“Salt-N-Pepa” (** out of four) was a superficial biographical drama about the legendary hip-hop group (G.G. Townson and Laila Odom) who were former Sears workers and nursing students in Queens who decided to embark on a career in the male-dominated rap industry and did their best to persevere through-out all their ups-and-downs together. Typical Lifetime biography moves fast but is cluttered and mediocre. It doesn’t help that the two actresses don’t look at all like Salt-N-Pepa and don’t expect to see much here about the equally important group member Spinderella. Smashing musical number at the end is the highlight of film.
