  • Letter in Support of Commutation Petition of Chauncey Hawkins Page 2
    The Weldon Project 3218 Glendale Blvd Los Angeles, CA 90039 www.theweldonproject.org June 13, 2019 President Donald J. Trump The White House 1600 Pennsylvania Ave NW. Washington, D.C. 20500 RE: Commutation Petition of Chauncey Hawkins Dear Mr. President: On behalf of Amir Muhadith (previously known as Chauncey Hawkins and Loon) and his family, we strongly urge you to grant him a presidential commutation of sentence without delay. The undersigned—musicians, actors, filmmakers, and community leaders strongly believe that justice necessitates the exercise of executive clemency in this case. In 2013, Mr. Hawkins was sentenced to 14 years’ imprisonment for a minor role in a non-violent drug case.1 His sentence was subsequently lowered to 136 months (11 years, 4 months) as a result of the All Drugs Minus 2 Amendment by the U.S. Sentencing Commission in 2014. He has served over 7 years of his sentence. We believe this should be enough. Chauncey Hawkins was born in Harlem, New York, and as a young adult he started his career in the music industry as a member of Mase’s rap group Harlem World and then became part of P. Diddy’s Bad Boy Records under the name Loon. He released his self- titled debut album Loon and made many guest appearances on songs of the R&B and hip hop genres.2 But he is most known for his appearance on P. Diddy’s hit songs “I Need A 1 Former Bad Boy Rapper Loon Gets 14-Year Sentence, BET (July 19, 2013); http://www.bet.com/news/music/2013/07/19/former-bad-boy-rapper-loon-gets-14-year- sentence.html 2 See https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Loon_(rapper) 3218 Glendale Blvd Los Angeles, CA 90039 | www.theweldonproject.org Letter in Support of Commutation Petition of Chauncey Hawkins Page 2 Girl” featuring Usher and “I Need A Girl Part 2” featuring Ginuwine.3 In 2004, Loon left Bad Boy Records to start his own label, Boss Up Entertainment.

  • Welcome to the Candy Shop! Conflicting Representations of Black Masculinity
    Popular Music (2014) Volume 33/2. © Cambridge University Press 2014, pp. 209–224 doi:10.1017/S0261143014000312 Welcome to the candy shop! Conflicting representations of black masculinity MARITA B. DJUPVIK Faculty of Fine Arts, University of Agder, Post Box 422, No- 4604 Kristiansand, Norway E-mail: [email protected] Abstract Mainstream hip hop videos have long been known for their images of scantily clad women, extreme materialism, and misogynist and homophobic lyrics. In this article I focus on how rapper 50 Cent’smas- culinity is constructed and expressed through music, lyrics and images in his video ‘Candy Shop’ from 2005. This is a classically modelled hip hop video, replete with markers of hypermasculinity: fancy cars, ‘bling’, and lots of beautiful, sexually available women. Several scholars have discussed how women are exploited in videos like this and reduced to props for the male star. However, few have explored how this macho masculinity is constructed. Through a close reading of this video, using socio-musicology and audiovisual analysis as my approach, I propose that the macho masculinity presented here is threatened when the male body is on display, but 50 Cent reassures himself (and his audience) through selective framing, involving both other performers and the music. Introduction There is a long tradition in popular music lyrics of using sugar or candy to evoke something desirable, including ‘I Can’t Help Myself (Sugar Pie Honey Bunch)’ by the Four Tops (1965), ‘Sugar, Sugar’ by the Archies (1969), ‘Brown Sugar’ by the Rolling Stones (1971) and ‘Candy Girl’ by New Edition (1983), among others.
