There's nothing tricky about it. Buoyed by the show's solid ratings, MTV announced it would bring back its hip-hop reality strip Run's House for a second season.

The series, which features Rev. Run (a.k.a. Joey Simmons) of the classic Hollis, Queens rap triumvirate

Run DMC, is averaging a 2.1 rating for viewers 12-34 through four episodes, according to Nielsen Media Research data. Overall, some 32 million viewers have tuned in.

Season one draws to a close Nov. 18 at 10:30 p.m., with the second season set to follow some time in 2006.
