JAY-Z TO APPEAR IN ROCAWEAR'S FIRST-EVER TELEVISON AD CAMPAIGN

Jay-Z will use his star power to help the struggling clothing brand.

Jay-Z has profited significantly over the years from the Rocawear clothing line he co-founded with Dame Dash; but after laying off 28 of its 56 employees at its Manhattan offices, it's apparent that the brand is having a rough go of it.

USMagazine.com reports that Jay-Z will be featured prominently in the brand's first-ever television campaign.

The spot will begin to air on MTV, BET, and TNT, for the latter primarily during NBA games.

The campaign, titled "From Marcy to Madison Square," comes at a time where Rocawear has seen global sales drop $500 million.

The ads will show Jay-Z's ascension from selling CDs out of the trunk of his cars in his beloved Marcy Projects to rocking the stage at Madison Square Garden.

Rocawear reportedly has plans to expand its childrens' clothing line and international markets.

BET BANS NICKI MINAJ's "STUPID HOE" VIDEO

The network reportedly blocks the Hype Williams-directed visuals.

After Nicki Minaj broke a VEVO record with her Hype Williams-directed music video for "Stupid Hoe," fans might only be able to watch the colorful clip on the streaming network.

According to TMZ, BET has banned the visuals from airing on the network. Though a BET representative didn't state why the video has been blocked, sources say that the clip is too explicit for TV.

Nicki is currently prepping the release of her sophomore album Pink Friday: Roman Reloaded, tentatively set for an April 3rd release. She will next appear at the Super Bowl halftime show, where she will grace the stage with Madonna and M.I.A.
