But when Ali and other activists learned that Nelly's drink is named "Pimp Juice," after the rapper's song, "Our mouths just dropped."

Let's see, pimps are in essence slave owners. Obviously then one African-American calling another a pimp must be a term of endearment.

Obviously then one African-American calling another a pimp must be a term of endearment. Just like the much used 'N***r'is ok if it comes out of the right mouth. 'Pimp' doesn't mean pimp, 'raza' doesn't mean race, and 'jihad' doesn't mean 'holy war'. Nothing has meant what is says since 'is' lost the meaning of 'is'.

Project Islamic Hope is going to be our new Politically Correct Police? Should I be shopping for my new burkha?

[ Jay Garafola, chairman of Multimedia Inc., which handles Liquid Ice, said the Pimp Juice concept is ill-conceived. "What are they thinking, calling it Pimp Juice?" Garafola said. "Nelly's not a pimp; he's an entertainer." ]
So true, So true... Its Jay Garafola thats the pimp...
