Dave East isn’t the only rapper in the cast of Hulu’s upcoming drama Wu-Tang Clan: An American Saga. In an interview with Power 105.1’s Angie Martinez, Joey Bada$$ revealed he is playing Inspectah Deck in the series.

“Me and Dave East is in [the] Wu-Tang [series],” Joey told Martinez. “I’m Inspectah Deck.”

When Martinez asked how much of the show has been shot, the Pro Era MC said the RZA-helmed series is currently in production.

Martinez then questioned Joey about the show’s authenticity. The Beast Coast member — who has acted in BET’s Boomerang and USA’s Mr. Robot — said he’s waiting to see it like everyone else but thinks it’s doing Wu-Tang justice.
