Synopsis
HBO’s unscripted series Chillin Island follows New York City natives and rap personalities Alec “Despot” Reinstein, Ashok “Dap” Kondabolu, and Aleksey “Lakutis” Weintraub as they invite their friends to join them at the edge of nature to commune in deserts and swamps in a valiant effort to reveal unknowable truths from the “dreamstate” of the shared human existence. A brilliant mix of offbeat observations and weirdly funny revelations built around its unconventional hosts, the six-episode series features music industry icons including Young Thug, Lil Yachty, Rosalía, Gunna, Killer Mike, Ski Mask the Slump God, Lil Tecca, Coi Leray, and Vampire Weekend’s Ezra Koening. Executive produced by Josh Safdie and Sebastian Bear-McClard from Elara Pictures, the team at DreamCrew, and co- produced by Spotify.
