The New York City metropolitan area has been collectively digging itself out from a major snowstorm all day long — so it’s only natural that many of the stars who live in New York took to Twitter to comment on the storm and its aftermath. Here’s what a few rock and hip-hop stars had to say today.

Rolling Stone's Best of 2010: Music, Movies, Videos, Photos and More

50 Cent:
I'm going out to shovel snow and see if I can make me a few extra dollars today. I'm charging more if they want to take pictures

I want a hundred dollars per house. I bet anybody ill make a grand moving snow today. Lol

I got 4 people on one street to agree to my fee after they saw the first job I did. Now I'm looking for employees.

this snow moving business is just to see if laws apply to every business. After the first job I got 4 more now I have 3 kid I hired.

One is a cute kid he has on a snow suit. So I'm sending him to ring the door bell to ask if we can shovel there snow. Lol 

Diddy (who would never let a little snow get in the way of promoting his new album — then again, is that surprising?):
ATTN EVERYONE! The LTTP Promo will NOT stop-so just embrace it LOL +get your blizzard party started right> http://diddy.it/i7he4k LOL #LTTP

Chris Baio, Vampire Weekend:
This is shaping up to be the most post-apocalyptic day of my life.

Rostam Batmanglij, Vampire Weekend:
Back in NY. Snow outside my window is careening upwards. Visibility is zero

relied on train, subway, and hiking through snow

Vampire Weekend's Contra named the Number Six album of 2010

Asher Roth:
Update: @NottzRaw has made it safely through 16 inches of snow in VA to retrieve all files from the Durt Factory.

Ted Leo:
Question: 1st time living in a building w/a super in a while. I'm not supposed to shovel for the whole place, right? That IS his job, right?
