everyone needs a rap name. EVERYONE...

tonight i was on the phone with my friend lexi. all of a sudden she busted up laughing. there was snow blizzard-ing in her apartment through her window AC unit. in case you missed your local news tonight, lexi's apartment was part of BREAKING NEWS: BLIZZ 2011...

see for yourself...

can you believe it? i know... SNOW.M.G!! (we're so clever..)
yeah, that's right, it went there... we used "snow" puns. and we didn't stop there... snodacris, fat snoe, snotorious b.i.g, snoni braxton.

it got me thinking... back in high school my friends and i all had rap names. we were so cool. (we still are). we didn't take the task of giving someone a rap name lightly... we took each person's name into careful consideration while pondering potential famous rap associates. we deliberated. we voted. it was a process. "but on one weekend, as america and the world watched, a group of remarkable young women gave the nation what it needed most - a chance, for one night, not only to dream, but a chance, once again, to believe".... in rap names.

the crew:
ali... notorious A.L.I.
lexi... DMLex  or  funkmaster lex
tracy... tra-rule
cathy... c$
jami... jamenile
ellen... foxy el
bridget... bridge puffy combs

tra-rule currently resides in london.
she has a friend lewis, known in the rap world as lew-pac.
