YING YANG TWINS TO VISIT THE DR. PHIL SHOW TO DISCUSS (OR DEFEND?) THE ISSUE OF WEARING SAGGY PANTS IN PUBLIC.

The issue of urban youth donning their sagging pants in public will be discussed before a nationwide audience. Community organization Hip Hop Government (www.hiphopgovernment.org) has expanded its "Pull 'Em Up" billboard campaign to additional cities in the Dallas Fort Worth Metroplex and is taking the campaign national. The organization's co-founders Jay Scroggins, Damon Wofford, and Chris Williams have been invited to appear on Dr. Phil's talk show, which will bring the anti-sagging campaign to a national audience when the show airs later this month. Dallas Deputy Pro Tem Mayor Dwaine Caraway, the Rev. Al Sharpton and rap duo Kaine and D-Roc of the Ying Yang twins will also make an appearance. I don't even think I want to watch that episode! LOL!

The featured guests were invited to discuss the controversial topic of whether government should regulate the way people wear their clothes and will also discuss hip hop artists accepting responsibility for the effect of their music and lyrics on the hip hop culture. "We are excited for the opportunity to address issues that concern our culture," expressed Williams. "Too often, when members of the hip hop community are in the media, it's for something negative. It feels good to know that we are being invited because we are recognized for our positive contributions to the community."
