for the VH1 Hip Hop Honors and everybody was there except for a few glaring omissions. Namely Jay Z, nor any of his affiliates [read: Kanye West] and LL Cool J. The first two are easily explainable. Jay Z is currently overseas promoting his new cd 'The Blueprint 3' and Kanye West just may not be ready to do any televised appearances so soon after his last episode, but LL? You know there's some juicy gossip behind that snub. Anyway, stalking Twitter last night I heard the long standing fued between Ja Rule and DMX was squashed with a man hug, that Foxy Brown and Faboulous were not getting along during rehearsal and that Lyor Cohen gave a scathing backhand to Bad Boy and Death Row while comparing them to Def Jam. The show airs Oct 13.
