‘Drop The Mic’: Method Man & Hailey Baldwin To Host Rap-Battle Series From James Corden

So a rapper and a model walk onto a stage … to host a new TBS show. The Turner cable net said today that Method Man and Hailey Baldwin will emcee Drop the Mic, a rap-battle competition series launching May 2 from executive producers James Corden, Ben Winston, Jensen Karp and Ed Thomas. The show is based on the popular segment from Corden’s CBS late-night show, which also launched Carpool Karaoke.



Drop the Mic will pit four stars from the worlds of entertainment, music, sports and pop culture against one another. At the end of each head-to-head battle, the studio audience will vote on the winner.

“Drop the Mic is a funny, authentic, high-energy series that brings together hip-hop, comedy and pop culture in a way we’ve never seen before,” said Michael Bloom, SVP Unscripted & Special Event Programming at TBS. “Method, Hailey, James, Ben and their team will make sure our celebrity competitors bring their ‘A’ game to the stage.”

True. Well, he is on The Breaks too. He really need another good show like on The Wire's status to really show off his acting chops.

This is probably just a easy paycheck for him. As long as he ain't c00ning it up like he did on that Red and Meth show

 

[TheRtist]

TBS cashing in on hip-hop....interesting.

 

[Bugsmoran]

It will probably be a watered down version of Eminem's Road to Total Slaughter

 

[Pinyapplesuckas]

hope Real Deal is on it.

 

[Deltron]

Ain't nothing wrong with him hosting this show. But he does have a role on BETs new show Rebel.

Ya'll see this garbage! Culture Vulture 101, just disgusting. I'm not the biggest fan of that URL battle rap stuff but, I respect the fact those guys have been doing this for years. It's a shame someone else, not in the culture is going to make money off this and bring in a bunch of cornballs who have nothing to do, let alone know anything about battle rap.

This isn't battle rap!
