Juicy J: Twerk for a scholarship

FILE UNDER DANCING ABOUT ARCHITECTURE: Three 6 Mafia’s Juicy J came up with a tantalizing offer yesterday, tweeting that he would be "giving out a $50k scholarships [sic] to the best chick that can twerk," HipHopDX reported. He then went so far as to provide formal entry rules before sadly deleting the tweets. As Rollingstone.com speculated, Juicy has either rescinded the offer or is trying to determine whether twerking should be classified as an academic, athletic or merit-based scholarship. Perhaps not coincidentally, his new Columbia album, Stay Trippy hits Tuesday (8/27); it includes a track with A$AP Rocky called "Scholarship." Juicy invites you to unlock and stream the album before release by tossing virtual stacks at virtual strippers in the game "Stay Strippy" at TheJuicyJ.com. Marketing doesn’t get any headier than this, folks. (8/23a)
