When you talk about an astounding physique these days, you can do no better than the amazing Angel Melaku, sometimes known as Angel Lola Luv. She was born Melaku S. Fershgenet on October 24, 1986, of an Ethiopian mother and a Trinidadian father. For the last couple of years, this Angel appearaned on countless magazine covers and videos.

Of the many things I love about this model (and believe me, there are many things!), is that besides doing the usual hip-hop bikini, thong or G-string shoots, Angel takes part in more elaborate photo fantasies, of which I can mention a marvelous homage to pin-up Betty Grable’s most famous photograph. So here are a couple of Angel shots:

Booty lovers, unite! I’ll make this clear and precise: Elke the Stallion constantly displays an amazing behind to the joy of millions of fans around the world. Who am I to argue? That beauty was born in Germany and was destined to a career as a secretary. But fate intervened and now we can all gaze at her hourglass figure in the comfort of our respective home. She’s 5″7′, 155 pounds, and her measures are 36-27-42 and is a very pleasing blend of German, Black, and Latin roots, wouldn’t you say?

Another contender for the crown of Hip Hop Model Queen can be Summer Walker. It is of course evident that she more than displays the physical attributes for the title. Geez, does she ever (ah, let’s note for posterity: 36DD-25-39!). She was born on September 28, 1984, in Beaumont, Texas and began modeling in Atlanta.

Summer soon after appeared in music videos from Ying Yang Twins, Kanye West, Snoop Dogg and David Banner, among others. Of course, she was also many times the prime choice to grace the cover of music and men’s magazines.

Here are some galleries and don’t forget the official site (which seems strangely abandoned?). Shake! Shake! Shake!:

I’m delighted to share with you another kind of spotlight that will be an occasional feature on this blog: hip hop hotties! Yes, the majority of them are merely perceived as deluxe eye candy, but more often than not, you’ll be surprised to meet some very interesting ladies.

Let’s begin with maybe the most fabulous of them all, Miss Melyssa Ford, Queen of steamy videos and legendary sexy calendars! She was born on November 7, 1976, in Toronto, Canada, of Russian, Norwegian and Barbadian roots. She was discovered while working as a bartender and soon began modeling, appearing in music videos alongside Usher, Ludacris, Mystikal and Jay-Z, among many others. Her voluptuous form is the reason why she’s been nicknamed Jessica Rabbit, in honor of the cartoon character. Melyssa has also done countless magazine covers for such publications as King, Maxim and XXL.

Her line of calendars will melt the paint off your walls, so beware. She appeared in a couple of movies and will even play a doctor in the upcoming film God’s Prayer, so what’s not to like? Here’s some choice links, with of course access to her official site.
