[Major Matt Mason]

Kilpatrick came to office as the face of youth and energy, a former legislator called the “hip-hop mayor.”

Lol! If this is true, why would anyone be surprised at this outcome? Not that a "rock n' roll mayor" would be any better, but the sleaze of the hip hop industry is second to none.

I think the "Motor City Madman" would be much better.
