Sesame Street’s New Season Features SZA, Renee Rapp, Noah Kahan, More
The incomparable musical legacy of 'Sesame Street' continues with the show's 55th season: SZA, Renee Rapp, Noah Kahan, Samara Joy and more.
Very few television programs have the iconic history of musical guests that Sesame Street does: Over the years it’s featured everyone from Stevie Wonder to Tony Bennett, Erykah Badu to the Fugees, Patti Labelle to R.E.M., and clever interpretations like odes to the letter U from both One Direction (“What Makes U Useful”) and Smokey Robinson (“U Really Got a Hold on Me”), and opera singer Marilyn Horne trilling an operatic version of “C Is for Cookie,” and much more. That legacy continues in the show’s 55th season, which launches on Max with Renee Rapp on Jan. 16 and follows with SZA, Noah Kahan, Michael B. Jordan, Samara Joy, Chris Stapleton, Jonathan Van Ness and Billie Jean King joining for songs and other segments. “New episodes of Sesame Street will help young viewers understand and express their feelings, learn new mindfulness practices, and as always, have a blast with their favorite furry and funny friends,” said Sal Perez, the show’s executive prodiucer.
