Oh shit, it was Carl!
Just received a followup email from the guy who emailed me yesterday saying Drake's video ho Shakur gave him genital warts, He said she was dating someone from XXL named Charles. I don't know anyone there named Charles (not that I know hardly anyone who works there), but I thought it might be this guy Carl I used to work with.
And I quote:
Yes you are right his name is Carl not Charles the person who told me he was the guy just text me and said it was Carl. I don't know the guy personally I just remember seeing his name in Shakur's text messages and it started with a C and he worked for XXL magazine.
I should have known something was up when they gave a video ho her own guest blog.
You'll recall that, earlier this year, I laid out my plan to score with one of the girls from XXL's Eye Candy section, in one of the very few columns I wrote for the dead tree version of the magazine. Then, a while later, I read where some guy had been caught tricking women into having sex with him by claiming he worked for XXL.
Carl has since left XXL for BET. Hmm...
