Staples was born in Compton but grew up in the Ramona Park area of North Long Beach, which has been the backdrop and inspiration for many of his creative works, including his most recent album &#8220;Ramona Park Broke My Heart.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Few details were available about the show, but according to an interview with Grammy.com last year, Staples said the show is based on two vignettes he released on Youtube in 2019 under the same name.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;[We\u2019re] just trying to go off of those and turn them into a 30-minute show,&#8221; Staples told <a href=\"https:\/\/www.grammy.com\/news\/vince-staples-shares-favorite-song-self-titled-album-teases-new-netflix-show-graphic-interview\">Grammy.com<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Vince Staples - Episode 01: So What?\" width=\"500\" height=\"281\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/Q6KFcZp-Kso?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p>A release date for &#8220;The Vince Staples Show&#8221; hasn&#8217;t yet been announced.<\/p>\n<p>Staples will executive produce the show alongside &#8220;Black-ish&#8221; creator Kenya Barris.
