BET+’s inaugural unscripted series American Gangster: Trap Queens is coming back for a second season and Lil Kim has been tapped to narrate, following Jeezy in season one.
The first five episodes will be released on Thursday (January 14), telling the real-life stories of some of the most notorious female gangsters. This batch will focus on the stories of Perrion Roberts, Brandi Davis, Dwen Curry, Tiffani Rose Peak and Shauntay Henderson – whose rap sheets range from grand larceny to bank and wire fraud and drug trafficking.
In a statement, the show’s executive producer Frank Sinton promised a wide range of topics for the show’s return.
