Someone at the Oxygen network has a problem with Black people. That's the only way to explain how a show called "All My Babies' Mamas" about Atlanta rapper Shawty Lo and his 10 baby mothers is allegedly making it onto televisions across America, and the world.
Shadow & Act reports that the one hit wonder (name another smash other than "Dey Know"...quick...thought so) and G-Unit rapper will star in the one off show. Thank heavens it's not a series.
The project will center on the complicated lives of one man, his many women, and their many children.
Further... the series which comes from creative duo Liz Gateley and Tony DiSanto of DiGa Vision...
... will capture the highs and lows of this extreme 'blended family' that is anything but ordinary, while also showing the drama and the passion behind life's most unexpected situations.
In addition, Cori Abraham, Senior Vice President of Development at Oxygen Media, says:

One of my black conscious friends asked for my opinion on this upcoming reality show.I said that,of course,some black folk will find this degrading stereotype-wise,but in all fairness, we have reality shows like "Jersey Shore","Honey Boo-Boo" and "Redneck Island",so a show like this would fit right in with the "SMH(shake my head)-TV" phenom.White folks have always been willing to pay big money for silly,degrading entertainment.
Will I watch it?Probably.I'll be curious to find out which baby-mamma(s)will show-out for more camera time,while trying to be the most outrageous on the show.What does this have to do with BSFS?Well,maybe this old trend will turn out to the FUTURE(more acceptable)trend for EVERYONE.
PEACE!
