Ever since Snoop Doggy Dogg started making pornos it seems like all the other rappers want to become involved as well. Does this set the business back or does it help gain mainstream popularity.
Basically Snoop directed 2 pornos, in between scenes they would show a music video with him smoking weed with girls dancing in his living room. Snoop by no means ever got into any action.
I think it says more about where 'rap' is going than about where porn is in society.

The Sexpert aka Necro,
Try using the 'Caps Lock' key on the left side of your keyboard so you can type in upper and lower case, that way you won't be 'shouting' when you post.
id say rappers involvement with porn helps bring new customers to the porn scene. I might hear snoop is working with hustler on a porno and being a fan of snoop well at least during his death row days i might figure il pick it up when it comes out, so when i get there i pick up the snoop dvd and while im there i might notice balls deep and pick that up too.
Great topic. When Snoop did his thing first, I was excited as a retailer simply because I knew it might draw in people who normally would not be interested in pornography. And we probably snagged some regular customers from it. But now it borders on being overdone. Much like the music, it seems like the same shit over and over. You could even say the porn associated with these flicks are sampled much like the music they the artists are putting out. If they want to fuck some porn whoes-go for it, but spare us the film.
snoop dogg, treach from naughty by nature, suave, digital underground, too short, and ice-t are among the rappers who have made porn movies. with the exception of snoop dogg all these other rappers i mentioned are washed up has beens. they in my opinion did these movies in hopes of reviving their dormat careers. ice-t though deserves props for having a successful career in mainstream acting.
ie. pearl jam spawns creed spawns nickleback ie. reality TV shows - who wants to be a millionaire spawns survivor spawns the bachelor ie. spiderman spawns daredevil spawns hulk spawn underworld
funny thing is i was thinking the same thing this week as Sanders topic post!
i dont see how this could set the industry back though...

Many rappers have a tendency to outdo themselves (one up each other). So if Snoop does a Porno thats 2 star quality expect to see a rapper to do a 3 star porno that's more racy.
As a result, you will get better porno . Don't expect to see rappers that have a bad track record (those that get arrested alot) to start doing porno. More likely you will see the ones that have a borderline squeaky image (such as Luda) to produce porno.
The rappers know that they can't jump into this market full force. They would most likely dabble or ride the fence so they can make money and bounce from Rap to Porno, to R-rated films etc.
Another scenario is that rappers might just financially support a production company as an investment (and to hook up with some sexy,petite white females on the side). Then those rappers could hire some of their friends to run the production company while they (the rappers) tour or create other venture income projects. This would be the best option.
Don't expect rappers to start being the main actor in the DVDs. I doubt that will happen with big name rappers.
Worse case scenario, Alot of rappers start creating pornos with only white females. And, alot of black females (that don't like porno or the interracial results) attack Porno. This is possible, but very unlikely to happen.
Best case scenario, you will see some incredible porno produced by rappers. As a result, the other production companies would need to keep pace. This is more likely to happen.
I heard there still is discrimination in the porno marketplace. I get the feeling some producers are afraid that a majority of viewers will eventually prefer the big black guy doing the petite female. So that reduces work for the out of shape guy with a small dick (regardless what color he is).
I don't care who produces it . I just don't like seeing watered down porno. I love seeing the petite,innocent white females take on a tall well hung man (regardless if he's black or white). It's even better when the female plays a babysitter, a cheerleader, or a catholic school student (with the pleated skirt).
Try not to read between my lines. I'm just the average horny man thats a fan of Porno.
Capitalism: sometimes you get what you want, sometimes you get what other people think you want, and sometimes you get what you didn't know you wanted yet. Its corollary: sometimes you get what you didn't want because someone else does.
Is that profound? It came out too fast; I probably blew it.
I don't care; I just hope they cast more sexy black women. Whoa, deja vu.
If OutCast has a porno or is backing a porno company let me know. I'm interested.
Innocent-looking,petite females with a big bubble butt get a big thumbs up in my book. No matter what nationality they are . Toss in french braids, a tight stomach, big "puppy dog eyes" with a horny style ... Jeez did I jump off topic.
Maybe I missed it but I am surprised that nobody else has mentioned the dealt hat 50 Cent apparently signed with New Sensations/Digital Sin. Then again I don't really know what that was all about anyway. I'm not a rap fan so I didn't care that much about it and didn't read the press release New Sensations had on their site but 50 Cent associating himself in all of this is a big deal. As has been pointed all of the other rap-porn connections have come from mostly veterans of rap music. Fiddy is new.
Honestly, I don't care about the rappers getting involved with rap. I agree with the previous poster who said that this trend is more a statement on the current state of the rap industry as opposed to the adult industry. But if you look at all of the rap videos out there the jump to porn is highly logical and unsurprising.
Awhile back, I visited a cell phone store bordered on a middle class black neighborhood. When I went in I noticed that all the sales people where females with big round bubble butts. Mostly white slim females with round bubble butts. I felt like a kid in disneyland. Then I realized I better start thinking, before one of them talks me into buying something I don't need.
The moral to this story ... when you shop leave your hard-on in the car.
*****************
I HOPE more rappers create edgy Porno that all of us like. Possibly the type that removes a few of the restrictions that currently limit producers and directers of Porn.
Whoa, dude, you're threatening the entire economy with that kind of thinking.

There is good porn, and there is bad porn. I don't care who does it, it don't matter. No, you ain't gonna see a porn star fuck for real, but you get to see them interact with today top tallent. It ain't set nothing back. Stupid people set porn back!
Video Team just released a hip-hop/porn flick featuring Lil Jon recently...it is pretty good....these videos are specialty items for the music fans or fans of a rappers persona. Snoop Dogg is such a character that who wouldn't wanna buy one of his movies just to see how he interacts with porn stars. As the same with Lil Jon he is spanking girls,pouring lube on them,telling them what to do pretty funny stuff going on with it. Highly recommend that if you are into the porn/hip-hop thing defintely check out lil jons movie.
there is a magazine out similar like that called fish n grits where they profile pornstars with rappers....their second or third issue should be out soon...the first one featured method man,courtney divine,ice,and various other cuties
I just checked out Azz Fest 2. I can't believe the cast you got for it. They are hot! To see Ayana, Ice and Serena South in one booty flick is unbelievable!
Thanks sicknick very glad to see you liked the movie.......Azz Fest 3 should be out next month........just got to shoot one more scene for it....the cast so far is Dana Vespoli,Melanie Jagger,Kayla Marie (non anal scene),& Adora (who has a nice lil bubble butt. So keep an eye out for that one. And once again i appreciate the props and glad you enjoyed it.
Fish N Grits has a website (no, I'm not affiliated with it). That link is here.
I'm with everyone who says good porn is good and bad porn is bad. If rappers can make good porn, fine. But sadly, the majority are poorly done and look likes someone just walked around an extra-social party with a bad video camera. That's not good porn and to put that out with your name on it, you're just playin' yourself. I'm all for branching out, but seriously, if you suck, stick to your day job. And some of these "rappers" aren't even good at that.
No problem sick nick....the sex in lil jons vid is pretty good we contributed one scene to the video that i shot that has a 3 way with wesley pipes,jada fire,& india. highly recommend checking out lil jon & the eastside boyz american sex series when you get a chance
Some of the previous posters are viewing the world through rose colored rap glasses.I don't see why people automatically think rappers would make GREAT porn vids that have the competition running.It's kind of an insult to people like Stagliano,Leslie,Jordan,Powers(Ha!Just kidding)who have devoted years to honing their craft.Once again,porn,IMO doesn't require a degree to create,but there is a big difference when you see high quality porn made by people who care about the finished product and not just the ego stroke that comes with having their name on a porn dvd.
Frankly I avoid these vids,unless there is a type of sex act with a certain girl I like.I've been a member of blacksonblondes,and I appreciate big black dicks filling all holes of little white(or asian/latina,etc.)girls,but I could do without the nonstop ebonic play by play"Look at dat man,shit,he all up in her azzz,man,he all up in her,her ass cheeks,they,they taking dat cock all the way man,look at her man,she loving that man,.."SHUT UP!!!
I don't think it really does anything for the porn business at all. I think the main goal of this was to make the rappers look like a more acceptable "bad boy". While porn may not be as accepted and mainstream as people like to think it is more acceptable then say shooting people.
So I think most of the rappers are using it to help propel that image. The others are just using it to have some fun.
Plus lets face it a lot of music videos are one step removed from porn any way.
I like it cause it gives porn chicks the opportunity to meet and possibly fuck their favorite rappper!Yay! I know when all the 50 cent stuff was going on every one was having a lot of fun!
hehe my real name has made it into a few songs :)there is even a local band that has my name! hmmm if I could fuck 3 rappers. thats tough maybe Andre 3000,Nelly,Ludacris
I think most rappers get involved in Porn because for many of them the 'pimp' lifestyle of endless girls and sex is all part of the persona. In terms of the studios getting the backing of a rapper is an excellent means of reaching an audience who may not purchase porn usually. I know of people who enjoy porn but would never buy it until their favourite rapper appears in films then they instantly want a copy. It’s all about furthering the appeal of porn.
For the most part rappers only have limited involvement, most often acting as hosts. I am unaware of any films featuring known rappers having sex on screen, many are simply their to shift units through association.
However there is one former hip-hop star who’s a genuine fully-fledged member of the porno scene. I am sure you all remember the Group N.W.A featuring Eazy E et al. While one member DJ Yella who was the only member not to rap immediately went on to making porn when the group spilt. Unlike others he writes, directs and shoots the porn as well as appearing in it, but again he does not have sex. I believe he has made over 250 films under the alias 'The Kidd' before the rappers in porn fad took off. He has now started signing his porn’s under his former rap name as 'DJ Yella from N.W.A' and has worked for Elegant Angel.
He now has his own label DJ Yella Entertainment, and the porn is of the black gonzo variety featuring mostly black and latino girls from areas of L.A such as Compton, Watts and South Central. His most recent film includes a rap track with MC Ren also of N.W.A. Anyone who’s a fan of N.W.A, hip-hop and porn should check out:
LiL Jon and the Eastside Boyz American Sex Series. You can watch this movie over and over and never get bored. It's funny, entertaining and not to mention all the booty clapping going on! Geez! I love this flick and I highly recommend it to everyone.
P.S
Van Styles is moving up the food chain faster then you can say popshot! His stuff is worth seeing and I promise you won't be disappointed. Not to mention he's freakin HOT!! Good shit Van!
Groupie Love is worth checking out if you like your porn hosted by rap stars. Hosted by 50 cent, Lloyd Banks and Young Buck. Comes out next Thursday. For more info please go to www.newsensations.com/indexn.php.
I'm still holding out hope that rumors of 'Lil Kim making a film at Freaknic in Atlanta a few years back wasn't a rumor at all. that's one female rapper worth putting down on film
Well, the thread's title did solicit our opinions. Actually I agree with him to be honest. I just can't stand 99% of rap music or rappers, so there's no way in Dante's hell I'll buy anything where there's a risk they'll pop up.
That's not to say I don't want the stuff to be produced. I don't really care. I doubt they'll have any impact, good or bad, on the industry as a whole anyway.
