Female rap pioneers
Salt-N-Pepa may not have a hit record on the charts at the moment, but the two
veterans are busy with other ventures, including a new sitcom that they are developing
together.
“We are developing
the sitcom together,” Pepa told AllHipHop.com. “It’s going
to be based on our lives.”
Both Salt and Pepa
will star in the untitled television show, which they are taking their time
to develop.
In 1994, they did
a pilot for a show titled “On Our Own,” which didn’t pan out.
“We are taking
our time. The people involved have a lot of energy and are ready to go,”
Salt said. Everything happens in time and timing is everything.”
After becoming
a born-again Christian almost two years ago, Salt teamed with former Kid-N-Play
rapper Christopher “Play” Martin, who also left secular music for
gospel and created “Rise,” a Hip-Hop gospel stage musical.
Salt will continue
exploring her spiritual side and plans on dropping an introspective album chronicling
her life.
“I’m
going to bring out [the album] under my own label with my husband,” Salt
said. “I don’t even want to say that it’s a gospel album.
“It’s more of my testimony, it’s what I been through in life until
now what god had has taught me.”
