Season 2 is textured and raw in the same way that Starz’s “P-Valley” is such a thrilling watch.
Season 2 of Rap Sh!t is even better than the show’s first, with the jokes getting funnier as the series progresses and the cast blooms underneath the cameras and neon lights. Characters whose time was unfortunately brief in Season 1 are finally able to shine here.
The glow-up is real in Season 2, and there's still much more room for Rap Sh!t to grow.
Rap Sh!t suffers a bit from some broad gags and the phone-centric gimmickry we cited earlier, but at its heart is a story of two friends taking on the patriarchal world of hip hop, and that story is one we’re eager to watch.
Her [Issa Rae's] stamp as a creator is growing. “Rap Sh!t” will resonate with the audience who kept asking “What’s Next?” after “Insecure” wrapped last year.
While season two is still a very enjoyable watch, we'd be lying if we said we didn't miss the first round's emphasis on levity.
The new HBO Max comedy Rap Sh!t does not run away from its characters’ screen dependence, but rather makes that a core part of both its substance and its style. It doesn’t always work, but it’s an interesting Insecure follow-up for creator Issa Rae and showrunner Syreeta Singleton.
