January 1st, 2008 by Kristofer

So after squandering his monies and going broke from partying too much we’re hearing back from Mc Hammer!

So in 2008 he’s gonna try and make a come back and he’s got some big ambitions apparently by challenging YouTube with his new startup set to launch later this month. The website want to : “become the Internet’s hub for sharing and watching dance videos.”

Is there like a market for that? Maybe something I don’t know about?

Excerpt:

“MC Hammer hasn’t topped the music charts since the early 1990s, but the former rap star says he has another hit in him — only this time around he’ll produce it as a Silicon Valley entrepreneur.

Hammer, whose real name is Stanley Burrell, is choreographing a new career as co-founder and chief strategy officer of Menlo Park-based DanceJam.com.”
