About this show
MC Hammersmith is posh West London's leading freestyle rapper, with 500 million views online. He presents his new show: Ice Ice Nepo Baby. When MC Hammersmith turned 18, his parents (MC Hammer and Vanilla Ice) shockingly revealed he was adopted. His two famous dads helped him ascend to the top of the rap game. He now embarks on a quest to find his biological family, the only way he knows how: by performing an hour of improvised hip hop comedy based on audience suggestions. Lightning-fast raps, explosively funny rhymes, and utterly captivating genealogical investigation!

The amount of belly laughs and shrieks of laughter from the sold-out crowd could have blown the roof off the venue.
— The Student (5 out of 5 stars)
Hammersmith is wonderfully self-effacing about his peculiar brand of rap stardom, using a series of witticisms that play upon his middle-class upbringing. 4.5 Stars
