The featured artists include LL Cool J, Duran Duran, and New Kids on the Block, as well as Ricky Martin, Huey Lewis, and Busta Rhymes. Rounding out the lineup are Jennifer Lopez, Bret Michaels, and Fat Joe.
Paramount+ will also air a selection of remastered classics from the vault updated for today’s audiences with new one-on-one artist interviews. Until this new batch, there hadn’t been a new episode of Behind the Music produced since 2012.
