Rapper Ludacris
will head to Miami to shoot the video for "Money Maker" with Pharrell
Williams on Monday (July 31) and the video will debut a new look for the Disturbing
Tha Peace CEO. Ludacris,
born Chris Bridges, has cut off his trademark braids and afro for a shorter haircut.
According
to the rapper, who is preparing his new album Release Therapy, the time
had come for a new look.”Release
Therapy marks a new phase in my life," Ludacris told AllHipHop.com in
a statement. "I’m very excited to move forward and try new things. Life is
all about change and this album will hopefully reflect some of my growth as an
artist and a person. With that said, it only makes sense that I ‘shake things
up’ and try something different. Who knows what I’ll come up with next?” The
video for “Money Maker” will debut on MTV in the fall. In
related news, Ludacris and Disturbing Tha Peace will host AllHipHop.com’s invitation
only Battle Royale "The War" during AllHipHop Week. Various
MC’s will square off at the invitation event to compete for the $5,000 prize and
championship title. For more information click here.
