Is BET getting enough credit for their positive programming? I don’t think they are…
In the past, they’ve been accused of not representing black women right because of all the booty shaking videos with half naked chicks, however, over the last couple of years they’ve been cleaning up their act. They’ve introduced a ton of new family-friendly scripted shows while ditching reality TV altogether. [Even though their competitors like VH1 were capitalizing big time off of that area.]
This summer, they’re jumping back into the reality TV/docuseries realm, with four unscripted shows, including Hip Hop Sisters. On the show Lil Mama pairs up with legends like her mentor MC Lyte, The Lady of Rage, Yo Yo, Smooth, and Monie Love as they try to jump back into the rap game and go toe-to-toe with hip hop’s new generation of artists.
HIP HOP SISTERS is a docudrama following the relaunch of six female rappers’ careers. MC Lyte, The Lady of Rage, Yo Yo, Smooth, Monie Love and Lil Mama join forces and declare themselves the Hip Hop Sisters. Their goal is to reclaim their titles as the Queens of Hip Hop — as they manage their drama-filled personal careers and lives and search for the next great female MC.

I have a feeling this will be a huge shade fest and The Lady of Rage is a queen.
