Actor/singer Ray J has built a rather diverse entertainment resume with five albums and various dramatic and reality television appearances. But according to a recent interview with AllHipHop.com, his most surprising career move has yet to be seen.
“I want to be the mayor of Carson California,” Ray told AllHipHop. The Los Angeles suburb has spawned a dozen or so celebrities, including Ras Kass, Bishop Lamont and one Willie Norwood Jr. (a.k.a. Ray J). With a crime rate significantly lower than the national average and an unemployment rate nearly 30 percent higher than the national average, what changes would the aspiring Mayor Norwood like to see?
“I would show young kids how to aspire to go be a mayor or aspire to be a doctor or a lawyer,” he said. “This Hip Hop shit and this music industry has got a lot of people clouded. They think it’s the only way to go, or to put out a sex tape and be successful. That shit is wack. You have to go out and use your true talent and read and learn. If I can inspire that by everything I’ve been through, then let me be the answer.”
For now Mayor Jim Dear and Carson’s population of nearly 100,000 will have to wait. Ray J is still focused on his entertainment career.
“I still got a lot of learning to do—a lot of focusing, a lot of reaching back out to the community and a lot of paying my dues.”
like anyone would take this nigga seriously after knowing he made a sex tape and with a lousy music career doin tracks with the new boyz. fuck outta here. the only one who would care is t-pain who has a thing for ray js meat.
so what? he likes having sex with hot women and make his own music that people love. He also is a good hearted person who wants to support the youth.
You should be bowing down to him because you miserable.
I never thought I’d see the phrase “having sex with hot women” be followed up with “good hearted person who wants to support the youth” hahaha
nooo towel let it air dry!
Does anybody else find it funny that there’s an advertisement for 50 Cent’s “Curtis” behind Ray J?
“Brady’s little brother”? Who’s Brady?

Ray j is the male version of Tela Tequila. I know lynching is not cool but maybe one more wouldn’t hurt
LOL damn…
This fool will not be Mayor of my city! Carson is just fine. we dont need no inexperienced fool running our city. this is just another publicity stunt that will be added on to his failure! Ray J please get a 9-5 your not trying to do any good because you would of been done something for Carson. And it must suck to see Kim K do bigger things than you when you put her on the map. Damn you get no credit $$$ sick of these dumb celebs.

What’s Ray J’s political agenda, free condoms for everyone over the age of 18?
He’d definitely burn “C-Arson” to the ground.
Kim HAD to get ass implants. Her ass was lil in the tape. Off topic, but still
Well, California did have the fucking Terminator for Governor, so why not Ray J Mayor right? Damn Californian’s are drinking too much of that fucked up Mexico water if they get this dude in as Mayor.
I’m from Carson, and this guy makes me want to vote republican. Fuck him.
