If you could pick the MC/Host of the 2006 Players Ball, who would you pick?
 

We might have our headlining artist already, so who would make a great MC for the night.

Past Players Ball MC's include:

Flavor Flav & Ice-T (twice)


Potential MC's I'll throw out there -

Ludacris, Peter Brady, Vern (little guy from Surreal Life and Austin Powers), Method Man, Redman, Ice-T, Lil Jon, Charlie Murphy?

Let's hear some suggestions.

Kid Rock would be cool or Marilyn Manson. Not sure if that can happen, but let's hear some options before I lock someone in.

Michael Jackson

That would be about the WORST thing to happen to our industry.

:1orglaugh

Ok, what about Tupac.

Perry Farell I think its spelt wrong The dude from Janes Adiction

bernie mac

Johnny Witherspoon

Cedric the entertainer

I'll bring back Tupac and Biggie.

But you're gonna have to drink a lot that night to believe it.

KB and the Bizzles on his ukulele :thumbsup

Ya know from what I hear and have seen over the years. Ice-T has pimping tendencies. He has respect for the pimp lifestyle. Gotta be someone with charisma... I'll also think of Too Short... But if you're looking for the latest artist... Ludacris will be good...

D-Money, bring outlawz

You mean this guy?

You have good taste.

We've had Too $hort perform and spit game on the mic at about 5 Players Balls.

We can bring him back easy to hang out and get up there.

And Ice-T hosted one of our Players Ball for money, the second one he did for free, he loved it.

I'd bring him back in a heart beat too.

But what if Ludacris is an option?

Which would you choose then?

How about BB King?
Get em to solo some blues...

Or just say fuck all and get Trent Reznor.

ludacris is a funny guy and smart, which makes him good in my book.

but i choose SHOCK-G!

oh wot about Rage Against the Machine :thumbsup

but this is the fight between rock and hip-hop / rap ... maybe the rappers win in a party environment like Players Ball ?!

are you going to wait to get on the guys from the south until they're not popular anymore? i've been telling you that's where you would get your best performers and prices and now their in demand huge and prices are going up. way back i was suggesting the houston guys before they hit mtv, like flip, mike jones, chamillionaire, bun b, paul wall and so on.

dave chappel

E40, cause I want to go SIDEWAYS

Mike Jones is on my list.

Now he's hot, ho's all love him.

Didn't he disappear and go nuts?

Ice-T still.

How about Henry Rollins?

come on, shock-g!

wheres the support?!?

Mike Jones is not a good rapper though, he's a good promoter. Paul Wall is a better rapper, but his album is dropping in a couple months and he will be huge by then. Why not try hitting up on the Geto Boys or maybe go for one of the big southern mixtape DJ's like DJ Smallz or Chops.

thats right player.


shit, approach chris rock -

B-Money (not related) has a deal in the works for a mixtape by DJ Smallz to do a Players Ball mixtape.

Released in January 2006 in time for the Players Ball. I hope that happens.

good shit man, hit me on icq sometime and let's talk about those mixunit guys and the mixtape shit. my favorite blog of mine is a southern hip hop and porn blog that i've been doing interviews and posting some mixtapes and shit on too.

Marilyn Manson would be the shit... I'd love to sip absinthe with that motherfucker!

Ice-T is always cool. A comedian might be good though...

ADG Webmaster

you mean this guy?

Taken from the Players Ball Major Motion Picture debut in Head Of State featuring Chris Rock. That's right, it's D-Money's Players Ball that is featured in the movie. Contract and all. I got Don Magic Juan tickets for the movie premier too.

snoop a loop

comon snoop a loop, we're all going streaaakiiinnngg

it's ok you can bring your green hat!

Outlawzzzz

Give Players Ball some west coast flavor, Get Andre Nickatina there, That guy can spit some rhymes, To bad Mac Dre got killed he would be good for the ball, Equipto would be nice too.. If you live in the Bay area or know bay area style hiphop you would like nickatina and the others i listed.

Royce Da 5'9'' or Eminem;)

Ice-T would be the shit, and you could have him perform some Body Count stuff for the rock crowd

id def go with ludacris

Anymore suggestions?

Ice-T for sure...

And of course Kid Rock or Marilyn Manson would rock...if only!

And Flava Flav LOL I can't understand a thing that guy says half the time...he always sounds like he's got marbles in his mouth :P

Shock G.....

Peeps are going to think iw work for ya - i set em up and you knock em out. :1orglaugh :thumbsup

will miami be on the map next yr as a players ball location?

Not during Internext.

But I might throw one in Miami during a more practical time of year if I felt we can get a great group of webmasters together.

Maybe it will be a part of a concert tour for the mainstream, if we can finally pull that off. Who knows.

Miami is a hot place for a Players Ball.

i second that. what ever happened to mac mall?

and those dude that sang that song BLUEBIRD? "theres a bluebird on my shoulder should i kill it"

shit i can't remember the name.

oh and dru down. now you are gettingme thinking about when i lived in san jose.

Ludacris would be a great pick..

Same with some of the previous guys like Ice T.

How about Juicy?

Or Sleazydream?

Eddie Izzard. Just for laughs.

what about Faith Hill or Shania Twain?

Vern,would be the ultimate..I'm sure he has a lot to say

... and a series of 'wardrobe mallfunctions'
