__crazy_canine__ Posted October 8, 2004 Share Posted October 8, 2004 Ok so Im trying to think of different artists, shows, and other things that have had pit bulls involved with them... LL Cool J had two pits on chains SOOOO close to being able to bite each other. :evil: There was a crowd surrounding the pits that were on a platform that was all lit up. :roll: Old video I think but I dont know the name of the song. Hip hop video "Hood Hop" I forgot the artist... practically the same thing except it wasnt all glamorous-looking, it was on the streets but this time the pits could actually touch :evil: :o Missy Elliot as much as I love her has pits on her album cover not suggesting anything bad but still hip hop and pits, all I can think of is fighting them. :roll: Juvenile had two pits in his video again nothing bad but still... Can anyone else name some more... Im having trouble thinking but Im just doing this because Im trying to think of all the bad media about pits.

Lucky Chaos Posted October 8, 2004 Share Posted October 8, 2004 As far as music and stuff, isn't there a rapper named pitbull? Again thats probably his name for a tough mean image. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Mutts4Me Posted October 8, 2004 Share Posted October 8, 2004 DMX has a kennel of pits, and he also started a line of clothing for dogs, which he would model on his pits. His pits all have numbers as names, and they used to be in his videos a lot, but I haven't seen any of his videos in several years. Lil' Bow Wow (when he was still lil') had pit pups in at least one video, Puppy Love, where he took his girlfriend to see his litter of pups. I don't know, what other stuff are you looking for?

Guest Mutts4Me Posted October 8, 2004 Share Posted October 8, 2004 First off, a correction. DMX's pits seem to have names. I may have been confused by his clothing line, Boomer 129 which was named after his late pit bull, Boomer (not Boomer 129). Secondly, more stuff about him: [img]http://a426.g.akamai.net/f/426/492/04052001/s.hotbot.com/lycos_music/images/full/490/494635.jpg[/img] Lyrics for "Dog Match" with Eve: I know my babygirl is gonna stretch Any rappin' m*****f*****, male or female Place your bets You can imagine what the bloodline is like Since I love mine to fight ... Get em girl, ha-ha, that's my baby I'mma put the b*tch down, cause the boy got rabies All my pups is crazy, cause off the leash They can eat, stand a match for 3 hours at least And if the beast is in the big one The beast is in the little ones Image from "What's my name" video: [img]http://www.fox5atlanta.com/graphics/bredDMX.jpg[/img] Personal account from an AmStaff owner who met DMX: [quote]My Dogs Posed For Playboy! (well, almost) Last Update: Tuesday July 23, 2002 Yes, you can image my excitement when my two beautiful American Staffordshire Terriers (similar looking to pit bulls) Emma and Parker were chosen to do a fashion layout with rapper DMX for Playboy magazine. What great exposure for them, so to speak. Both girls have competed in agility and conformation show events, so this would be a great "brag" to all my dog-show friends. My dog Emma was picked for the job after the Playboy stylist saw her photo on an animal agent's website. She has a very "pretty" face and has appeared in Dog Fancy magazine, breed calendars, and breed books (brag, brag, brag). They needed two dogs, so I brought along my other dog, Parker, a smaller female. The stylists said they wanted my dogs on prong collars, which was no problem, but I told them I opposed anything that promoted the dogs being violent or attacking. They're too friendly for that anyways. After several hours of waiting, DMX showed up and seemed to love my dogs. He played with them and said they reminded him of his females (he has 10 pit bulls) and we discussed how they were "the best dogs with children". The shoot was a good time, with everybody drinking beer and eating fried chicken, collard greens, and macaroni, even the male models, who got paid for several hours of work to do nothing (lucky, lucky) and my dogs impressed everyone with their good nature and manners. So imagine my suprise when after 5 hours of waiting around, I'm told DMX didn't want to pose with my dogs in a photo because they were "too friendly" looking. Yes, the only kind of pit bull he wants to pose with is the mean, pig-faced "my dog is my weapon" kind of dog. I pride my two girls on their friendly and approcable looks and demeanor because I want to change the way people view this breed. Here is a performer who loves his dogs so much that he writes songs about them, but still wants people to view them as "mean", even though he knows they're not. This kind of attitude is what is getting our breeds (American Staffordshires, Pit Bulls, Rottweilers, etc.) banned in cities and entire countries all over the world. In order to change people's opinions about these dogs, we have to stop portraying them a nasty killers and fighters. I think this is especially important in the African-American community, where dogfighting and pit bulls attacks are so prevalent. In the end, he posed with two photos holding my dog Parker, so I'll keep you posted if they make it in the magazine. But I guess it's the irony of it all that confuses me-pit bulls rejected by Playboy for being "too friendly". I guess we just can't win...

BuddysMom Posted October 8, 2004 Share Posted October 8, 2004 OK kids, quiet down and listen to what this fine gentleman has to say :roll: I can hear the New Jersey judge's lips smooching DMX's butt all the way out here in Colorado. Excuse me, gotta go puke now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

__crazy_canine__ Posted October 8, 2004 Author Share Posted October 8, 2004 Wow thanks for all the info you guys... very useful and I had no idea DMX was that awful! I used to like him!! :o Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BuddysMom Posted October 8, 2004 Share Posted October 8, 2004 It's OK if you like DMX's music ... Music is art, a reflection of culture that is sometimes ugly. And just because you get famous with your art doesn't mean you have to suddenly be this perfect role model ... on the other hand when you hear of an artist being violent, smoking crack, etc. etc. there comes s point when maybe you don't want to line their pockets.

__crazy_canine__ Posted October 8, 2004 Author Share Posted October 8, 2004 [quote name='desertlady']It's OK if you like DMX's music ... [/quote] I suppose but I wont buy his music anymore... that would practically be supporting dog fighting! :o Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BuddysMom Posted October 8, 2004 Share Posted October 8, 2004 Yeah, that's about what I'm saying. If one of his songs comes on the radio and I'm bopping my head I'm not going to beat myself up over it, but I won't be buying his CDs because it's as you said, putting money toward a vile thing.

Guest Anonymous Posted October 12, 2004 Share Posted October 12, 2004 I loveeeeeeeee Hiphop music. I have been a Hiphop dj and listening to the music for 13-14 years. I refuse to listen to any of DMX's garbage because I personally think that he is scum. DMX has many songs promoting dog fighting and the fact that he tries to glamorize dog fighting in his videos which are watched by many teenagers and even younger children just goes to show what a worthless piece of scum he is.
