Jadakiss promotes Twitter

Jadakiss x Twitter. I think it’s time that Twitter start making money off their site. Maybe start an “urban” channel with all the MCs and R&B stars tweeting it up. And now even the hardest of MCs co-signs Twitter. In a recent radio interview Jadakiss states:

“I was doing satellite radio and Angela Yee. She was like, “Kiss, you got to get on Twitter” I say ‘What’s Twitter?! I signed up right there. I got bout a thousand followers. Now, I’m up to prolly like six, seven, eight thousand followers. So, yeah. Diddy is on Twitter, Shaq. All type of people. Twitter is poppin! The NBA is on Twitter!”

So what if Jada is a little late to the game. You can check him out on his Twitter name “TheRealKiss.” And if you ever have a bad day or are just feelin a little down in the dumps well then head over to Diddy’s motivational speaker Twitter. Although we all know it’s his assistant tweetin it up while feeding Diddy and Cassie cheesecake. Via: RR

Jadakiss denies getting paid for Coogi song placement

Jadakiss x Coogi. Jadakiss was getting heat from mainstream press like Gawker for his overt use of Coogi sweaters in his tribute song “Letter to B.I.G.” Of course to us hip-hop fans we know Coogi and B.I.G. go hand in hand but Gawker stated that Coogi actually paid Jadakiss “tens of thousands of dollars” to plug Coogi in the song and to wear the signature sweatshirt during the video.

Jadakiss quickly responded to these allegations stating on HipHopDX:

If Coogi came in after the song was already done and wanted to get involved, that’s a different story. If you know anything about B.I.G., he had a million Coogis. My whole time around him, he almost [always] had one on. So that [rumor] is a crock of sh*t.

Yeti says: It’s been awhile since this issue has come up but everyone familiar with the hip-hop game knows that brands and product placement is all part of the movement. From Run DMC and Adidas to Busta and his Courvoisier. Even if Jada did accept money, well then good for him. Coogi is a natural fit for this video as a tribute to B.I.G.

Jadakiss wants to be in the cartoon business

In a recent interview with Complex, Jadakiss stated his desire to get into Hollywood and the acting buisness. But unlike the typical rapper-turned-actor, Jada specifically wants to get into the voice-acting business with cartoons. Jadakiss stated “You hear my voice? I have a unique voice. I could be on “Family Guy,” or the voice of Shrek, or like, Adult Swim. Yea, I’ll take that all day.”

Maybe he can be on Kanye’s new puppet show “Alligator Boots” because if his new album does not sell, Jada might really be needing a new job to pay the bills. His money from Diddy can only last so long.
