ABC released the music video for Mariah Carey’s “Mixed-ish” theme song, “In the Mix,” on Tuesday.
The video, which sees clips of the show intercut with footage of the cast dancing to the song, comes a week ahead of the series premiere on Tuesday, Sept. 24.
A spinoff of the Kenya Barris comedy “Black-ish,” “Mixed-ish” is a prequel centered on Tracee Ellis Ross’ charater Rainbow Johnson as she recounts her experience growing up in a mixed-race family in the ’80s.
“As a biracial woman in the entertainment industry, there was no way I did not want to be a part of ‘mixed-ish,’ especially after seeing the pilot, which I loved,” Carey said in a statement when news of her involvement was first announced. “I could not be more honored and proud to be writing and performing ‘In the Mix’ for Kenya and the show.”‘
Ross narrates the series and serves as an executive produce alongside Barris, showrunner Karin Gist and pilot co-writer Peter Saji. Mark-Paul Gosselaar, Tika Sumpter, Christina Anthony, Arica Himmel, Ethan William Childress, Mykal-Michelle Harris and Gary Cole star.
