Jay Smooth over at Hip Hop Music takes the NYT to task for its story yesterday on Lil John's new porn career. Is Lil John, as they claim, the first rapper to do porn? Not hardly:

Admittedly Snoop's Doggystyle tape doesn't count since he adopts a Rod Serling role, introducing the escapades without joining in. But do you mean to tell me nobody at the Times ever saw Treach's Naturally Naughty Porno Movie?? Or the groundbreaking work of Cypress Hill affiliate Son Doobie in Son Doobie, Porn King way back in 1995, later cited by Eminem in "Guilty Conscience"? Talk about cultural illiteracy!
