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 Four Sentences: Director John Singleton stops by for “Hip-Hop Hamlet” if only to help us all cringe at what a stupid exercise this is — “Whether ’tis nobler in the domepiece to suffer the ballin’ and fallin’ of some outrageous fortune.” Cherry brags that she’s in three upcoming films and then blows it. Once split into teams, the girls worked out a dance routine at the famous Lulu Washington Dance Theatre. Team Lady Twist lost since the heavyset Twist was out of breath, the scrappy Bree was a showboater, but everyone learned their hot new dance that evokes images of fun things like sweeping the floor.
Supreme Beef!: The dismissive, cocky Chiba continues to just piss everyone off — the tension between her and Byata is as thick as ever, and Rece thinks she’s phony. The always diplomatic Lady Twist tries her damnedest to squash all the house beef and mediate the nonsense. When no one pays attention to her she just gets drunk and, if we are to believe VH1 editors, passes out in the hallway.
Step Off!: The girls have to dedicate at least four of their 16 challenge bars to in-house drama. Chiba, who logically would have the most beef to air out, ignores talking about the house directly, lets her emotions trip her up and then — indignity of indiginities! — lets her sash fall off! Lady Twist rhymed a big group hug which Yo-Yo thought was emotionless, and Serch didn’t really understand since he didn’t have the benefit of watching these girls bicker on a tightly edited VH1 package like we do. Maybe because another week of Chiba means another week of great drama, Lady Twist was kindly told to step off.
2 Hype!: Honestly, catch the re-run if only to watch Serch and Yo-Yo doing the Kid ‘N Play kick step!
