Reality Show Recap: MCs Scuffle on Premiere of “Miss Rap Supreme”

4/15/08, 11:27 am EST


Ego Trip and VH1’s Miss Rap Supreme seeks “a woman who will put female rap back on the map.” Is the next Kim, Foxy or Eve in the Fembassy Hotel? Rock Daily is watching, ma.

A Supreme Hour In Three Sentences: At a pageant-style throwdown, MC Serch and new co-host, L.A. pioneer Yo-Yo, narrow down twenty-five finalists to ten, who are escorted to the Fembassy Hotel where they immediately start fighting. Two teams have to rhyme for “for the sisters around the way” — a beauty salon, some sorority sisters and some actual “sisters” in a convent. None of the ten rappers swear in front of the nuns and thus this week’s Best Week Ever is probably gonna have to replay that video of the pug that thinks it’s a blender.

Supreme Beef!: Competitor Khia is a seasoned rapstess behind 2002’s Billboard-storming ode to anilingus, “My Neck, My Back.” Miss Cherry loudly airs her concerns about competing against with someone with a Gold record, which unleashes an angry tantrum from Khia that, on our TV, was more bleeps than words. Later, ex-addict D.A.B. and poor sport Nicky2States start screaming at each other about the last challenge, and all is settled just like in the movies … with a rap battle full of wack pre-writtens!

Step Off!: Serch and Yo-Yo decided to send home Lionezz, the German-born gal whose stilted flow that didn’t exactly command anyone’s attention — lay off, English is her second language, ja? The fraulein femcee had to pack her bags even though Khia rhymed “respect me” with “respect me” approximately nine times in her sixteen-bar verse. Ugh … my neck, my brain!

Hey, Ladies!: The magic of TV cameras and alcohol already produced three separate instances of MC on MC kissing! That definitely did not happen in 8 Mile.
