Damn Russel

So flipping channels between local news, 9/11 hearings, and videos I caught a commercial for a �hip hop clothing� store, in which Russel Simmons makes the following claim:

�[Store Name] is the basis of the Hip Hop revolution.�

Is it that bad Russel? Come on man� fine wife, lots of money, household name. Did you really have to shit on yourself and your �culture� in a low budget commercial for a really wack store? Not that doing it for a decent store would have been any better.

I�m disappointed to no end. Yes, I know he�s the money man of hip hop, but damn. I understand packaging and selling a �revolution� when it�s the only way to eat, but this man is well fed. Damn, Russ.

Damn.

Well, at least you're trying to get people to vote.
