Luda knows (or I thought he did) he is too high profile for this - of course it would get noticed. I know he didn't think he was gonna be the hiphop artist to perform at one of the inauguration concerts, did he?? Common has that gig on LOCK.
Then another part of me ask why can't Ludacris say what he wants "Free speech " Folks. Also, dumbass Obama should have known better to be seen with certain rappers sing about hoes, guns, drugs etc... Come now Obama camp you guys can't be out there talking about getting the womans vote and then be taken pictures with folks who trash women.
Get it together Obama! As for Luda he was just being hisself..
No, it does not that is why Obama should really stop taking pictures with these dudes and if he asked again what music he likes lie and say "Nat King Cole or anything old school."
Thanks for posting this Jill - and not posting my actual email:)
Of course, this is the same Ludacris that was photographed with Warren Buffett and Bill Gates the other day - but they won't have to answer for him unless he brags about it in his next song. http://dealbreaker.com/2008/07/caption_contest_...
I agree he was being selfish, it's all about riding Obama's wave to get a few bucks in sales. He just sat down and threw something together in a couple minutes to take advantage of the news cycles.
Everybody's hustling and trying to make a buck....off Obama.
That would be too much like RIGHT!
Imagine the thoughtful, seering rhymes he could have made about Bush or McCain or even Hillary. Something that shows he's read a paper or understands the issues that separate Obama from McCain and Bush (the war, McCain not knowing the difference between Sunnis and Shiites, McCain waxing rhapsodic about the situation on the non-existent "Iraq/Pakistan border."
Like you, I'm hardly a rap connoisseur, but a true lyricist could have done something really powerful here.
i really don't think this "song" is going to be a big deal though.
What makes us think Ludicris is trying to help Barack?
..............................................................................................................
Honestly, my first thought is Luda just wanted to make a hard edge sung about Obama. And being the typical rapper Ludacris just had to thrown in bitch or hoe to make the rap extra spicy for Fox News...LOL
Now, we all know if he really wanted to help Obama he would just sung praise about Obama and left the reference to Hillary and McCain out. But then again maybe old dude smoked so much weed he didn't think his lyrics about Obama would get noticed.
The media is trying to link Obama with everyone on planet earth to bring him down. I personally don't believe the man will ever be president. Why? Because the Black race has a history of selling out their own. Just wait some white man is going to offer money to the first crab in the barrel.
But my head still hurts.

Heavens to Betsy DO NOT call me or any other woman of any other color a bitch!

Also none of these people had a problem when Ludacris was calling black women bitches in his song, but heavens to Betsy don't call Miss Hillary a bitch!
White Woman In Distress and Under Fire! OMG! White Woman's Honor Under Attack!
I suggest that we boycott his records and send a clear message to him that terms such as bitch, niggers, hoes etc is TOTALLY unacceptable.
Don't get me wrong, I hate censorship and can't stand some of the fake "discussions" our (black) community often has about rap lyrics, etc.
HOWEVER . . . that doesn't excuse a person from using his brain. And, on my list of priorities, I'd rather not have a national debate on hip hop when we've got bigger fish to fry (ohhh I don't know, like winning a PRESIDENTIAL ELECTION).
That's what gets me about this story. Luda ain't stupid. I actually think he's one of the more clever lyricists in the game (whether people like his lyrics is a separate issue). But I don't think he's dumb. So why did he even go there? He's talented enough to have been a little more creative in his approach (will.i.am is a great example).
THINK, PEOPLE! THINK! Folks coming out their mouth way too early, thinking Obama got this on lock. We've got 4 looooong months to go. Speak and act strategically.
The Hillary supporters are screaming about "sexism!" but one of her biggest supporters made his fortune off of...sexism.
It's fake. Fake outrage. Hillary gets up in the newspaper screaming about sexism, but one of her biggest fundraisers/supporters made his $$$ off of sexism. Hillary screams about sexism but one of her biggest surrogates claimed Hillary was more of a man than Obama was and had the body parts to prove it. And all Hillary did was shuck and buck like a simpering fool when he said that. Geriatric Ferraro gets up on TV crying about the dudes carryign in the IRON MY SHIRT sign, but not one person questioned her as to HOW these dudes were able to sneak in a big ass IRON MY SHIRT sign and get down to the front row with it. It's all phony. I need for all this fake outrage and tomfoolery to stop.

Luda is a grown ass man, I don't know who he was trying to play tuff guy for, with those ghetto lyrics. The important thing is this shows how lazy some rapper artist have become.
But we all knnow the game...Be on the look out for a new Luda album in about 2 months. That was a pure publicity stunt on Luda's part.

To help bring him down.
Thanks for clearing that up, Bro.
You never fail me. :-)
Foil antenna going up... Do you think that Luda is working for the Billary camp on the low?? (as I look over my shoulder) lol
These rappers have done so much dirt, it would be easy to blackmail one of them.
Obama, dude... Not helping. It's like Harvard failed you. Like you don't know what reparations are. Brown vs. Board and all that MLK civil rights stuff (and affirmative action) is supposed to be about that good schools and jobs stuff.
"Chris Rock had a routine. He said some-too many of our men..."
Obama, dude... NOT helping. You know that sh*t came from Rock's "N*ggers vs. Black people" routine. It's like Harvard failed you, quoting a comedian... It's like you subscribe to some of that Juan Williams bs that Black people have become more than one race.
Luda, you are a certiable idiot!
T.
ps. I mean, Luda, you must have been under the influence of something, right? First amendment blah, blah, blah, you could have procalimed your support for Obama in a more positive way! Why give our opponents ammunition, dude? I mean, we are on the cusp, and you do this?????????? F*cking degenerate!
people know the right is going to use this, even though luda was using words and not a gun...not like he went on a hate filled rampage against conservatives and neo-con(victs) in a church and killed two people during a childrens' performance ..... oh, sh*t didn't that....
HEY, WHAT'S WITH THE CENSOR SHIP ANYWAY?!!!
but, oh well, here we go again... is mccain responsible for every word uttered by everyone of his supporters. how about phil gram's comments? WOW, its all in our heads not being able to buy gas, food, and pay bills all on two checks. i guess a "nation of whiners" can look past that because he was only the economic adviser on the mccain ticket....but we know whats REALLY important.
a rap lyric...... and we all know how so very relevant rap is!!!
people need to ask, who has a bigger impact on THEIR life?
some guy talking..... or some guy making policy?
bunch of "whiners".
