VH1’s Hip-Hop Dating Show: You Guys Called It
To think I could have gone out with Pepa! Or was the fix in all along?
After a double-date disaster with one of Pepa’s bad-boy love interests, Salt embarks on a quest to find her fellow MC the perfect man. Salt sums up her opinion of Pep’s love life by sighing, “Pep and men … good Lord” while Pep squirms under her pal’s judgments. The two hire a professional matchmaker who interviews half a dozen men, all of whom Salt rejects, instead choosing her friend, a youth pastor, as Pep’s suitor. In the end, Pep fires Cheryl as a matchmaker, sticking to her conviction. “I believe in my record ‘Whatta Man.’ I want ‘Whatta Man.'”
I may not have made the final cut, but at least Pep also turned down Salt’s friend, a chubby, uptight pastor who won’t give it up until there’s a ring on that shit. It’s a famous pop-rapper, fella. God would understand.
