The miniseries "Salt-N-Pepa" follows the story of Queensborough Community College students Cheryl "Salt" James (G.G. Townson) and Sandra "Pepa" Denton (Laila Odom) as they fall into the world of rap and hip hop, after recording for a song for their friend Hurby Azor (Cleveland Berto).

Salt-N-Pepa made a huge impact in hip hop by being one of the first all-female rap groups, changing the look of hip hop and unafraid to talk about sex and share their thoughts on men. Salt-N-Pepa became the first female rap act to go platinum and experienced ground-breaking success with multiple awards, including a Grammy, paving the way for all female rappers to follow.
