Everybody in the world knows Shar Jackson is the Rap Superstar! She's the total package! She has the rapabilities! If you ask whose the celeb out of the bunch, I'd have to say all three are celebs in their own right. People love each one of them for their different personalities. The little Hip Hop girls even love Sebastin, its kool!

This week we had voting to let the audience decide what songs the final three should. I thought I would personally weigh in my thoughts... Read more...

I was floored by the fact Countess went from 5th to 2nd place and then had to drop out! From day one I knew she was a contender, she was getting more confident each bout! Countess really doesn't need to rap, she could sing, for real!....but she could do her own 16 bar rap verses on her own songs instead of having a guest rapper appear on the trax!
I've got some personal behind the scenes photos right here if you would like to check them out after the jump...

Everybody's talking about the backstage Perez freakout. I think Perez was justified. He had a legitimate technical difficulty, his mic was off, and that's the worst thing to happen when you're on stage. Everyone else still had a chance to win because most of them just plain forgot lyrics and used the start over as an excuse to save themselves...

Being a judge is weird because you really don't wanna tell the truth when these people look at you with puppy dog eyes...but you have to! We haven't really disagreed but when Big Boy chose to save Perez, I was like, 'What in the world is your reason for that?' Read more...

Whew, the first day of shooting the first show is done. We made it.

It went smoother than I thought it would. Duh! A lot of us been in show business so we used to "hurry up and wait!" There's a real "fun" vibe on set. It feels like elementary or high school or something, the MTV execs and staff and production team are the school principal, teachers and workers, and we the judges, mentors and celebs are the students. Its really "kool".

I thought some of the "celebs" would of been a lot better, and what I mean by that is, as big as Hip Hop is, we determine what people, drive, drink, wear, how they walk and talk...we influence everything, I thought more of the celebs would have that Hip Hop "swagger".
So its refreshing to see that not"everybody and their mother" CAN be a rapper! You have to really put your WORK in! Some peeps on the show are natural, but ALL that can change in an instance as we shoot on in the next couple a weeks.
Most importantly though, THE AUDIENCE was loving it! So that's all good! They enjoyed all the participants and that's a breath of fresh air. So over all that's the "big come up", the peeps are having fun....and so are we. Peace n love!

Show is very interesting and entertaining and makes me wanna go try things i've never done. I don't really like rehearsal cause real Hip Hop is spontaneous, you gotta go when its time to go.
