Once again the Leftist are trying their best to tear the good old USA apart.

This is absolutely irresponsible BET to allow this garbage on TV.

George Sorors is probably behind the funding of this event.

Rapper 'Ludacris'

Lyrics to Ludacris' Obama rap song, "Obama Is Here":

"Hey... I'm back on it

like I just signed my record deal, yeah the best is here

The Bentley Coupe paint is drippin wet, it got sex appeal

Never shoulda hated, you never shoulda doubted him

With a slot in the President's iPod, Obama shouted him

Said I handled my biz and I'm one of his favorite rappers

Well give Luda a special pardon if I'm ever in the slammer

Better yet put me in office, make me a Vice President

Hillary hated on you so that bitch is irrelevant

Now Jesse talkin slick and apologizin for WHAT~?!

If you said it then you MEANT it how you want it, head or gut

And all you other politicians tryin to hate on my man

Watch us win majority vote in every STATE on my man

You cain't stop what's 'bout to happen, we 'bout to make history

The first black President it's destined and it's meant to be

The threats ain't fazin us, the nooses or the jokes

Get off your ass black people it's time to get out and vote

Paint the White House black and I'm sure that's got 'em terrified

McCain don't belong in ANY chair unless he's paralyzed

Yeah I said it cause Bush is mentally handicapped

Ball up all of his speeches and just throw 'em like candy wraps

Cause what you talkin I hear nothin even relevant

And you the worst of all 43 Presidents

Get out and vote, or the end'll be near

And the world is ready for change cause Obama is here

YEAHHH! Cause Obama is here

The world is ready for change cause Obama is here

Yeahhhh, cause Obama is here

Say world is ready for change cause Obama is here

Hey!

It’s all about the elections. Racist Democrats view blacks as manipulable pawns. They need to keep emotions high because black dissatisfaction with Democrats is running high. This is meant to scare off Republican outreach.

"Performing his song “Alright,” the 28-year-old rapped about overcoming his struggles."

I believe the word is pronounced AI-yeet in the community.

Just more “Street Rats’ doing what they do. None of them have any WORK skills.

I guess you COULD call a “Rapper” a worker but nothing they do of physical nature would be contributing to the GNP.

Most of them seem to commit as many crimes as professional rappers as when “aspiring” ones.
