With multiple #1 movies and musical endeavors to his credit, rapper-actor Ludacris is no stranger to cooking up hits on the Billboard charts or box office.  Yet if the trailer to his new Discovery+ show is to be believed, that’s where his talents stop.

His effort to change that comes courtesy of ‘Luda Can’t Cook’ – a one-hour TV special that shows him bringing the heat in the kitchen under the tutelage of James Beard Award-nominated chef, Meherwan Irani.

In an official press statement, Luda (born Christopher Bridges) revealed his inspiration for the cooking show.

“I absolutely love food and have always appreciated the art of cooking, but I can’t lie – I have no idea what I’m doing in the kitchen,” he said. “I’m on a mission to change that and master one cuisine at a time – it’s going to be delicious.”

Produced by Will Packer, ‘Luda Can’t Cook’ will hit Discovery+ on February 25.
