The preview opens with Nikki Fre$h (Richie) pitching her music to three men.

"I am looking for music that only I can make," the character says. "I want to make music about things that are important to me."

The teaser features clips of Nikki Fre$h's music about wellness, which includes songs about ugly produce and bees.

"Conscious rap is music for everybody -- teachers, rabbis, Virgos -- but mostly moms and gays," the character says.

Richie promoted Nikki Fre$h in a tweet Thursday.

"This that parent trap. This that mommy rap. [Like] this tweet and get a reminder from @Quibi when my new show #NikkiFresh launches on April 6," she wrote.

Nikki Fre$h will feature socially conscious and educational music and interactions with real-life wellness experts. Richie will executive produce the series with Michael Baum and Carrie Franklin.

Quibi will launch with Nikki Fre$h and 49 other series and "movies in chapters" Monday.
