Makin' Magic

Meet Don "Magic" Juan. A well known guy in the music industry. Known most famously for being a hip-hop artist, he was first introduced to the public by Snoop Dogg as Snoop's very own "spiritual adviser". Secondly, he is known for being a fashion designer starring in various rap music videos for his high class taste in style. Lastly he is popular for being a retired high end pimp from Chicago. Don "Magic" Juan's birth name is actually Donald Campbell but decided to change it for the publicity I suppose. What better name for an x-pimp than Don Juan? The name is now slang for "womanizer" in Spanish. The story of D.J. was written by romantic poet Lord Byron which wasn't too far from the life Byron actually lived. If you haven't already read the previous post by Baily on the poem I'll give you a little background information. Basically Don Juan was a player, and in the end is punished for the despair he had left to every woman in his path. That's about it. Just kidding read the poem yourself to find out what happens and the full story, there’s much more to it than that. So the statement Don "Magic" Juan is making with his "new" name is probably accurate for Magic's old lifestyle. Here are some of the song's Don guest stars in, adding a little bit of his own magic to each, "Pimpin Ain't Easy", "P.I.M.P Remix”, "Pimp on" and a classical favorite "A Pimp's Christmas song". It may seem like Don's life is all work and no play but he fits in the fun when he can, that is when Don's not too busy serving as a bishop for his church. Christianity is the reason Don no longer works in the explicit business. Church turned his whole life around making him realize the person he could be, and that he didn’t have to stick with such a shady business. It also must have converted him to read fine literature. Unlike Don Juan the fictional character, Don "Magic" Juan will be going to heaven.
