'Gigolos' Nick Hawk's music video is just as ridiculous as the reality show
Showtime's late night skein "Gigolos" certainly blurs the line between reality television and softcore porn as it follows a handful of male escorts in Las Vegas.
Similarly, "Gigolos" cast member Nick Hawk's music video for his single "Gigolow" (see what he did there?!) blurs the line between horrible and brilliant as he slings poetic verses like "I make a big entrance/I like to be naked." Another Nick, this time of the "Cannon" variety, once rapped about being a "gigolo, spending lots of dough," but Hawk's take on the lifestyle (bred from personal experience) far exceeds Cannon's Top 40 hit.
Kudos to Hawk, though, for issuing credit where credit is due. Whilst flanked by women gyrating around and wielding champagne, Hawk proclaims, "People know the part I'm playing/And it's my time to show/It's Showtime, time to let the cameras roll/It's way too late, I made a deal and sold my soul."
That's some reality skein contract.

The show is funny as hell and decent, the music video is whatever and you're right, definitely better then Nick Cannon. I think this white boy may actually have a shot. Lyrics are complex, creative, and original. And he actually is a gigolo unlike most rappers rapping about it.
