Luke’s ‘Parental Advisory’ Brings 2 Live Crew Back to TV
It didn’t get more controversial Luther ‘Luke’ Campbell and the 2 Live Crew back in the late 80′s. Almost every teenage boy (and some girls) had the Crew’s ‘Banned in the USA’ or ‘Me So Horny’ cassettes hidden under their bed. Now Luke is back on VH1 with his own reality TV show, ‘Parental Advisory,’ about being married with children. The show welcomes us to a new Luke with many glimpses of the old Luke lurking around as well.
Here is a sneak into what Luther’s ‘Parental Advisory’ will be all about:
Parental Advisory gives viewers a look inside the day-to-day life of the man who introduced the “booty-shaking”element to hip-hop known as “Miami Bass,” and won the music industry’s biggest freedom of speech battle in the Supreme Court which resulted in warning labels on music. Today, Luke’s hands are full with planning his wedding to Kristin, a successful lawyer and beautiful 27 year-old fiancée, giving his 17-year old daughter Lacresha’s boyfriend the third degree, and confiscating pornography tapes from under 15 year-old Luther Jr.’s bed. Also central to Luke’s life are his weekly trips to the local barbershop, Cut It Up, where the lively regulars listen to Luke pontificate and then bring him right back down to size.
But make no mistake, Luke Campbell has not totally traded in his former lifestyle for the straight and narrow road. Luke vows to have the bachelor party of all bachelor parties, plans to wear hip-hop attire instead of a tuxedo, and wants a cake designed as a silhouette of a woman on his wedding day. Luke and his family and friends will also be active on FamousVh1Friends.com – an innovative new social network that allows fans to connect directly with every member of the cast, view their personal pictures and video blogs and meet other fans of the show.
VH1.com will sneak peek episode one beginning Monday, July 28 – one week before the on-air premiere and will be home to exclusive video content throughout the season. Each episode will be available on VH1.com every Monday beginning at 11 PM ET. VH1 Mobile will also offer select “Luke’s Parental Advisory” video throughout the season.
Hey don’t laugh too hard yet. With the success of Flavor Flav’s ‘Flavor of Love’ and Bret Michaels‘ ‘Rock of Love’ it is possible for any reality TV show to be an entertaining hit.
For you youngsters the 2 Live Crew is why explicit CD’s now have the ‘Parental Advisory’ stickers.
