PRESIDENT OBAMA REVEALS HIS FAVORITE SONG OF 2015 (take a look at album cover - dead white judge)
Rap-Up ^ | 12/9/2015

The President of the United States is a K-Dot fan. Barack Obama has chosen Kendrick Lamar's "How Much a Dollar Cost" as his favorite song of 2015.

In an interview with PEOPLE, Obama says that he can't get enough of the powerful song, which appears on Lamar's Grammy-nominated album To Pimp a Butterfly.

TOPICS: Culture/Society
KEYWORDS: music; obama
The message of the song "How Much a Dollar Cost" is that God is present in the poor and beggars, and that the rich, including Lamar, dismiss them at their peril. The album cover is something of a different nature:

Celebrating black men in front of White House, with champagne and money in hand, over the body of a dead white judge.

There really are different standards, aren't there? No white politician could ever get away with saying he had just heard the one song, and never seen the cover art, had there been some kind of analogous race reversal. No mainstream music company would touch it; Amazon wouldn't sell it, and no comparable white artist would have any following greater than a few thousand neo-Nazis; he wouldn't be topping the charts, and not a single self-hating black would be giving him a dime.

And although some conservatives are calling Obama out on this, I would bet no reporter will ask him to his face, “Did you SEE that album cover?”

And then Putin responds with his favorite song:

It just means Obama knows a President Mrs. Clinton will nominate him to the Supreme Court when the time comes. It’s a premonition.

The low level of his musical taste is exceeded only by the non-existent level of his patriotism.

“How Much a Dollar Cost”

Is that a common core math question? Unfortunately, most of the kids and obama would get it wrong.

Obama wishes he were authentically black, but he is not.

He is the very embodiment of what used to be known as a mulatto--half-negro, half white, and historically despised by both cultures.

This is yet another attempt by obama to keep up the facade that he’s “black” ... that he’s “a cool dude” ... when in fact, he is neither.

I actually liked “These Walls”, one of the songs on that album. It had a very distinct melancholy feel and a good groove. I think hip hop today is much better than before due to the introduction of trip hop and experimental/instrumental hip hop. Soul is coming back into influence in today’s music, and it makes me happy. I still need to lookup the other songs, it was a unique album.

Or Judge John Roll? Obama certainly made use of his murder.

"Black thug" pose with body of dead white judge in front of the White House!

Is this the confession of a "black thug" in the White House?

Is the judge on the cover Judge Harold Haley? I admit I never heard of him but did a search on Haley and this rapper. Can believe Soetoro would declare this his favorite.

Malia likes cop killing, whitey hating nasty language Pro Era.

How fitting. Here’s the lyrics to Moo’s favorite “Uptown Funk”

“Gotta kiss myself I’m so pretty
I’m too hot (hot dam)
Call the po-lice and the fireman
I’m too hot (hot dam)
Make a dragon wanna retire, man
I’m too hot (hot dam)
Say my name you know who I am
I’m too hot (hot dam)
And my band ‘bout that money”

Nothing so much to do with the album, but it immediately came to my mind when I saw the title "Dead White Judge." Judge Harold Haley was forcibly abducted in 7 Aug. 1970 from his courtroom in Marin County, CA by Jonathan Jackson, the younger brother of George Jackson who was incarcerated at San Quentin (and later killed in an attempted escape) in attempt to free his brother. You can find pictures of the attempt, with Jackson holding a sawed-off shotgun taped to the Judges neck, which later "went-off" killing the Judge with this URL.

Angela Davis was charged with procuring the weapons for those people, but was let off on a technicality. Baracl Obama is the ideological heir to these people, and I made the mental connection with Judge Haley. These pictures don't get shown much anymore...for some reason.
