BET Rewind: Remembering ‘Rap City’

What a night of reminiscing with former hosts of “Rap City”, comedian Chris Thomas and the always gorgeous Big Lez.

What a night of reminiscing with former hosts of “Rap City”, comedian Chris Thomas and the always gorgeous Big Lez.

They took us down memory lane. As he was the very first host of “Rap City”, Chris talked about the very beginning. Along with his talent of doing “spot on” impressions, his comedic timing made “Rap City” the show to watch.


Big Lez came along at a time when women were just entering into the rap/hip hop world. She was the only woman to host “Rap City”, and she did it with style. She was already a sought after choreographer and dancer. Remember her from the silhouette on “A Different World?” Yessir! That was Big Lez!
