HEBREW HIP HOP: You can’t say Tone Loc doesn’t do weddings. The rap star, who’s supposedly finishing his l-o-o-o-ng -awaited follow-up to his mega-hit debut album, took time out last Sunday for a very unusual performance at his manager Marty Schwartz’s wedding. On crutches thanks to a touch-football injury, Loc took the stage at the Bel Air Hotel and rapped, in Hebrew, his rendition of the Jewish melody, “Adon Olom.” . . . Meanwhile, Big Daddy Kane doesn’t put his songs out to pasture when his albums come out--he’s constantly updating the message. So when rap’s black Caesar played “The Arsenio Hall Show” the other night, he tipped his hat to Madonna’s current single by changing the lyrics to his new song, “ ‘Cause I Do It Right.” The original version: “ ‘Cause my man Babyface says it’s no crime, and of course I work Diana Ross overtime.” Kane’s hot new rhyme: “I’m the type of freak you never heard of, not even Madonna can justify my love.”
