Abstract

ABSTRACTVH1’s Love & Hip-Hop: Hollywood (LHHH) season two features the coming out narrative of cast member and rap artist Miles “Siir Brock [SIC].” In this essay, we interrogate the production of the coming out narrative as a cultural text constrained by ideologies, material conditions, and historical contexts. We are interested in critiquing the commodification of Black queerness, masculinity, and sexuality via the conceptual lens of disidentification. In so doing, we engage with what we argue are fleeting moments of transgression from dominant scripts by problematizing the show’s representations of the aesthetics of queerness.
