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: Too $hort will be the first to tell you (over and over again… over the course of twenty-five years) that he truly knows the inner workings of women. So the ladies had to respond to his sixteen bars, or as Lady Twist put it: “Now is the time to get vulgar and ignorant.” Then Ghostface Killah showed up and hung with the spazzin’-out ladies for no particular reason — but who are we to complain about a Ghostface cameo?
Supreme Beef!: Chiba and Byata were at it again, mostly arguing about kitchen b.s. and talking enormous amounts of trash behind each others backs. And, oh yeah, Byata had a dream that Chiba was the devil! Then the argument devolved into an exchange that surely rang bells with both the sex-crazed VH1 execs and the race-obsessed Ego Trip staff: “You kissed me!” “I kissed the devil!” “Whose skin is white?”
Step Off!: Nothing really shocking in a show mostly dedicated to showing how German MC Lionezz was less than wunderbar. She dropped a snoozy sixteen-bar verse about how women rule the world after an episode full of nonsensical metaphors (”Fellas running after me like I’m walking a dog!”). Auf Wiedersehen!
Hey Ladies: The girls went diving for some cash and the censors discretely blurred out Rece Steele’s ass-crack! Pretty stupid for a show about double-standards — anyone who remembers short-lived VH1 reality show The Rock Life with famous mooch Cisco Adler knows that there was maybe twenty collected minutes of footage in that entire series that didn’t have his ass-crack.
