Jim Jones does deserve the credit for taking hip-hop to Broadway with his stage play Hip-Hop Monologues: Inside the Life and Mind of Jim Jones (view video clips), rather than own up to the fact he might like stage plays, Jones is instead just saying he is doing it as a potential revenue stream and hopes other rappers follow in his footsteps. Jim Jones recently told the Associated Press:

“Even though when I get on camera you think that (I’m) a crafty individual, but I’m all about the money and whatever it takes for me to get that money, I’m going to master that. I should hope I’ve created a new lane for rappers who are woody enough to complete a task like this to go into a whole other form of revenue.“

If there is money to be made then we should expect a Danity Kayne Broadway production produced by Diddy anytime soon. Followed by a Pimpin Curly musical with 50 Cent.
