I Know Because of KRS One
Posted by: Matt Lewis at 3:46 PM
I just learned that rapper KRS One and Public Enemy member Professor Griff aren't big fans of Barack Obama.   

In fact, Professor Griff had this to say,

"Obama has been given a pass by the bluebloods. He has been given the okay by certain secret societies for them to let him in. I truly believe imperialism and fascism needs a facelift and the facelift is going to have to be black."      

... To be sure, as you'll see, these guys are not conservatives, but radicals and conspiracy theorists.  Professor Griff, for example, is known for his anti-Semitic comments in the late 80s.  Still, their general cynicism of politicians -- including Obama -- strikes me as more realistic than the quixotic fawning of many "serous" members of the media.



Despite the fact that this story is now three months old, I just learned of it.  And I can't find that any major publications have even mentioned this story, which has been largely relegated to hip-hop websites and magazines ...

We know that P-Diddy and Will.i.am love President Obama, yet  the dissent of these two influential old-school artists has been largely ignored.  ... At least, I haven't heard of it until now.

If you were aware of this, please chime in in the comments below.

Obamanomics

I remember an interview with Joe Pantoliano about the Sopranos. He said the most violent episode of that show in his opinion was not the murders or beatings, but when Tony and the boys dismantled the Ramsey Outdoor store when the owner got behind on gambling debts. The owner of the store was a former friend of Tony. When the owner asked why Tony did that to him, Tony got defensive about the victim/owner being a degenerate gambler (which he was) and then in a moment of clarity Tony admitted--"It is what I do."


And you thought the Sopranos would only be back in reruns.

"Your so wrong conservatives don't need celebs to make us secure in our oipinions or beliefs."

Yes, you do. Hence the success of O'Reilly, Limbaugh, Hannity, and Beck. Making conservatives secure in your opinions and beliefs is the entire reason that Fox News exists.

You just choose celebrities like yourselves; old, white, overweight, and none too bright.

KRS1 & Pro Griff
I don't care what celebs think or care one way or another, and if these 2 are celebs I wouldn't know them if I stepped on them.

And So...
The hip-hoppification of the GOP that Steele called for starts. And it's just as pathetic as I figured it'd be.

Look, Lewis, I know you guys are desperate to make it look like the GOP isn't simply old white people, but can you even name a PE song without going to Wikipedia? Do you even know who you're blogging about?

As someone else said, wake me when Chuck D has something to say.

Is it April Fools Day?
Town Hall is now complaining that the political pronouncements of KRS One do not get enough media attention.

KRS One...
I knew about that months ago. I watched the video "The Obama Deception" and KRS One speaks extensively in it about the bluebloods and the New World Order. You should watch it too, it's almost 2 hours long (on YouTube) or I think you can buy a DVD copy as well.
