bc Obama is here! ("as usual...")

So... i really want this shirt..

BUT-

this is so sad.

honestly, it really kinda makes me sad...

I heard about this song when i was at work & someone played it, asking if anyone had heard about this whole situation.

Apparently, Barack Obama & Ludacris were, at one point, pretty tight, but... now... due to one line in Luda's new song "Politics as Usual"... (which, i can not find anywhere...?!)

Here's the song in a youtube.com "video"

I've posted the lyrics also...

I think that this is so sad, read the rest of the lyrics, this song is literally PRAISE to Obama & yet, all anyone can talk about is the one line "Paint the white house black" & Luda is now seriously in the dog house.

I guess he needs to protect his political career, but geez dude, take praise where you can get it. Luda's trying to rep for you & you got mad.
I dunno, i'm honestly torn, but i think that anyone would be lucky to get a campaign song like THAT! ('cept the knock against my homegirl H.Clinton... but whatev)

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 bitch 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!

i kinda luvs this song... but i don't luvs the controversy...
