The final episode, titled “Rhyme and Punishment,” focuses on the theme of law enforcement in America and its relationship with rap. That episode will include appearances from Bobby Shmurda, Fivio Foreign, Maino, and Killer Mike.

The City Girls episode, which looks at female rappers and sexuality, is also set to feature Megan Thee Stallion, Rapsody, and Saweetie. Cardi B and Doja Cat will make appearances in the episode on Coi Leray. Hulu describes the series as a “deep dive into current events that untangles important subjects and offers a view of the world from an artist’s perspective.”

RapCaviar Presents was creative directed by Karam Gill, with Steve Rivo as showrunner. The episodes were directed by Gill, Quan Lateef-Hill, Peter J. Scalettar, Wendy J.N. Lee, Farah X, and Mandon Lovett.
