Las Vegas, NV — Taking his giant headphones off, Coolio, with his well-marketed, carefully managed, easily recognizable hairstyle turned to the gaggle of reporters at his studio. “Yeah man, like, what had happened was, I was on this porn site, see? And I was thinking of ways to hide the moaning and shit without turning the volume down. So I emailed the guys that run the website and asked them if they could run my music on the site in return for a free subscription and they said yes.” Coolio is a trailblazer in terms of marketing — he’s published a cookbook, starred in movies, and now, he has launched Coolio bobbleheads on sale on the porn merchandise website. “It’s got the website name on the jersey, see?” He gave each one of the reporters present a Coolio bobblehead. “I want this to be a gangsta’s paradise,” he said. When asked what his favorite porn genre was, he flashed a smile. “No comment, man, no comment. I’m just a good guy trying to make a living.”
