VIBE Exclusive: Is Nick Cannon Resurrecting ‘Soul Train’?
by John Kennedy

Nick Cannon Presents Wild ‘n Out isn’t the only cult classic that
Cannon plans to give new life.

Trusted sources tell VIBE that Nick Cannon is rubbing his jaws of life
over the Soul Train franchise, as he negotiates a multi-million dollar
deal for complete rights to the urban music variety show.

The source says that deal is still in the works, however, the
NCredible CEO plans to revive the show in a modern-day format, with
the modern stars like The-Dream or Meek Mill commanding Soul Train
dance lines.

With Cannon's ties to TeenNick, MTV and NBC—where he signed a
production deal in November—it’ll be interesting to see where Soul
Train finds its new home.
