Obama’s Thumbs Down To Luda

Published by Carrie Blackshaw on Thursday, July 31, 2008 at 2:39 pm.

Barack Obama must love seeing his mug splashed across the chest of Halle Berry but
he didn’t react positively to Ludacris’ new rap that calls Hillary Clinton
a b%@^*, says John McCain “don’t belong in any chair unless he’s paralyzed” and
insults Jesse Jackson and George W. Bush.

Obama campaign spokesman Bill Burton issued a statement, condemning Luda for his,
well ludicrous, lyrics.

“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. 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 the values
we hold dear. While Ludacris is a talented individual he should be ashamed of these
lyrics.”

Yet Luda and other rap stars have the nerve to wonder how come Oprah doesn’t often
have them on her show.

Luda, who encourages blacks to get out and vote in the new rap, and Barack were
cool so what does this do to their relationship? The two met privately in Chicago
and talked about young people back in 2006 before Barack announced his plans to
run for president. He seemed conflicted about Ludacris in his recent cover story
in Rolling Stone, saying,
“I know Jay-Z. I know Ludacris. I know Russell Simmons. I know a bunch of
these guys. They are great talents and great businessmen, which is something that
doesn’t get emphasized enough. It would be nice if I could have my daughters
listen to their music without me worrying that they were getting bad images of themselves.”

In other Barack and celeb news, McCain shows how old and outdated he is by taking
a swipe at Barack in a new TV ad that calls Barack, “the biggest celebrity in the
world” and flashes footage of Barack then Britney Spears then Paris Hilton to give
the impression that Barack is all celebrity and no substance while questioning his
leadership. Uh, couldn’t his ad men have thought of some more current celebs than
these two irrelevant chicks whose time has come and gone?

Why would Luda make such negative comments?? Non of your readers commented because they see noting wrong with it. I’m the the richest person in the world but your followers are so Ghetto. BET your shows are so whack. I find that insulting and I hope we get it together. Chris Rock was right when he said there are Niggas and Black folks….the Niggas get angry when they hear this but they know who they are…so low life.
