After a great run in its first season, Rap Sh!t season 2 comes on the tail end of summer 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).
So what happens next in this hip-hop coming-of-age story? Here’s everything we know about Rap Sh!t season 2.
