The Proud Family revival is in full swing and brings in celebrity guests weekly. On the episode that will premiere this Wednesday (April 13), legendary DJ Kid Capri will make his animated debut. Kid Capril will be the DJ for Penny Proud’s frenemy, LaCienega’s quinceañera.

A synopsis for the episode reads:
LaCienega’s quinceañera has finally arrived and she has very specific plans for it. When her cousin, LaBrea, an ugly-duckling-turned-beautiful-swan, threatens to steal her thunder, LaCienega grows increasingly hostile, which threatens to alienate Penny and her crew. Meanwhile, Sunset deals with her sister, Melrose’s, passive-aggressive critiques of every aspect of the quinceañera by choosing increasingly extravagant and expensive party elements that threaten to break the bank.

You can see the exclusive clip of DJ Kid Capri on The Proud Family below.

Kobe Bryant Was Reportedly Working on Animation Endeavor With ‘Proud Family’ Creator

Leave a comment

After winning an Oscar for the critically-acclaimed animation, Hair Love, the director, Bruce W. Smith, paid tribute to Kobe Bryant.

The tribute might have been a surprise to some, but apparently the two were discussing Bryant’s desires to dive into animation shortly before he passed.

“Kobe was heavily invested, at the time, in starting an animation studio,” Bruce W. Smith told Double Toasted in an interview from earlier in the month. “So for the past six months or so, Kobe and I had been in deep talks about making that happen.”

Unfortunately, we won’t get to see Kobe Bryant fully dive into the creative storytelling chapter of his career. Last year he took home an Oscar for his short film, Dear Basketball, and he had the potential to take home more awards for his work.

“It is still completely unbelievable,” the Proud Family creator said holding back emotions in the interview. “Like I still have not completely wrapped my head around the fact that Kobe’s not here. Totally heartbreaking.”
