HOOD BOX OFFICE · TOO REAL FOR TV
Bishop's Vault
Bishop Don Magic Juan's films and Players Ball footage from the Too Real For TV vault. Members only.
Bishop Don Magic Juan came up in Chicago and founded the Players Ball, the yearly gathering where players honored their own. The furs, the jeweled cups and the suits from the Ball are where a lot of rap's imagery came from.
He left the life for the ministry, then became Snoop Dogg's spiritual adviser and a regular on records and screens, from American Pimp and 50 Cent's “P.I.M.P.” to Friday After Next, Old School and Starsky & Hutch.
This is his vault on Hood Box Office: the Maroy films, the radio show and the backstage footage.
