Episode Notes
Khia was disqualified at the beginning of Episode 2 due to her use of a pre-written song ("Respect Me") for her 16-bar song. Lionezz was brought back as a result.
In episode 7, Chiba admitted to Byata And Rece Steele that she uses pre-written songs in the competition, but stays original when told to do so. This caused even more tension with the girls. All the girls became suspicious of Chiba when everyone stumbled on their raps, but Chiba did not.
Although Chiba won the challenge, she was eliminated in episode 7 after being in the bottom two with Byata.
In a mixed review, Common Sense Media's Melissa Camacho gave the series two stars, calling it "an iffy viewing choice for tweens" though she liked that it gave "mature teens a chance to learn more about the rap and hip-hop culture".[4] Anastasia Kotsosavas of the Philadelphia Weekly called Miss Rap Supreme "equally cheesetastic" to its predecessor The (White) Rapper Show. She said she anticipated a mix of Flavor of Love and American Idol but found a rap version of Paradise Hotel.[5]
The Detroit News television critic Adam Graham thought that people who liked White Rapper's "playful take on hip-hop culture" would like Miss Rap Supreme's scenes. He cited how the competitors in the debut episode were given the task of rapping for some "sisters" who turned out to be nuns and sorority sisters.[6] Malcolm X. Abram of the Akron Beacon Journal thought that although the hosts MC Serch and Yo-Yo genuinely hoped to identify a skilled woman rapper, the contestant Khia had a "bad attitude and lack of talent".[7]
