Just found this excerpt from an interview in XXX Magazine with Kurupt from 8/1/8 and it left me gob smacked. I wonder what happened to this?! It sounds like a fun, wild idea. I know it's an old interview but hopefully it's still possible! 
Here it is --------
On MTV, you were recently a part of the Celebrity Rap Superstar show. What was it like working on the show with Sebastian Bach?
That was bomb right there. He’s turned out to be a friend for the long run. Our friendship started from the MTV situation and it’s going to end with us seeing our kids get old. Out of that situation, me and Sebastian have our own show that we’re working on with MTV.
Is the show going to be about you guys recording in the studio together or what?
It’s bigger than that. It’s about our families. The rock & roll family and the hip-hop family. [It’s] also about me and Sebastian going to different places—like when I go on tour with Snoop, I will be bringing him with me. In turn, I’ll be going on rock & roll tours with Sebastian. We’re also going to do an album together.
You two are doing an official album together?
We’ve got to do it! Rock-hop!
Was he hard to coach on the show?
Not at all! Sebastian is a natural for music. At first, I was out to convert him, but at the end of the day I realized that he didn’t have to be converted because he was already there. He got on the mic and was spittin’. I was actually shocked. All I had to do was point him in the right direction and he flew with it.
Do you feel that he got hosed with the voting?
I told Sebastian, “You can’t go up against the Double-D’s.” It’s the truth. Sex sells and sex has always been a big part of hip-hop. I’ve always felt that the people with the most skills get the short of the stick in the rap game. Concepts always kills skills when it comes to selling records. But also the people who he lost to, like Shar Jackson, she’s sick! Shar and my Playboy homegirl Kendra are so lovable. It’s hard to beat lovable people like that. Kendra showed the most growth out of everybody to be honest. That contest wasn’t about skills, but about growth. The people saw that growth in Shar, Kendra and Sebastian.
Is the reality show that you’re doing with Sebastian Bach written in stone already?
Yes, we’ve already signed. We’re going to start shooting at the beginning of the year. The first thing we’re going to do is take a little trip with our families and go enjoy ourselves. With me and Sebastian, it’s so entertaining. It’s comedy because we’re so alike, but so different at the same time.

I don't remember Sebastian talking about this. Do you?
