Hammer Time

I lost my hair in the bankruptcy

MC Hammer has found a home for his reality show on A&E. The show will be a docu-series about none other than MC Hammer, his wife and kids…so basically it’s a graduated version of Coolio’s Rules. J.D. Roth, the executive producer of the show said, “Here’s a dad with five kids, married to the same woman for more than 23 years, living in the same place where he grew up and going to church every Sunday…He’s had his ups and downs, and it’s what makes him such a character you root for.”

I would normally be concerned with another rapper doing a reality series, but considering it’s being produced by J.D. Roth (who produces Biggest Loser) and it’s airing on A&E, I feel like it will actually be watchable…Plus, it’s MC Hammer!!! He was such a big part of my childhood…I remember cuttin’ major rug at our school dance for “U Can’t Touch This” and shakin’ my ass like it was going out of style. And just for that, I’m going to give his show a chance.

But seriously…I can’t believe I used to think this was hot:

    Hammer is one of the few famous people I’ve actually ever met and talked to (this was back in 2001 when I worked for the now defunct Tower Records and he was promoting a new album) and he was really, REALLY sweet and kind. Very down to earth and not at all wrapped up in ego… I actually hope it goes well for him.

    Oh yeah, and I used to think he had a really REALLY fine ass… not to mention… well… damn, I guess I’d have to admit that I once saw the “Pumps And A Bump” video… the man was F-I-N-E! :)

    love, J-Mo :)
