film is set to release on May 19.

Take a look at the first look trailer for White Men Can’t Jump below:
