It’s gonna be a helluva week.

Day 2
“Porn & Hip Hop go together like Peanut Butter & Jelly”

So just how “Hip Hop” is porn these days?

See…there’s a select few of you that for some reason think the “backpack” rappers and their fans don’t like sex. Just because Mos Def doesn’t rap about skeeting on chicks doesn’t mean he’s asexual. Common may talk that good lovey-dovey-gushy-mushy “are your eyes still green girl” nonsense, but don’t think for one moment he wouldn’t like to bury his head in between Vanessa Blue’s melons.

We can run down the names of rappers who have found their way into porn. Most don’t actually participate but people like Snoop, G-Unit, Luke, Kurupt, Mack 10, Son Doobie of Funkdoobiest (and he actually was the star in his porno), and numerous others are seen in flicks you have to take notice. How many times have you seen a porn flick with a beat that you found yourself nodding your head to?

Okay…maybe not. But you get the picture.

As for the fans of Hip Hop, let’s just say you should prowl your favorite Hip Hop message board and see how many zshare links you can find for Pinky, Cherokee, Lacey Duvalle and others. Porn is that dirty little secret everyone has, but nobody wants to share amongst people they don’t know.

Try this If you haven’t already - the next time you have a pow wow with your friends and are discussing how Lupe Fiasco owes his life to A Tribe Called Quest, toss in some random statement referring to Jake Steed’s interlude on The Chronic 2001. I’m sure you’ll get a few chuckles. Use it as a bridge to say something about your pops' old school porn collection (the ones with the HUGE boxes that no parent could hide) and watch how many of your friends react. I’m sure that someone will name drop some porn chick and you should see everyone let down their guard to discuss their favorite porn stars.

Speaking of Hip Hop and porn. How can you argue that porn isn’t Hip Hop when this guy show up..

DJ Premier: “What are you doing here?”
Me: “What are YOU doing here?”
DJ Premier: “I’ve been going for the last eight years.”
Me: “Excuse the hell outta me!”

Now if that’s not Hip Hop then I don’t know what is. Let’s not forget that Kanye West has professed his love for porn on numerous occasions. It’s the bastard stepchild of Hip Hop culture so regardless of how much you want to say that the two have nothing in common, porn is still part of the culture’s family.

On the flip side of all this, what do you think porn stars listen to? That corny ass elevator music they bang to? Or how about that wack ass homemade rap track from Booty Talk 913 (seems like they are never ending)? You know what? Let’s find out.

As the Road Warriors are joined by the third member, Anthony Springer Jr aka Droz, we make a beeline down to Vanessa Blue’s booth (where Anthony would lock down this interview that made all your jaws drop), there stood Sinnamon Love.

Sinnamon Love is the fetish porn chick who’s been around since the early 90’s. Over 250 films line her resume and she’s been nominated for AVN awards as a director. I approach her 5’3”, 115lbs, 34D-24-36 frame as Dave asks to snap a few shots of her. He mentions I’m the Editor-In-Chief of HipHopDX. Instead of the usual “Oh…that’s cool!” response we’ve been getting, Sinnamon seems a little more enthused at the concept. So here goes nothing…

“I heard you are a Hip Hop head,” I ask.

“Man…I love Hip Hop,” she responds.

I’m waiting for her to say “50 Cent is great” or talk about how good Soulja Boy is. Instead this is what I get…

“I love The Roots! Talib Kweli is dope and I’m a big Little Brother fan!”

Say what???

Sinn goes on for a good 20 min talking Hip Hop with me as a line of fans in the background are huffing and puffing. They don’t give a rat’s ass about how she’s friends with ?uestlove or what her favorite album is. They don’t know that she lurks on the Okayplayer message boards constantly. She is definitely what one would call a “Hip Hop Head.” But none of these porn convention fans care, they want to fulfill their perverted desires of taking a pic with a porn star. Who could blame them? Sinnamon continues to pour out her love for Hip Hop in between flicks and then begins talking her love for journalism. Apparently, she’s had bylines in a few mags and has interviewed artists such as dead prez. Sinnamon talks about wanting to get back into writing and would love to interview many artists about things our readers would enjoy reading about. Continued on page 3 »
