How in the world did I miss this?!

I’m down for Black-owned businesses,  I’m down for entrepreneurship, and I’m down for Black people on TV. But for real, if 50 cent is the only Black person MTV could think of for it’s Apprentice rip off, The Money and the Power, I just can’t.  Now I haven’t seen the show (yet) but from Racialicious’s review, this show will bring the lolz and the “ooohs” and quiet possibly the “boos”.

Has anyone seen this yet? Is it as bad as it sounds?

Apparently, MOP, Mobb Deep, Tony Yayo, Lloyd Banks, Olivia, Ma$e, LL Cool J, and a few other not-so-big rappers were already booted off the contest. And that was on the pilot!!!

Yes, I was channel flipping one day last week and came across it. I could only take it for 5 minutes before I just completely turned off my TV. Almost as bad as “Real Chance at love” or whatever its called.

Yeah…no, couldn’t do it. I think I lose brain cells everytime I get hung up on one of these shows, lol.

I now just bypass, Vh1, MTV, and anything Tyra Banks does altogether!!
