...fact when I saw Lee Iacocca appear in a Chrysler ad with Snoop Dogg. Or when water was being advertised by 50 Cent. You know, c'mon guys. We don't court it, we don't overly promote it. Charles Barkley took me to task for having Big & Rich at the Denver All-Star Game (in 2005) because they weren't hip-hop.
