Rap Shit HBO Cast

When Shawna is not doing her day job as an aspiring rapper at the front desk of a hotel in Miami, she writes and performs under a pseudonym and a mask. She does a freestyle rap on Instagram Live one night with Mia, a single mother who works multiple jobs, and the video goes viral.

Along with showing Shawna and Mia navigating the music industry, the show also emphasises the value of female friendship, achieving dreams, and the actual challenges faced by women entering the hip-hop industry, such as misogyny. Expect the show to address the criticisms levelled at prominent female rappers in the music industry, like City Girls and Cardi B.
