Obviously, anything Obama says is pretty stupid to begin with. But, black musicians have been great innovators and gave quite a lot of creative energy to music. Of course, Obama's too interested in creating division to know what most have known for decades.

Ever since Chuck Berry played Maybellene, we've loved rock and roll, and didn't care one bit who played it.

Music, like sports has probably been an area that has brought more different kinds of people together than anything the politicians try to do.

Man, that guy could screw up a $&it sandwich.

Blacks shouldn’t be referred to as African American unless they can find the continent of Africa on a map at the first try.

Too bad there are only 12 months.

By the time we celebrate 12 months of Black culture there isn’t anything left for White Appreciation month.

Every month is black music appreciation month, and on almost every station. Almost all American music has massive black roots.

Ramadan starts June 6th and takes an entire month. I am surprised he would declare a month that Ramadan typically falls into as something else.

Not to mention that most of that music does not require affirmative action. It makes it on his own. This is just more of Berry In Your Face (BiYF).

I swear he has a daily to-do list titled: What to do today to needle Americans.

The community organizer pandering and empowering street thugs.

He knows what he’s doing. His true spiritual father has given him marching orders.

Hope he laughs it up now. One day he’ll meet the God of Israel.


Revelation 20:11-15 King James Version (KJV)

11 And I saw a great white throne, and him that sat on it, from whose face the earth and the heaven fled away; and there was found no place for them.

12 And I saw the dead, small and great, stand before God; and the books were opened: and another book was opened, which is the book of life: and the dead were judged out of those things which were written in the books, according to their works.

13 And the sea gave up the dead which were in it; and death and hell delivered up the dead which were in them: and they were judged every man according to their works.

14 And death and hell were cast into the lake of fire. This is the second death.

15 And whosoever was not found written in the book of life was cast into the lake of fire.

Thanks to his cousin, Marvin Berry.

Let’s celebrate George Gershwin. The best African American Music was composed by a white guy.

This one is for Obama

“Cult Of Personality” - Living Colour

Look in my eyes, what do you see?
The cult of personality
I know your anger, I know your dreams
I’ve been everything you want to be

I’m the cult of personality
Like Mussolini and Kennedy
I’m the cult of personality
The cult of personality
The cult of personality

Neon lights, Nobel Prize
When a mirror speaks, the reflection lies
You won’t have to follow me
Only you can set me free

I sell the things you need to be
I’m the smiling face on your TV
I’m the cult of personality
I exploit you, still you love me
I tell you one and one makes three

I’m the cult of personality
Like Joseph Stalin and Gandhi
I’m the cult of personality
The cult of personality
The cult of personality

Neon lights, a Nobel Prize
When a leader speaks, that leader dies
You won’t have to follow me
Only you can set you free

You gave me fortune
You gave me fame
You gave me power in your God’s name
I’m every person you need to be
I’m the cult of personality
