Summary

Will and Chris meet the American rapper, performance artist, poet and activist Mykki Blanco. The persona of Mykki Blanco - a teenage girl who wants to be a rapper - was created by Michael Quattlebaum as an online video project in 2010. Since then she has evolved into a pioneering hip hop artist and trailblazing queer icon. Will and Chris find out how the persona has changed his life, why he decided against transitioning and they discuss racial prejudice within the LGBT media. Plus - Will’s been babysitting, the talents you’d love to have and Chris discusses his failed attempt to become an escort.
