In yet another acquisition by Apple, the company has acquired all the rights for the very popular carpool karaoke series. James Corden started this as a part of the late show on CBS. The kind of money Apple has put in to acquire the rights is still unknown. The episodes of the show will be now released on the Apple Music.
Just for the sake of information to the unknown people, the idea of the Carpool Karaoke was tossed by Corden. The idea was to drive along with any musician or celebrity and sing some of the popular hit numbers. The list of the celebrities in the show of the James Corden included:
· One Direction
· Michelle Obama
· Justin Bieber
· Stevie Wonder
· Red Hot Chili Peppers and many more appear.
Ben Winston, the executive producer of the “Late Late Show” from Fulwell 73 will be expanding the show now. The produced episodes will be streamed weekly on the Apple Music. The decision on the host for the show is still unclear. James Corden is not expected to be the host of the show anymore after the acquisition now. Eddy Cue hinted in past that Apple will not be producing own shows. Apple is likely to work upon the existing content. Apple finds the Carpool Karaoke a fun way to sing along with celebrities for the pure love of the music.
The fresh and new episodes of the Karaoke series will be streamed by Apple every week. Corden’s carpool show have acquired more than 10 million views per video in past. A lot of work is being done by Apple on the TV show “Planet of The Apps”. This show is expected to be aired sometime in 2017 by Apple. We are yet to experience the results behind acquiring the carpool show. Hope Apple materializes it in the same manner as James Corden did.
