Rapper Yo Yo Engaged To Highland Park, Mi Mayor

I Love Hip Hop Blog - via FuturisticBlogger.com — Congratulation… Legendary West coast emcee Yo Yo is now engaged to Highland Park, Michigan Mayor DeAndre Windom. The announcement was made during Yolanda “Yo-Yo” Whitaker 40th Birthday Celebration at Club Rooftop 3100 in Los Angeles. Mayor DeAndre Windom has a tough job on his hands mainly because Highland Park is considered one of the worst neighborhoods near Detroit.

Highland Park recently made national news when the debt-ridden community could no longer afford its monthly electric bill. So elected officials not only turned off 1,000 streetlights. They had them ripped out – bulbs, poles and all. Now nightfall cloaks most neighborhoods in inky darkness. The city is $58 million in debt and has many more people than jobs, plus dozens of burned-out or vacant houses and buildings. With fewer than 12,000 residents, its population has dwindled to half the level from 20 years ago. (Huffington Post)
