While the explicit nature of the hip-hop videos has helped to mainstream pornographic images through channels such as MTV and BET, what is even more powerful is the close financial relationship between hip-hop and porn. Increasingly, hip-hop artists are involved in making porn videos to go along with their music, using pornographic imagery and porn stars. According to writer P. Weasels: “Hip hop porn can be divided into two broad categories: porn-centric and music-centric. . . . In the porn-centric movies, there doesn’t tend to be much in the way of new music or original beats; the porn takes center-stage. In the music video-style porn, the artist has taken some time to make new tunes for the film, and generally it will be marketed that way.” (P. Weasels, “Porn 101: Hip Hop Porn Primer,”
Game Link,
n.d.,
http://www.gamelink.com/news.jhtml?news_id=news_nt_primer_hip_hop_porn
[accessed May 2, 2009]).

AVN’s Frank Majors traces the beginning of this relationship back to the 1990s, with artists such as DJ Yella, a founding member of NWA, both directing and acting in porn. But, as Majors argues, the relationship between porn and hip-hop took off in 2001 when superstar rapper Snoop Dog joined with Hustler to make
Doggystyle.
This became the best-selling porn movie of the year and was followed by Snoop Dogg’s
Hustlaz: Diary of a Pimp,
which also became a top seller. Following the Snoop videos, other hip-hop artists jumped on the bandwagon and aligned themselves with the porn industry. Majors points out that “soon the market was flooded with the artists such as Mystikal’s
Liquid City
(Hustler), Too Short’s
Get In Where You Fit In
(Adam and Eve), Lil’ Jon & The East Sidaz’s
Lil’ Jon’s American Sex Series
(Video Team), and Ice-T’s
Pimpin’ 101
(Pleasure Productions).” Frank Majors, “Strange Bedfellows: Rock ’n’ Rap Storm Porn, But Where Can It Go From Here?”
Adult Video News,
May 2004,
http://www.avn.com/video/articles/15844.htm
(accessed January 7, 2009).

Ice-T is especially interesting since he is a one-time pimp turned actor and rapper. According to the director, Tony Diablo, Ice-T’s hands-on knowledge of pimping helped to make
Pimpin’ 101
more intense as “he broke down every sort of girl and he’s sharing his own experiences.” “Ice-T’s
Pimpin’ 101,
”
Adult Video News,
n.d.,
http://www.adultvideonews.com/otset/ots0103_02.html
(accessed January 7, 2009). This is ironic given that Ice-T plays a caring and empathic police officer who deals with sex crimes against women on
Law and Order SVU.
As an unrepentant pimp and a producer of porn, Ice-T gets to construct an image of himself on television that is greatly at odds with his lived experience.
