I read it was always supposed to be just a 1 season. I doubt Netflix wants to sink more money into this since it's production went way over budget and it didn't garner any awards chatter or critically acclaimed. But it really is the best looking show I've seen on Netflix though.

So, is there going to be another season? The way it ended could go either way.
My guess is that they wrote it with intentions of continuing, but Netflix hit them wit the

So they added that note about Rapper's Delight to close it out.

I really like the show, but mainly cuz of how they captured the era, but the writing and attention to detail could've used a lot of work.

Also, will there be a soundtrack for Part 2?

I need that Miguel song from the Dizzy Mango Technicolor scene. :patrice:

hmm, can't believe some of yall like part 2 better...the pacing, sets, characters, etc was much better in part 1. they tried to do too much with part 2, nothing had time to breathe and there were a lot of dangling pieces. i'm actually going to be upset if there isn't a season 2. edit: seems like it was never meant to have a season 2...in that case fukk this show and the breaks, both aren't delivering

Petty Vandross.. fukk Yall
why Cadillac kept calling shaolin fagtastic was he really gay cuz mylene alluded to it also?
Calling somebody a faq in the 70s/80s was a huge diss that could get your ass killed..
It's similar to telling another dude to "suck your dikk" or " you acting like a bytch" from the 90s-17..

Watching the last episode and I fukks with the jewels they droppin in the last music scene. I could've done without Dizzy's gay story-line as well as Mylene shyt but I overstand why both were there. As a hip hop head if I had to watch the whole series again I will.
