On May 28, he’ll host a special on the Food Network called “Questlove’s Potluck” that will help raise money for America’s Food Fund, an outfit that aids food organizations such as No Kid Hungry, Save the Children and Feeding America.
Tiffany Haddish will be a guest, as will people like Patti LaBelle, Gabrielle Union, Kenan Thompson, Bun B, Hannibal Buress, and Questlove’s bandmate Tariq “Black Thought” Trotter.
The concept of the show is based on Questlove’s 2019 cookbook, “Mixtape Potluck Cookbook: a Dinner Party for Friends, Their Recipes, and the Songs They Inspire.”
Questlove has made another major move in the TV world as the production company he and Trotter own, Two One Five Entertainment, announced in May that it closed a three-year deal with Universal Television to develop scripted and non-scripted programming and specials for Universal Television Alternative Studio.
In the area of food, Questlove is an investor in Impossible Foods, the company behind the plant-based Impossible Burger.
