Rev Run Is Returning To TV! But…It’s Not What You Think!
Rev Run and his family will be returning to our TV screens in 2014…but it’s not via their MTV show, Run’s House! Instead, it will be an HGTV show, focusing on the renovation of their 9000 sq. ft. New Jersey estate. Not all of the same people live in the house anymore (as Vanessa and Angela have moved out West..and I’d hope that Jojo is out on his own by now…), but I’m sure they’ll be making appearances. Will you be tuning in?
Juelz Santana Speaks On JoJo Simmons Incident
Over the weekend, a rapper by the name of Hynief ran up on JoJo Simmons for some words he’d previously said about his CEO, Juelz Santana. JoJo has since spoken out about the incident, saying he doesn’t condone violence and doesn’t want anything to escalate, and now Juelz is sharing his side. As I suspected, he’s distancing himself as far from the situation as possible. I mean the obvious thing is, it wasn’t Juelz who ran up on JoJo and there’s no telling if he told his boy to do so, or he was just being a ride-or-die and saw an open window and went through it. Another thing here: Juelz isn’t dumb. He’s signed to Def Jam…a label JoJo’s uncle Russell has a LOT of pull at. He wants his album to see the light of day! Check out what he said about the incident while talking to Power 99 in Philly below.
After Catching Heat For His Video Interview, JoJo Simmons Speaks Out On Twitter
As we all know by now, Jojo Simmons was “ran up on” over the weekend by a member of Juelz Santana’s Skull Gang crew, Hynief. The next day, the Rev’s son spoke out on the situation in an interview while on set of a video shoot, but apparently he hadn’t planned that, and the outcome was a little more hood than he’d meant it to be. (Courtesy of his boys behind him, throwing up gang signs…smh.) Taking to Twitter, Jojo spoke out on the situation and attempted to clear it up, again. See what he said in the gallery.
(Video) Jojo Simmons Speaks Out About Incident
Over the weekend, Jojo Simmons got into a bit of an altercation with a member of Juelz Santana’s Skull Gang crew. The guy, Hynief, ran up on Jojo out in Queens, apparently trying to shake him up over the little “beef” Juelz and Jojo had a couple months back. Nothing came from the incident other than a meme that made its rounds on the web, but now Jojo is speaking out about what happened. Stop the violence!
