Really, I don't get it. Does it matter if a fucking rap guy is in a porn movie? To me this adds zero stroke value. I find it hard to believe that Snoop Doggs' Hustler Vid moved 120,000 pieces (isn't 5,000 pieces shipped basically a hit?). Is this 100,000 plus figure on the level? To people really give a fuck if Run-DMC are pulling a double anal?

From Bet.com: NO ONE WOULD’VE ever thought of seeing an adult film star grab the mic and spit a freestyle over the latest hot rap instrumental. On the other hand, who would ever had imagined that a rap artist would ever appear on the cover of an adult film like Treach formally of Naughty By Nature. Just like how Rock n’ Rollers were assimilated into the cloaked galaxy of flesh peddling on video, hip-hop is well on it’s way to becoming a breeding ground for potential skin flick stars and vice versa.
“Rap has taken over as the trendy new look when it comes to video making,” says Vivid Girl Jenna Jameson who has locked down the adult film industry as a performer (homegirl even has her name trademarked) and made a cameo in Eminem’s “Without Me” video. “Hot girls are always needed as eye candy and who better to use than some of our beautiful nasty pornstars! Not only are our girls hot, but they all have a following. Besides it’s always cool to be hanging with a pornchick..makes ya look like a player.” Big time rappers like Snoop Dogg, Ice T and Lil Jon and The Eastside Boyz are stampeding into studios to hustle sex tapes while Triple X personalities like Heather Hunter, Spanteneeus Xtacee and India are all a part of a new movement where doing the nasty isn’t enough; they want to rhyme about it too.
Though the traces of hip-hop and porn can be followed back to a publicized collaboration between DJ Polo (of the group Kool G Rap and DJ Polo) and Ron Jeremy in 1996 called “Freak Of The Week.” Many people don’t know but before then, DJ Yella of NWA made a porn flick under the name “Tha Kidd” back in early 1994. “I set about to change things,” Yella told AVN.com. “By putting my name on it and associating it with rap, I’m bringing porn to the mainstream. I’m opening it up so that people can go get this at regular stores, not just at adult bookstores.”
Male Rap artists like Snoop Dogg raked in loads of cash with his signature video line through Hustler Video titled, “Snoop Dogg’s Doggystyle.” The video quickly became a huge success selling over 150,000 copies worldwide. After winning the “Adult Video News Award” for “Top Selling Tape of 2001,” Snoop graciously responded, “I want to thank y’all for accepting me in yall’s world. And I’m gonna come back with some more. Believe that.” Snoop is already set to release a sequel. Naturally, other rap stars jumped in like Rapper turned actor Ice T with his video “Ice T’s Pimpin’” and Lil Jon & The Eastside Boyz newly inked deal with porn powerhouse Video Team for their line. “It’s only natural that Rap artists get into this industry because a lot of the music is about sex, drugs, women, pimping hoes and that’s what our industry represents,” explains porn star Sinnamon who has made her way into the world of Rap’s more artsy cousin, Spoken Word. “Why not move into it?”
Adult film legend Heather Hunter made her move into the arena about twelve years ago when she started her New York based public access show “Wildstyle” where she would have hip-hop notables on as guests while women paraded around in the and out of the background. “My whole thing came from music,” Heather told BET.com. ” I’m a hip-hop music person so if I’m going to be freaky I’m going to still keep it hip-hop. You can’t tell me I can’t have both that’s not how the world works. Society is changing and the proof is in the pudding.”
