[Quote] Ice-T to produce Hasselhoff rap album
Ice-T is to produce David Hasselhoff’s first hip-hop album.
The pair are neighbours in Los Angeles and are said to have struck up a close friendship.
Hasselhoff has had some success as a singer, releasing seven albums. He’s also said to be very popular in Germany.
Ice-T, who was one of the first real hip-hop stars in the late 1980s, said: “The man is a legend. And we are going to show a whole new side of him.”
The rapper is said to be convinced that the 51-year-old for Knight Rider and Baywatch actor can take on the biggest names in rap, reports The Sun.
Ice-T added: “He’s gonna come out as Hassle The Hoff - I promise you. The Hoff will surprise people with his rap skills and humour.” [Quote]

That HAS to be a joke. Remember his song “Looking for freedom”… I mean, rap skills?
Dut then again: you never know what hidden talents everybody got.
And Ben Affleck will be the new Knight Rider. Yoeraadraghegg.
The World is ending. Brace for impact, everyone. This will be the musical armaggedon, and we’ll all gonna die in pain.
Edited for spelling (goddammit).

I could not subject my ears to that sort of thing.
shivers
Well…. Hasslehoff’s popular in Germany, right, but is it genuine appreciation for his talents (for want of a better term) or sort of a William Hung/consolation prize-type popularity with the hidden snicker?
HE IS NOT POPULAR IN GERMANY. GODDAMMIT, WHO STARTED THIS FUCKING RUMOUR?
Seriously, tho, we as a nation like Hasselhoff as much as the next guy/nation… and you know what that means.
FLAMETHROWERS!
Um…… the Brits seem to think so.
Yes, IIRC, most of the Brits also think all the French are totally gay. Not true, as we all know — so you might take all that with a grain of salt. :P
What? The French are not gay? Hmm, is it also wrong that the Brits eat all their food with peppermint sauce?
I shall leave now and never come back.
Wait no wait! I have a small favor to ask. Please?
