Is 50 Cent going to be featured on the second season of her show? As a wife of a professional basketball player, what does she think of the Basketball Wives television show? Does La La have some behind the scenes footage of Carmelo Anthony‘s trade to the Knicks? What does it mean to act like a lady and think like a man? Does La La always like to be pampered or is she a real down to Earth woman at heart?

Does La La have Carmelo wrapped around her little finger? I could think of lesser women to be wrapped around…I’m just saying!

Twenty-five years after crack cocaine ravaged American cities, a new VH1 Rock Doc explores how the drug also transformed popular culture, especially hip-hop. The latest addition to the Emmy-winning franchise, “Planet Rock: The Story of Hip Hop and the Crack Generation,”premieres Sunday, September 18 at 10PM* on VH1.

Narrated and executive produced by Ice-T, “Planet Rock: The Story of Hip Hop and the Crack Generation” is the first documentary to focus specifically on the connections between crack and hip-hop. Based primarily on the first-person accounts of four famous dealers-turned-rappers, the film also widens its lens at points to show how crack changed America culturally, socially and politically.  Using rare footage, photos, and animation, all set to the beats and rhymes of the iconic hip hop tracks of the day, the documentary explores how media hysteria, racism and political reaction produced policies and laws that have left us with the largest — and most disproportionately African-American — prison population in the world.

Crack first appeared in the early 1980s, but by 1986, it was raging through the inner cities of America like wildfire, leaving pain, grief, and death in its wake. With candid, never-before-seen interviews from survivors, including Snoop Dogg, Cypress Hill’s B-Real, and the Wu-Tang Clan’s RZA and Raekwon, “Planet Rock” examines the hardships young men encountered growing up in impoverished neighborhoods, which led many to deal crack cocaine as their only way out. This destructive drug not only provided an escape, but also paved the way for an entrance into hip-hop.

More than any other art form, hip-hop reflected and documented the crack epidemic. The chaos and madness of the crack phenomenon was fused with the sound and style of hip-hop during its formative years.  From the gold dookie chain to Gucci, many hip-hop artists were influenced by the look and fashion of infamous dealers like Azie Faison in Harlem, who is prominently featured in the documentary, along with FreewayRicky Ross, the Godfather of Crack in LA.  As hip-hop became increasingly popular, the fascination with crime and gangster culture, specifically the violence inherent in crack culture, became ingrained in the music. And soon the very kids dealing crack were turning their street tales into hit records. After serving hard time in jail, Snoop Dogg became the biggest rapper of his day; after a bullet in the back nearly killed him, B Real went legit with Cypress Hill; and after crafting their business model on the crack hustle, RZA and Raekwon turned the Wu Tang Clan into a hip hop empire.  As journalist Cheo Choker reflects, “it’s fascinating to think that Jay Z, a global icon who had better seats at President Obama’s inauguration than Jesse Jackson, was once a New York City crack dealer.”

“Planet Rock: The Story of Hip Hop and the Crack Generation” is the newest installment in the Emmy Award winning VH1 Rock Doc franchise.  The VH1 Rock Doc “Soul Train: The Hippest Trip in America” was recently nominated in the Outstanding Arts & Culture Programming category for this year’s News & Documentary Emmy Award. VH1 Rock Docs are feature-length documentaries that tell unique stories of artists and music from a wide range of genres, styles and musical perspectives. “Planet Rock: The Story of Hip Hop and the Crack Generation,” will be available online following the on-air premiere on September 18.

The series stars Jim Jones’ girlfriend Chrissy Lamkin, Fabolous’ girlfriend Emily Bustamante, emerging rapper (and ex-girlfriend of Joe Budden) Somaya Reece, songstress (and ex-wife of Swizz Beatz) Mashonda Tifrere, and R&B veteran Olivia.

In the midst of the cast’s antics on the show, someone who you can count on to be a scene-stealer is Nancy Jones, Jim Jones’ spirited mother. You’ll see a photo of her below with Mona Scott showing off her new t-shirt that reads: I’m a Psychotic B*tch…  Awesome.

Each woman’s storyline is a bit different, and of course there will be plenty of drama, drama and more drama on Love & Hip Hop! Mashonda, who has undoubtedly dealt with her own reality drama the past couple of years, talked with RadioPlanet.tv about what we can expect from the show.

RadioPlanet.tv: You’ve been in the public eye as a performer, you’ve had some unfortunate circumstances surrounding your personal life that have been public, and now you’re going to be under a microscope with this show. Are you prepared for it?

Mashonda: I feel that with my personal relationship issues, I’ve been very in the public with it, so I’m kind of used to it. I definitely have a thicker skin than ever I did before, and I know who I am. I don’t really think taht much can really bother me at this point. I also know the way I behaved on camera, so hopefully it’ll come across too. [laughs]

RadioPlanet.tv: So you can’t really blame editing…

Mashonda: No, you can’t. So, we’ll see…

RadioPlanet.tv: What do you think people will see in the relationships?

Mashonda: In general? They’re gonna think that love and Hip Hop is a lot to deal with. They’re gonna probably feel like it’s a combination of somewhat disaster. They’re gonna know for sure that it’s not all glitz and glam, there’s a lot of pain involved. It’s very real.  We don’t sugar coat it, it’s very real, and you really get to see the situations we have to deal with as women, behind the scenes.

Love & Hip Hop debuts on VH1 on March 14 at 10:30pm EST!!

Danger got on stage to speak and wouldn’t get off, so Poprah had to intervene. Then Poprah took Danger to the red carpet to give her a chance to speak on all the rumors surrounding her recent interviews about her family issues, Ray J and other things… and all hell broke loose!

I haven’t been much of a Poprah fan thus far, but I have to give her credit for asking the real questions we’ve all been wanting to ask. After all, she’s been doing her thing independently, so she’s not in danger [no pun intended] of losing a job over someone’s legal team complaining about yet another bizarro interview from Danger.

OMFG and WOW! lmao!
