- TriviaGrowing up with a famous parent isn't easy, as the children often have to work hard to emerge from their parents' shadows and gain independence - especially if they want entertainment careers of their own. "Growing Up Hip Hop" documents the lives of a tight-knit group of friends, most of whom have at least one parent who is famous. Angela Simmons, the daughter of Run-D.M.C.'s Rev Run, is a model and fashion designer; Romeo Miller has followed in the footsteps of his father, Master P, in becoming a musician; entrepreneur Damon "Boogie" Dash is the son of former record executive Damon Dash; singer Kristinia DeBarge, the daughter of James DeBarge, struggles to choose between family and fame; TJ Mizell, a DJ whose father was Run-D.M.C. member Jam Master Jay, views Angela as family since both of their dads were in Run-D.M.C.; and aspiring singer Egypt Criss gets her talent from both mom and dad - Pepa from Salt-N-Pepa and Treach from Naughty by Nature.

Correcting the Title
The title of this show is quite misleading. 'Growing up' generally denotes maturing, moving past childish outbursts, learning to speak with a modicum of clarity and intelligence and truly becoming an adult. It takes only one viewing of this show to realize that this show truly ought to be titled "Aging Hip Hop" as in actual fact that is what is depicted, a group of individuals who may well be 'aging hip hop' but are most certainly NOT 'growing up', in any commonly understood sense of the word. Fighting, screaming at each other, using profanity to excess, it's obvious that their cultural and intellectual growth came to a screaming halt when they achieved a chronological age of somewhere around 8 and no more than 12 years of age. As another reviewer stated, they truly 'dumb down society'.
