Rap Sh!t season 2: release date, trailer, cast and everything we know about the series
Issa Rae is back with the comedic rap story inspired by the hip-hop duo City Girls.
After a great run in its first season, Rap Sh!t season 2 debuts this fall to once again not only entertain fans on screen, but also leave them with a song or two to put on their latest playlist.
Rap Sh!t season 1 ended with the rap duo of Shawna (Aida Osman) and Mia (KaMillion) coming to an understanding about wanting to prioritize the future of their group above their infighting and personal egos. Unfortunately, their success is threatened when Shawna’s past fraud schemes seemingly catch up with her as police have arrested her partner in crime, Maurice (Daniel Augustin).
