MASTER P GIVEN KEY TO MEMPHIS

Rap mogul MASTER P has been handed the key to the city of Memphis, Tennessee.
The hip-hop star - a reformed gangsta rapper - was given the honour during the inaugural Let The Kids Grow Day, which took place at the Mud Island Amphitheatre on Saturday (02Aug08).
The back-to-school event is aimed at teaching youngsters about the importance of education and the dangers of drugs and crime, reports AllHipHop.com.
Presenting the rapper - real name Percy Miller - with the accolade, Memphis Mayor Willie Herenton told the crowds, "No other rapper or entertainer is as committed to the community as Master P and I am proud of him.
"Master P changed his life and took the negativity out of his music but stayed true to the hood."
