On Tuesday afternoon, I received the following missive via text from KKFI DJ Kool Wayne:

“If u msd my actn debut on vh1 movi las nite u a dumass..dnt b a dummr ass&mis me on AMERICAN GANGSTER this thursday @ 9.”

I can only hope it was a mass text, for I would hate for Kool Wayne to consider me a dumbass. I haven’t been able to get him on the phone yet, so I don’t know about the VH1 acting debut. But according to bet.com, this week’s episode of American Gangster is about the Romper Room Gang and their homie, hyphy rap pioneer Mac Dre, who was slain in Kansas City in 2004. Presumably, the American Gangster people interviewed Kool Wayne, as The Pitch did for the story of the bloodfight between Mac Dre and Fat Tone.
