11 Most Embarrassing Moments in Hip-Hop History

Rappers, like everyone else, have some dark, embarrassing secrets that they hope would remain just that - secrets. The difference between us and them is that public figures don't have the privilege of being able to deal with embarrassing moments in private like the rest of us. But Ross isn't the only rapper who's had to lick his wounds in public. Here's a rundown of 11 most embarrassing exposures in hip-hop history.

11. Alfamega Publicly Dismissed from T.I.'s Label

Alfamega was originally a member of T.I.'s Grand Hustle Records. This changed after the ever reliable Smoking Gun website outed him as a former DEA informant, a no-no in many hip-hop circles. Consequently, T.I. publicly dismissed 'Mega from Grand Hustle via a radio interview. Ouch! Following the public showdown, Alfamega consistently tried to dismiss the rumor. Still, that wasn't enough to save his career in a culture that generally frowns on "snitching."

10. Akon or Con Man?

Akon always touted his past reputation as the ring leader of a notorious car theft clique. He claims to have been locked up for 31/2 years. He even rode his way to fame on the strength of a catchy single titled "Locked Up," in which 'Kon gave a supposedly autobiographical account of prison desolation. In fact, Akon was so obsessed with his felonious past that he named his label Konvict Music. That sound you hear at the beginning of every song he produces? That's the sound of a clanking cell door.

A Smoking Gun investigation would later revealed some inconsistencies between his account and the real deal. Sure, Akon was arrested several times, but the man who titled his sophomore LP Konvicted has never served jail time.

9. Dr. Dre in Pumps and Mascara

At the height of the Eazy-E vs Dr. Dre beef in 1992, the feuding friends traded insults non-stop. Just when it appeared as if Dre had sealed the deal with "Dre's Day," Eazy-E rebounded with "Real Muthaf-ckin' Gs." Eazy-E attacked Dre and Snoop, dubbing them studio gangsters who had never really witnessed the harsh realities of the "hood," but that wasn't the highlight. He devoted plenty of airtime to Dre's past as a member of the electro-pop group World Class Wrecking Cru' saying that he dressed in drag outfit while in the group. "Damn it’s a trip how a n-gga can go so quick from wearing lipstick to smoking on chronic at picnics," he rapped. Eazy also threw in a promo pic of Dre from 1986 dressed in pumps and mascara to boot.

8. Eve's Dirty Secret

Ma$e once ran into Eve at a strip club years before she became famous, but he never mentioned it to anyone. Some internet jerk who stumbled upon pictures of Eve from her stripping days, however, wasn't so nice. In 2003, just as Eve was in the middle of revamping her image as an artist and aspiring actress, unflattering pics of her in full-on stripper outfit surfaced on the web to the amusement of many. Some of the photos showed the Ruff Ryders' first lady in a compromising position with another female. She later denied being a lesbian, saying that the other lady had been Photoshopped onto the original picture. Well, there was nothing doctored about the sex tape that turned up a couple years after the stripper saga.

Oh and If you want to add another one embarassing moment feel free to comment to us about it.

I remember when Bow Wow started dissing Will Smith to then be attacked by everybody and he had to say that he wasnt being serious and that he actually admires Will as a rapper, as an actor and entertainer. If he would have just apologized it wouldnt be embarassing, but then he just started butt kissing Will..
