True Hollywood Stories: Rapper Wives airs on E! tomorrow (May 13), giving a candid look on hip-hop’s family men and their relationships with their leading ladies.
The show will profile a number of prominent rappers’ significant others, including DMX, Mos Def, Paul Wall, Luke Campbell, and Big Pun. “People automatically think a rapper is involved with drugs and hoes — anything negative — so automatically, they assume that a rapper’s wife is gonna be some kind of hoodrat,” Crystal Wall, wife of Paul Wall, told XXLMag.com. “The show is gonna expose the good, bad and the ugly, and also that the stereotypical idea of what a rapper’s wife would be is not necessarily the truth.”
As for what will be revealed about the rappers, Crystal says that in Paul’s case, “You see the family man side of him — just everything aside from the grills, the gold teeth, and the diamonds and all that,” she revealed. “You always see that side of him when he’s rapping, but when he’s home, he’s a whole different person. He’s just laid-back and chill, enjoying being with family. You might also see us at the gun range, so you’ll see our gangsta side, too.”
The show airs Wednesday (May 13) at 10 p.m. EST. - Devin Chanda

I have a feeling it’s going to be mostly ugly…

Going to a gun range may not be gangsta, but they now know something that most “gangstas” DON’T: How to properly aim and HIT what they’re shooting at.

I have very low hopes for this, knowing what I know about how Mos Def has allegedly handled his prior marriages, DMX being DMX, and Big Pun being no longer with us…
If Luke is anything like what we saw on that show none of us will admit to having watched, he should be fine though.
Fuck it, I will give it a try at least.

Jungle fever! Honkey with a Black woman. I am a Black Man I had lot of sex with Honkey Heffers before. Pall Wall is a average Rappers. Texas Rappers are my 2nd best. West Coast First! Rap-A-Lot is not good of Promoting good MCS. Longs as Lil J get paid. He don’t give a dam. That’s why you always see Texas Rappers going to a better Record Label or going Independent.

If you think that’s bad go read the Em on Jimmy Kimmel comment. Besides being ignorant I’m fairly confident he’s missing keys on his keyboard. What else could explain the way his shit comes out?

His speech impediments have spread to other parts of his body like a dumb ass case of the chickenpox.
Dude can’t be for real. I’m starting to think some kid wants so badly to be a XXL personality that he’s stooped to the lowest of heights & decided he’ll just be the dumbest motherfucker to ever comment.
Wish he’d find a better screen name though. I’d hate to be confused with that idiot.
Anyways, I hope that the show does shine a positive light on some rap dudes. There are still good guys out in the world. But, I have to cosign Pierzy, pobably not.

First of all matt
He started in with me weeks ago by calling me a bitch without provocation. Therefore fuck him. I don’t disrespect anyone on these threads by any means. So what I do to him, he’s aware of the reasoning.
& as for you, if your not concerned with any of this, why get involved? What, are you like Tyra Banks for those that can’t seem to speak up for themselves. This ain’t a talk show; it’s an internet thread. Just like anyone else, I’m free to say what I want as well.
He’s made personal threats to me previously, about what he’s going to do to me. Maybe if you came here more often, you’d know why I told him to stop commenting.
Funny, but not only did you NOT comment on the topic, but you spent a helluva lot of time telling other people what they should be doing.
Take your own advice, stick to the topic, & don’t worry about what other people are doing.
Thanks for your input, though.

@ matt
& just in case you you’re not aware; people in the comments section are generally referred to as “commentors”. The actual bloggers on the site are Bol, Mex, DP & Dallas, with a few others scantily thrown in. Just a little technicality I wanted to correct you on.
& as for you telling me that I’m no “real blogger”, lol. I beg to differ kind sir. Click my link & enjoy yourself.

MRS.GUDJUGG says:
I think that it is fair to let the women explain their part of the realtionship.I get so tied of these rappers tlking about shit they really don’t do.They never sold drugs,never probably ever went to jail.So when u see this type of shows you wonder.I give praise to all the STRONG INDEPENDENT BLACK WOMEN tht stick and put up with their messes.Its always seems tht the men take them for granted, so thats why some of the wives get presents and jewerly all the time.If I’m lieing watch the show and the woman who gets big gifts all the time, there are two options.#1. He really loves her and just want to spoil his girl.#2. He’s cheating and dont want her to leave because she will leave with half of everything.Unless she’s a STUPID BITCH and signed a PRENUP. I’m from the hood HIGHLAND PARK TENN-KEY and me and my girls wouldn’t put up wit a prenup and especially if we were wit cha wen he was down. PEACE MY OBAMAS.
