The shows come from Blumhouse Television, Maniac Productions, and Campfire. The first show is an unscripted documentary series called Choir, while the other show will be a scripted drama from the same production team. Anthony Sparks, who is known for Queen Sugar and The Blacklist, will create the scripted show and act as showrunner and executive producer.

Their audition, in which they performed "Can't Hold Us" by Macklemore & Ryan Lewis, earned a standing ovation from the judges. Host Terry Crews, who grew up in Flint, Michigan, was brought to tears. "Every young man and woman on this stage represents me and where I came from," he said. Terry went on to hit the Golden Buzzer for the choir's performance.

Although they didn't win the million-dollar prize on AGT, the group still received $1 million from the city of Detroit. Last year, DYC released a cover of "Glory" by John Legend, Common, and Rhymefest, in support of the Black Lives Matter movement. They later performed at a Detroit campaign event for Joe Biden.
