bigted Posted September 18, 2005 Report Share Posted September 18, 2005 LL Cool J, Ice T make VH1's hip-hop honor roll 34 minutes ago VH1 pays tribute to the spirit and influence of hip-hop with its second annual "VH1 Hip-Hop Honors" event, hosted by Russell Simmons and his brother, Run-D.M.C. co-founder Rev. Run. Feted this year will be LL Cool J, Big Daddy Kane, Grandmaster Flash & the Furious Five, the Notorious B.I.G., Ice T, Salt-N-Pepa and John Singleton's groundbreaking flick "Boyz N the Hood." A number of the performances will pair the honorees with some of today's most popular acts. Rapper Nelly will join forces with R&B siren Ciara to perform a medley of LL Cool J's classics "Jinglin' Baby" and "Doin' It" before LL performs "Mama Said Knock You Out." Rapper/producer Kanye West will appear with Faith Evans and a mass choir to honor Evans' deceased husband, the Notorious B.I.G., in the evening's finale. The show, which will be taped September 22 at New York's Hammerstein Ballroom, is slated to air at 9 p.m. ET September 26 on VH1. Reuters/Billboard Copyright © 2005 Reuters Limited.

JumpinJack AJ Posted September 18, 2005 Report Share Posted September 18, 2005 Very cool...i can't wait til LL takes the stage. Why Nelly tho'?!...and Ciara?!? It's like VH-1 takes one step forward, then one step backwards. They should have someone who makes sense performing his songs. If FP wazn't such a legend, i'd say he'd be the one worthy of performing them. It's cool that Ice-T will be there 2. I real OG in Hip-Hop...who also used 2 have a lyrical beef with LL. It old and they are cool enough 2 attend the same event without beef. Someone pass this talent on2 idiots like 50 Cent. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
