Ludacris Releases Song Attacking Hillary Clinton
Ludacris, rapper and avid supporter of Barack Obama (Obama once claimed to have Ludacris in heavy rotation on his iPod) has released a new song called 'Politics: Obama Is Here' in which he attacks Hillary Clinton as an 'irrelevant bitch'.

Lyrics:
I'm back on it like I just signed my record deal
yeah the best is here, the Bentley Coup paint is dripping wet, it got sex appeal
never should have hated
you never should've doubted him
with a slot in the president's iPod Obama shattered 'em
Said I handled his biz and I'm one of his favorite rappers
Well give Luda a special pardon if I'm ever in the slammer
Better yet put him in office, make me your vice president
Hillary hated on you, so that b^$&%* is irrelevant
Jesse talking slick and apologizing for what?
if you said it then you meant it how you want it have a gut!
and all you other politicians trying to hate on my man,
watch us win a majority vote in every state on my man
you can't stop what's bout to happen, we bout to make history
the first black president is destined and it's meant to be
the threats ain't fazing us, the nooses or the jokes
so get off your ass, black people, it's time to get out and vote!
paint the White House black and I'm sure that's got 'em terrified
McCain don't belong in ANY chair unless he's paralyzed
Yeah I said it cause Bush is mentally handicapped
Ball up all of his speeches and I throw em like candy wrap
cause what you talking I hear nothing even relevant
and you the worst of all 43 presidents
get out and vote or the end will be near
the world is ready for change because Obama is here!
cause Obama is here
The world is ready for change because Obama is here!

This is a pretty hateful song, and I don't know what F&^% Ludacris was thinking writing somehting like this. Time to throw this IDIOT under the buss.

[Arugula Latte]

1. Why are you spreading this around? Obama had nothing to do with this.

:eyes:

[malik flavors]

12. I didn't say he did. That doesn't mean we can't discuss it.

Or would you like this to be our little oasis, where we keep our blinders on and don't pay attention to anything but butterflies and dandy lions.

[NanceGreggs]

23. "I didn't say he did."

Yeah, it's apparent from your thread title that you're not trying to connect this to Obama in any way.

:eyes:

[malik flavors]

49. i'm bringing to attention that this could be problematic.

[yardwork]

93. Seems like you're helping problematic along.

Most of the song appears to be about McCain - got a problem with that? There's just the one section that refers to Hillary - one of the words used is "irrelevant." Yeah, that's really terrible. Awful. Some rapper called Hillary irrelevant. Call out the Marines.

Yeah, I noticed the other word. Hillary got called that and worse on a daily basis here. Gonna throw everyone under the bus?

[malik flavors]

104. If I were Obama and I knew you, yes. You would be thrown under the bus.

[Hugabear]

103. Yeah, that whole "Obama's Sista Souljah" thing wasn't an smear against Obama

:sarcasm:

I guess the fact that Obama has come out and repudiated Ludicris over this song means nothing to you, as long as you can get your little dig in.

[Hestia]

2. I'm not seeing any hate in the lyrics and I detest rap.

[highplainsdem]

11. You don't see any hate in his calling Hillary a bitch?

Obama should make at least a short statement condemning this -- and I hope the media asks him about it if he doesn't issue a statement first.

He has said before that he doesn't like the message in a lot of rap lyrics, and this is a particularly offensive swipe at a Democrat whose support he needs.

[Diamonique]

53. Obama shouldn't address this at all. NOT AT ALL.

He is not in any way responsible for everything that is ever said or done by every Black public figure.

This has absolutely nothing to do with Obama, and neither he nor his campaign should address it.

[highplainsdem]

90. Well, he did exactly what I'd hoped he'd do, what he needed to do, and kudos to him.

:thumbsup:

[Hestia]

80. Nope, still not seeing hate, being a bitch myself and I can pretty much out bitch the best of them

thing about it is, life teaches you how to be a bitch. It's a Title that women should wear with pride, not hide from it or get their knickers in a wad. It's meant to be dirisive, but it's really not, if you read women's history.

[Cha]

82. Ha Ha..you're funny and not

a hypocrite either.

[MyNameGoesHere]

79. No hate? Ok your mother is a b!%^^& no hate there. Just nice rapping. n/t

[Marrah_G]

3. self-delete

[dionysus]

31. new tactic i see...

:rofl:

[SeaLyons]

4. Yes, throw Ludacris under the bus....

what an idiot...especially the part about giving him a pardon.

[ecstatic]

5. I don't think it's necessary for him to be thrown under the bus

Ludacris is his own person, and due to free speech laws, he is entitled to say whatever he wants to. Just like Geraldine Ferraro did.

[malik flavors]

9. Ludacris can do whatever her wants, but Obama doesn't have to agree with it.

I didn't say throw him in jail, I said throw him under the bus.

And I expect Obama to do it, becasue he can't be linked to something like this.

[HiFructosePronSyrup]

18. What makes you think Obama agrees with it?

Because they're both black?

[ecstatic]

21. lol. I think because Obama was a one time fan of Ludacris

someone might assume that Obama knows every song--but keep in mind, Obama may have enjoyed a very old album and doesn't keep up with or even like Ludacris' more recent songs. I have plenty of favorites who I haven't bothered to keep up with in recent years.

[malik flavors]

24. I didn't say he did. Where did you get that from?

[HiFructosePronSyrup]

32. When you said that Obama needs to throw him under the bus.

Duh.

[malik flavors]

47. that doesn't mean he agrees with him. it means he should distance himself from him.

[HiFructosePronSyrup]

59. Why would he need to distance himself if he already doesn't agree with him?

:crazy:

[malik flavors]

73. Because he's held fundraisers with him and called him one of his favorite artists?

[HiFructosePronSyrup]

75. And?

[Hoof Hearted]

85. It's a damn good thng Obama is smarter than you are.

http://www.politico.com/blogs/bensmith/0708/Obama_camp_condemns_song_Ludacris_should_be_ashamed.html?showall

[Number23]

95. It doesn't have a thing to do with being smart

Obama knows that he will be held accountable for every brown person in America who says something the slightest bit unsavory right now. All they have to do is MENTION his name in even the unsubstantial way and the idiots and clueless fools on a mission will automatically make the association.

This says less about Obama than it does about a certain type of White American voter.

See here for all the proof you'll need: http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/2053884/posts

[AlCzervik]

70. Are they having a big meeting later or something hence the need for distancing?

[scheming daemons]

39. Um... the SUBJECT of your OP?

[AlCzervik]

42. from your op unless you "Buss" means something else. "Time to throw this IDIOT under the buss."

[yardwork]

94. Your thread title. Was that a clever ploy to confuse us?

[ecstatic]

19. Obama probably hasn't heard the song... Hell, I have way more

time on my hands then Obama and I've never heard the song before. I have some old Ludacris songs but I haven't kept track of all his latest work and I imagine that's also the case with Obama too.

It's not up to Obama to keep track of every single word uttered by each of his supporters.

I see your point but I don't agree.

[ellacott]

30. I wish people would stop asking for him to apologize for everything

Damn, you all are making him such a wimp. To hell with Luda(and I'm a fan). I don't expect Obama to apologize and I hope he makes that clear.

I like Luda but I don't agree with all his songs.

Next you going to have Obama apologize for Oprah because she made Beloved.

[AlCzervik]

33. yes! What a terrible movie.

[ellacott]

38. I don't know what Obama is thinking by not apologizing for that movie

He is damaging his support among escaped slaves who see ghosts.

[AlCzervik]

41. i haven't pulled all the weeds on my side yard, any chance Obama could apologize to my neighbors?

i also have a few library books i'm returning today that are late, i could totally use his help there today too.

[ellacott]

46. I know

I have a slow draining sink in my kitchen. I'm waiting for his apology.

[AlCzervik]

48. well while we're waiting i think we should shake our money makers.

Like we were shakin it for some paper.


http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=l_UQYXV1mc0


:7

[ellacott]

52. Thanks for the laugh

:rofl:

[Beacool]

37. Well, someone SHOULD apologize for making that movie!!!

:7

[ellacott]

40. I know but it shouldn't be blamed on Obama

That's my point.

[TexasObserver]

36. Don't you know that Obama is personally responsible for the actions of every black American?

[Hoof Hearted]

84. I didn't see anybody asking him to apologize for it - just to condemn it - and he did.

It's fortunate that Obama is MUCH smarter than some of his supporters here.

http://www.politico.com/blogs/bensmith/0708/Obama_camp_condemns_song_Ludacris_should_be_ashamed.html?showall

[TexasObserver]

88. OMG!

YOU haven't been tombstoned YET?!

In case you didn't get the memo, Obama hater, this is a DEMOCRATIC site.

[writes3000]

6. It amazes me how many celebrities do NOT understand politics.

Clearly Ludacris is trying to tell people to go vote.

But he couldn't have put out a worse message in the way that he's said it.

Dumb, dumb, dumb.

[ecstatic]

8. The insertion of Obama/Clinton in many pop rap songs does

make me cringe a bit, but if it gets at least 10 young people thinking about politics, then I'm all for it.

[StevieM]

7. Hillary is hardly irrelevant on the Hill and that talk is just wishful thinking by haters.

Hillary's standing is tremendous and she is a well-respected senator. And if a pro-Hillary rapper had sung this the words would have been hung around her neck. But then again, the rules only apply if you are Hillary.

Steve

[writes3000]

14. Steve, do you look around before you post?

Did you notice that some Obama folks aren't happy about this - exactly because of the Hillary insult?

I'm amazed at how many people only see what they have conditioned themselves to see here.

[malik flavors]

17. Umm, this just happened. I'm sure it will be hung around Obama's neck very shortly.

Stop acting like the world is only against her, and everybody else has it so easy. Jeez.

[Triana]

10. What the HELL is wrong with these people? Are they absolutely STUPID?

I realize this has nothing to do with Obama but WHY even release something like this crap? HOW MUCH DID THE GOP/RNC PAY him to do it I wonder?

[malik flavors]

22. Seriously. And talking about painting the white house black, and all of that.

White people are already scared enough of a black president. Now Ludacris is reminding everybody of that.

[JackORoses]

28. You are seriously a Grade A Moron if you think Obama is in any way related to this.

Find something relevant to throw a fit over.

[malik flavors]

58. And you're a grade A moron if you don't think people will attach it to him anyway.

[JackORoses]

62. so now Obama is responsible for the actions of every Black Man on the Planet? Give me a break!

[malik flavors]

68. I don't think he's responsible for anything, and I never said he was.

[HiFructosePronSyrup]

63. Well we know grade A morons will try.

You've provided a beautiful example.

:rofl:

[malik flavors]

71. I'm living in the real world, where these thing matter. Put down Rainbow Bright, and come on in.

[HiFructosePronSyrup]

72. It's rather clear you've fucked up. Epically.

Your perceptions may vary.

[malik flavors]

74. HAha, I fucked up? You say that as if there will be consequences for my actions

other than the possible closing of a thread. LOL

I didn't know a hit had been put out on me.

[HiFructosePronSyrup]

76. Well...

you've certainly made a fool out of yourself.

Good luck with credibility here on out.

[malik flavors]

78. Well...

In my eyes, you've made a fool of yourself, and you're blind to the political realities of this presidential election.

So I guess it goes both way, chap.

[HiFructosePronSyrup]

81. Your eyes are irrelevent.

Like I said, you've got no credibility.

[HiFructosePronSyrup]

13. Go Luda!

[maxsolomon]

15. Just drop it. Obama isn't Luda.

Luda is clever & funny, but he's a jester & a troglodyte - he'll go anywhere for a rhyme or a boast. He has no off switch, no internal regulator. He probably calls his moms a b*tch, and means it affectionately. He'd have no clue why you'd object to that word - he doesn't appear capable of introspection.

And Obama gets to listen to whatever the fuck he wants in private - just like you & me. De Gustibus Non Disputadem.

And on edit: this post is classic Concern Troll.

[malik flavors]

20. Haha, i'm no concern troll. I just think it's a entertaining story. You can relax now.

[Overseas]

51. The alarmist thread title does not support your contention.

Oh gosh, not trying to stir things up, just find it an entertaining thing to announce another Sista Souljah moment?

[CakeGrrl]

60. So wait...are you "concerned" or merely "amused"?

Or more to the real point, are you amused by the trouble this might cause?

[malik flavors]

77. I'm amused by the concern it may cause.

[ecstatic]

25. I doubt he calls his mom that. When he says b*tch...

he's just trying to be funny, and most of the time, it is! And it's not aimed at one particular gender. (I.E. "Move b****, get out the way" etc.)

By the way, I'm not really a Ludacris fan... his songs are really corny to me.

[ErinBerin84]

16. lol. "helpful", Ludacris...

I hope if Obama is asked about this, he responds properly. Though I'm not really sure if this song will get on the Obama campaign political radar unless he is asked about it, even if he is a fan. This is one of the bullshit MSM stories that the press likes to go after though, so I wouldn't be surprised if the campaign becomes aware of it. God, I hate unhelpful "supporters".

[AlCzervik]

26. he says "Bitch" and you're comparing that with Sister Souljah's words?

there is a big gap between those 2 things.

[JackORoses]

27. awww, somebody called poor wittle Hilly a name?

I swear, Hillary has more testicular fortitude than alot of you.

[Occam Bandage]

29. OH NO SOMEONE CALLED HILLARY A NAME

THIS IS JUST LIKE WHEN BILL CLINTON DENOUNCED A RAPPER FOR CALLING FOR MORE BLACK-ON-WHITE VIOLENCE

[TexasObserver]

34. Big deal.

Ludacris is a hip hop artist. This is even more absurd than the imbroglio over Rev. Wright.

Obama is not responsible for Ludacris, and he's not under any obligation to do anything about this.

Ludacris knows how to sell his work, and you're helping him.

[Beacool]

35. Yeah, it's all over the RW blogs and radio.

I tuned to WABC to see if they mentioned anything and Rush just played it and even read the lyrics (even though they did bleep the b..ch word). I'm sure that FOX will play it endlessly on its various shows.

Ludacris may support Obama, but his new rap is not helpful. It's precisely the type of thing that makes a "typical white person" cringe.

BTW, Rush is also quoting from several newspaper articles that say that Obama has a problem with women voters. Having some rapper calling Hillary a b..ch just reinforces the issue.

[ellacott]

43. If someone calling her a name reinforces Obama's problem with women is pitiful

It is really sad that some of these women are using this as an excuse. I don't buy it. They don't like Obama and are using this as an excuse.

They are getting tiring. Bunch of whiners.

[ecstatic]

45. Rush "Operation Chaos" Limbo is concerned about Hillary

being called names?

We all know how much the RW loves Hillary :eyes:

[Beacool]

64. I'm sure he couldn't care less.

His concern is to cause strife within the Democratic ranks. I was curious to see if the RW had picked on it already, and true to form, they had.

[malik flavors]

61. LOL, Beacool is the concern troll. If you want to find one, that's where it's at. Not me.

[Beacool]

67. Hey, YOU started the thread!!

I wasn't even aware of that rap until you posted it.

:eyes:

[Number23]

96. What are you talking about??

BTW, Rush is also quoting from several newspaper articles that say that Obama has a problem with women voters. Having some rapper calling Hillary a b..ch just reinforces the issue.

What does Ludacris calling Hillary a bitch have to do with Obama??? Ludacris may have issues with women, but Obama does not. The idea that you would make that connection is AMAZING.

[wndycty]

44. Well he just ruined his opportunity to perform "Move B#tch" at the convention and/or inauguration

Oy vey!

[ellacott]

50. Now I'm going to have that song in my head all day

Get out the way..............

[wndycty]

54. I don't think he will be performing "Area Codes" either

:kick:

[ecstatic]

55. lol

[AlCzervik]

57. huh! I just posted that one.

[AlCzervik]

56. ok, this one will rid you of that one--

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GD8AFbD2mmE

my area code is in that, listen for yours.

:D

[TexasObserver]

65. your contrived concern is what's really ludicrous

[paulk]

83. it will be of concern if the MSM gets ahold of it

and tries to tie Obama to this rapper.

Then Obama will likely be forced to throw him under the bus a la sister souljah.

--------------


Just calling everyone a concern troll and thinking that is some kind of reply doesn't really cut it. It shows a real paucity of thought on your part. This song is exactly the sort of thing the right wing will use and the MSM will seize on - it is a legitimate topic for discussion. And this is a discussion board despite your desire to shut people up.

[mystieus]

66. How stupid can you be?! Ludacris had to know this would negatively affect Obama.

[margotb822]

69. Maybe this will help GOTV

If this makes the air on hip-hop stations, I think it could have an impact on voters who listen to rap. Regardless of what Luda says about Clinton, the more important message is: "so get off your ass, black people, it's time to get out and vote! paint the White House black and I'm sure that's got 'em terrified."

[truthisfreedom]

86. Oh stop.

This is just nonsense. Song lyrics don't impact campaigns. They may impact young voters, but not the images of campaigns or candidates.

[Hoof Hearted]

87. Yeah. That's why NOBODY remembers Bill and the S.S. moment.

[treestar]

89. Except for the part about Hillary, I kind of like it

:hide:

[Thrill]

91. We're suppose to care what some dumbass rapper says?

[Dbdmjs1022]

92. 1. It's not a big deal. 2. I like the track, as well as the entire album.

[nc4bo]

97. Well some rap is hateful. Where have you been?

And before rap lovers get their panties in a wad, I said some rap.

I'd like to ask the outraged one thing though:

All this handwringing and wailing over who?? And who? should be ashamed?


Where was the outrage when some rap artists first began calling women b****es, hoes to be pimped out, objects of sexual gratification and where was it when the music glorified sexual, verbal and physical abuse against women.

Where was the shame when these rap artists rapped about killing one another, drive-bys, gangs, drugs and crime?

Hello?? Rap artists have been rapping for years and years with barely a peep from any of us. Now all of a sudden it's turned into a "political thing" simply because he used the names Hillary, McCain, Bush and Jackson, suddenly there is a world of outrage.

It's a rare one that cares anything other than making a few million selling to a few million to a few more who dream of selling a few million too.

If you find yourself having so much to say now, you should think about why you never said anything negative about it then and just forget you ever heard this mess right now before it becomes a gop mushroom cloud.

Rap "artists" are not Obama's surrogates nor do they have any function in his campaign.

Pshaw........the more issue anyone makes of it, the bigger and hotter this thing will get. Just like any other rap track, this disgusting one gets it's moment of fame, then it's on to the next hot and disgusting track.

It's rap folks, it is what it is and since I'm not a fan of it, it's all crap to me and should be for everyone else who doesn't listen to it.

[burythehatchet]

98. If you would lead him under the bus, that would be acceptable

:mad:

[quizzicaldestiny]

99. We should move on to another subject

What Ludicrious did was uncalled for, but there are issues such as the economy and Iraq that need our attention.

[Catherine Vincent]

100. Interesting that he calls Hillary a name but doesn't call Jackson a name. nt

[adoraz]

101. WOW. I can't believe people are saying Obama....

should condemn this. Holy shit.

Oh, I forgot, Ludacris was Obama's.... wait.... how are they connected? He LISTENS to some of his songs?

Just let this die.

[TexasObserver]

102. When Tina Fey and Amy Poehler do, it's fine, though, right?

That was Hillary's responsibility, and she failed to publicly denounce and reject them and their comments.
