Actor/rapper Travis Bennett and producer Steelo Brim have been tapped as new hosts of “The Shop,” taking over for LeBron James and Maverick Carter as the show returns for a new season of episodes starting Monday, June 22.

The news was announced Monday by Fulwell Entertainment, the banner that came out of last year’s merger of Fulwell 73 and SpringHill. The company noted that James and Carter selected Bennett and Brim to take over as hosts and insiders note that Carter will still operate in the same building where “The Shop” is shot — and plans to continue to interact with the show’s hosts and production team.
