Since “Insecure” ended, Issa Rae‘s been working on a new show dripping on HBO Max. The project is called “Rap Sh!t” and was developed with Miami rap duo City Girls as co-executive producers. The story takes place in Miami and is similar to how JT and Young Miami connected.
According to Variety, “The series follows two estranged high school friends from Miami, Shawna (Aida Osman) and Mia (KaMillion). The two reunite to form a rap group, forming a new bond along the way. The series also stars Jonica Booth, Devon Terrell and RJ Cyler.” Rae wrote the pilot and collaborated with showrunner Syreeta Singleton on the finale. “Rap Sh!t” drops July 21.
