HIP HOP’S ‘DOWN LOW’ IN NEW TELL ALL: Gay author details relationships with closeted film stars, rappers and music producers.(February 6, 2007)
*Former MTV producer Terrance Dean has written a new memoir about his life as a gay, black man and his dating exploits within the entertainment industry. “Hiding in Hip-Hop: Confessions of a Down Low Brother in the Entertainment Industry” – sold to Atria last week, according to Publishers Marketplace – is said to cover “the author's life as a closeted homosexual working in the film and music industry and his relationships with other closeted homosexuals—film stars, rap artists, and music producers.” Unlike other recent industry tell-alls from Karrine Steffans and Carmen Bryan, Dean does not name names in his book, which Atria plans to release in 2008. However, a spokeswoman for the publisher said Dean’s descriptions of the closeted men will be quite obvious. "Let's put it this way: You'll know who they are," she said, according to Radar.com. "It's a no-holds-barred look at Hollywood and hip-hop and who's living on the down-low."
