HGTV Sets July Return for New Season of ‘Lil Jon Wants to Do What?’ 

HGTV and discovery+ will again team with hip-hop artist Lil Jon for a second season of its home renovation series Lil Jon Wants to Do What?, which will debut July 10.

According to HGTV, the series, which initially launched in May 2022, follows the rapper along with interior designer and expert builder Anitra Mecadon (who previously starred in DIY Network’s “Mega Dens” in Atlanta) as they look to take homeowners out of their design comfort zones. The series reportedly drew more than 12.7 million cumulative viewers during its freshman run.

During the fresh new eight-episode season, Lil Jon and Anitra will push the rapper’s bold creative vision to new heights, maxing out homes with over-the-top features. “I can’t wait for viewers to see what we’ve created in this season of Lil Jon Wants To Do What?,” says Lil Jon. “We went bigger, bolder and way outside of the box for these families. It’s been an incredible experience and I’m excited that soon we get to share it with everyone. Get ready for a wild ride!”

This unlikely dynamic design duo off Season 2 with an over-the-top basement renovation for clients Chris and Dana, who want to add an epic entertainment area for the whole family. The homeowners will give Lil Jon and Anitra full creative control to dream up a renovation and design that goes beyond the family’s wildest expectations. From the sitting area designed to look like a sleek hotel lobby and the upscale sports bar to the kids’ game room and home theater with a 100-inch screen, the duo will take Jon’s unprecedented renovation ideas and bring them to life. 

Over the course of the new season, the team will take on more awe-inspiring projects, including turning a dated colonial-style home into a futuristic dance club that features an enormous 40-inch disco ball and transforming an unused space into a movie room kitted out to mimic a posh private jet fuselage complete with curved walls, luxe seating and a cool copper-topped bar.

Season 2 of Lil Jon Wants To Do What? debuts on HGTV and discovery+ on July 10.
