I posted Ludacris song "Politics: Obama is here" on yesterday. Well according to Bossip Obama is not happy about the song and thinks Luda should be ashamed. His campaign released this statement....
“As Barack Obama has said many, many times in the past, rap lyrics today too often perpetuate misogyny, materialism, and degrading images that he doesn’t want his daughters or any children exposed to,” explained spokesman Bill Burton. “This song is not only outrageously offensive to Senator Clinton, Reverend Jackson, Senator McCain, and President Bush, it is offensive to all of us who are trying to raise our children with values we hold dear. While Ludacris is a talented individual he should be ashamed of these lyrics.”
Wow, this is the second time Ludacris has came under attack for his music. First it was from Bill O'Reilly's decrepit, hating ass now Obama. While his lyrics were harsh, funny but harsh, he does have the right to say whatever he please. Free speech allows him too. Hell, Fox news does it and gets away with it. It's funny; you never really hear Luda's name in anything but when you finally do, it HITS THE FAN.
This is like deja vu...I really hope this doesn't mess up his deal with AT&T.

That's a load of crap. Jay-Z can say "F*ck Bush" at his shows. Kanye can go on a rant about Bush not caring for black people. Eminem can roast Hilary and Bill on his first album, and roast Bush on "Mosh." Nas can roast Messy Jackson. Hell, Messy Jackson can roast Obama, but when it comes to Luda...he's like the field slave of hiphop. MTV overlooks him (see Hottest Rapper List, then think of the last rapper to win a grammy for Rap album of the year). Complete bull crap!
I'm sorry, A.Red, I couldn't get passed the airbrushed hairline.
*ducks from flying shoe headed towards my head*
Damn the song, WTF is up with his side burns!?!
"he's like the field slave of hiphop."
FTFO!! Couldn't have said it better!!
Jay Curtis, dead, reading from heaven with the other field slaves. FTFO. I can't take it. To much. But Obama did treat this shit outa his ass. Hecky naw joe.

HHAHAHAHAHA! @ A.Red.
Gives Fashionably Late a cyber hi-five.
You guys are right...everyone else can do or say wtf they want, but when Luda opens his mouth, all hell breaks loose! Its only because what they nigga be saying is the truth with no holds barred! You know when we do that the WPs get either scared or angry. And Barack really didn't have a choice but to say what he said whether he agreed or not, simply because if he hadn't he would have been accused of being biased and lost votes.
