what is swarm based on

According to the search results, the TV series "Swarm" is based on a few true-ish stories. The show creators, Donald Glover and Janine Nabers, have been very clear that Swarm was inspired by Beyoncé and her fan army, the Beyhive, and many of the details about the character Ni’Jah, directly lead back to Queen Bey. However, the series maintains that it is still "a work of fiction". The show blurs the line between fact and fiction, and while there were rumors that a Marissa Jackson existed, it’s understood that her death was just a viral hoax. The character Dre, as portrayed by Fishback, is not based on any one person. The disclaimer at the beginning of each episode of Swarm reads, "This is not a work of fiction".
