      My family Net worth is more than what Bow Wow is worth. A quick google search will let you know that Bow Wow is only worth $300,000 which is about N45,000,000. My family combined has much more money than that, so tell me again, why should I hate on Bow Wow? 106 & Park is the only job he has left in order to pay child support. LMAOOOO.

    7. @alicia u r such a loser, ur fam's worth? Pls which fam is that n is dt ur worth?... Coming here to hate on som1 who doesnt know u exist... Mscheww

      Delete
    8. @ Alicia ur mumu is revealed aall over ur comment, is 45 million naira the equivalent of $300,000? Abi u no sabi use comma for digits. 2ndly u dey compare ur family worth to bow wow own. Bow wow is 27 years or so(probably ur age mate) and u r comparing him wit ur entire family. If I'm ur father I will disown u after reading dis comment.

      I am a university student, not anywhere close to his age. With the field i'm studying i will definitely surpass his net worth in under 5 years.
      And yes mumu, $300,000 is 45 million Naira. The guy you people are famzing cant even afford a house in VI.
      Boot lickin Nigerians. Don't worry he will come and perform in Nigeria when America is completely done with him. You know they only remember Nigeria when they have completely fallen off but apparently they know Nigerians like scraps, as long as its from America. Lmaoooo

  50. Linda just am observation.
    I have weighed both ends and I have noticed there is more drama in the Movie world than in the music. That is Nollywood. If you ask me I think because you have plenty of girls there. I will for more drama if you ask me. Please entertain us with more Torri. Drama is what we your readers love about your Blog.

  60. That's a man knowing what he wants from his life. Underneath his sayings were this new name involves a higher responsibility and as such I am up to the task; and if you count my limitation as "Bow Wow" then we are no longer on the same page.

  77. Bow Wow, you no serious. You have more chance of being called samosa than Shad Moss.

    Your uncle Snoop Dog / Snoop Cat / Snoop Tiger / Snoop Marijuana / Snoop Lion tried rebranding his ganja smoking self. It didn't work.

    Puff Daddy / Poof Daddy / Puff Puff Daddy / P Diddy or whatever he's called these days. His attempt ended in utter chaos, confusion and amusement.

    Bow Wow looks like Bow Wow.

    Bow Wow, unless you wear a (fake or real) beard and increase your height, you will always be known as Bow Wow. Shad Moss, no. Sorry.

  78. Wiz kid needs to do same asap, hez no longer a kid
