Watch New Trailer for Issa Rae & City Girls ‘RAP SH!T’
Issa Rae’s Insecure series on HBO was a hit! So, when she announced the last season, fans were bummed. But, she also announced she was working on a few new project including the new series Rap Sh!t. The new show stars Aida Osman and KaMillion, two high school friends who reunite to form a rap group. The cast also includes Jonica Booth, Devon Terrell and RJ Cyler. Executive producers include Syreeta Singleton, Yung Miami and JT of the City Girls, Quality Control Films’ Kevin “Coach K” Lee and Pierre “P” Thomas, Montrel McKay, Jonathan Berry, Deniese Davis, Sara Rastogi and Dave Becky.
Issa had this to say about the series:
“I think this is just such a unique time in hip-hop, especially when it comes to female rappers, because there’s such an abundance, and it doesn’t feel like they’re all in competition with each other. I’m a child of the ’90s, and there used to always be a tendency to put two women against one another. It feels like we’re in an era where there’s such a supportive environment now because of that abundance. All of that, combined with just my own story of coming up, became the next story that I wanted to tell.”
You can watch the trailer for RAP SH!T below and stay tuned for the premiere July 21 on HBO Max.
