RAPPER JACKI-O REVEALS WHY SHE SCREWED A D-LIST RECORD EXEC FOR '10 STACKS.'

“Everybody that signed [to Poe Boy] had gotten their advance money, but when it came time for me to get my advance, I had to f*ck for my advance. It was ten stacks and I had to f*ck for it. So naturally it wasn’t something that I’m proud of doing. And I don’t advise any female to get into no business – be it music or whatever – and get exploited like that. [E Class] told me I had to have sex with him to get the ten stacks. That’s how me and him got into a relationship. But that was a situation I had to face, and I made the wrong turn. But I’m from the hood and if somebody offers you ten thousand dollars at one time to get out of the hood, and lets you go for your dream of doing music, you’re gonna run to that.”

--Miami rapper Jacki openly admitting and confirming rumors to Hip Hop Weekly about f-ing E-Class, a d-list record executive to secure a record deal with independent record label Poe Boy Records. Mmm-mmm-mmm. Ol girl did all that screwing and still couldn't score a Top 100 'hit' with her one and only semi-popular single Nookie; and if you didn't tune in to BET's now defunct after-hours video music show, Uncut, chances are you have absolutely no idea of what I'm talking about. And I'm willing to bet that those '10 stacks' (in advance money...advance money that has to be paid back) went straight into her local tattooer's needle. So in the end, she really ain't got shit to show (besides her fifteen minutes of fame for allegedly kicking Foxy Brown's ass at a Miami studio a couple of years ago) for shamelessly flopping her ass onto the infamous casting couch.

Girl, bye.

MAG SCANS/MAG EXCERPTS: JACKI-O IN URBAN INK MAGAZINE; RAPPER TALKS BODY ART & COMPARISONS TO JACKIE KENNEDY ONASSIS.

Jacki-O's mug covers the newest issue of Urban Ink magazine, the only tattoo mag for people of color. In her cover story, the raunchy Miami rapper discusses her body art, of course, and how they reflect her a different side of her personality. The most prominent tattoos the rapper sports is the three-quarter 'sleeve' that covers of her left arm, the intricate design across her waist and abdomen, he angel on her left shoulder and the cherub that sits above her left breast. Jacki-O, real name Angela Kobu, also explains why she chose to lift the name of one of, if not the only classiest, most respected (and respectful) and most sophisticated first lady in American history, Jackie Kennedy Onassis, a.k.a. Jackie-O, as her stage name. Having chosen the name of the wife of John F. Kennedy and Aristotle Onassis, Jacki-O understood that, on some level--whatever level that maybe--she would be forever linked and compared to the former first lady. Therefore and thus and such, her so-called comparisons to the original Jackie O. will definitely have you thinking, 'This girl ain't a trip, she's a journey! What the hell was she thinking?!'

JACKI-O ON HER BIBLICAL-THEMED TATTOOS & WHY SHE VIEWS HER BODY ART AS AN EXTENSION OF FEMALE EMPOWERMENT: "All of my tattoos are related to biblical beings, so I stay in the same theme. They are either angels, birds or stars. I have an image of Mary Magdalene in my sleeve too. I choose to go with this theme because I love cherubs and Godlike beings. I think women are sexy with tattoos because it's almost as if we shouldn't have them. They're supposed to be a 'macho' thing. But once a woman gets a tattoo it reveals her naughty side, and naughty is sexy. I've never been concerned about what people say about me (having tattoos). This is me. Besides, if they had as much guts as I have, they would have tattoos too. My tattoos are an expression of how I feel. I'm going to complete the coloring and shading on my sleeve and then who knows? I love ink! Tattoos have been around for a very long time and have become a way of life for some. They should be worn on someone that can carry the look. I believe you've got to have confidence and be fearless. Whether you rock your tats with jeans and t-shirts or a Giorgio Armani cocktail dress, you should always wear them with an attitude."

JACKI-O ON HER COMPARISONS TO FORMER FIRST LADY, JACKIE KENNEDY ONASSIS: "Mrs. Onassis was a well-dressed socialite that was married to the President, and I'm probably the opposite of that. However, it's what both she and I represent that is why I chose the name. She represented strength and beauty as well as dedication to her family. Those very same things are what I hope to represent as well. We may not share the same ethnicity nor do we have the same backgrounds, both we're both women of power." Yeah, Jacki-boo, and then you woke the hell up. She and that LisaRaye....

JACKI-O ON HER FUTURE PROJECTS: "I am currently working on a movie script. I 'm also recording tracks for my nex project and keeping in shape. I've also been bettering myself as an individual-realizing my capabilities. So there's no limit to what I will do next. I've been approached with many options, but I'm being very patient. I want to make sure the next move is the right move."

Jacki-O has added author to her blossoming resume. The rapper has released her first book, a work of street/urban fiction called Grown & Gangsta which was released through Corey 'C-Murder' Miller's TRU Publishing last week (Feb. 15, 2008). Jacki-O's debut novel also happens to be the first release on Miller's publishing entity. Grown & Sexy tells the story of six friends-- Monique, Tatiana, Inch, Malcolm, Quentin and Iz -- all of whom support each other through trying times on the streets and in their personal lives.

PICS OF UTTER MADNESS: FOXY'S WET 'N WILD LIPSTICK & JACKI-O'S SLOPPY STOMACH

After looking at the following pics of the rap industry's 2 most criminal minded female emcees/enemies, I couldn't figure out what looked worse: that damn Wet 'N Wild mood lipstick Foxy insists on rocking till the end of time OR the gall Jacki-O possessed when she made the unforgivable decision to walk out of her house and into public with that floppy, sloppy and protruding mass of madness she calls a stomach. I'm too through.

PICS: THE UTTER & COMPLETE MADNESS OF THE 2nd ANNUAL OZONE AWARDS

Thousands of rappers, DJs, producers and music fans were in Miami Monday night for the Ozone Awards, which honor southern hip-hop and R&B. The event, hosted by southern hip-hop magazine Ozone, drew performances by national and local hip-hop celebrities such as Tallahassean T-Pain, who performed his hit single Buy UA Drank (Shawty Snappin) and Miamians DJ Khaled, Rick Ross and Pitbull. Other performers included Atlanta's Shop Boyz and Louisiana's Hurricane Chris.

''It's important to have everybody represented in hip-hop, especially the South,'' said Miami rapper Trina (Katrina Le'verne Taylor), who has collaborated with rappers such as Ludacris and Missy Elliott. ''We have our own clothes and our own language,'' she said. She came dressed as Wonder Woman to the event at the James L. Knight Center. Hosted by comedian Lil' Duval, who has been a regular on BET's Comic View, the show will air in MTV Jams -- a hip-hop-oriented channel -- September 1-3.

This is the second year of the Ozone Awards, which were hosted in Orlando last year. The location for the 2008 show hasn't been decided.
