The campaign released the following statement regarding Luda's Obama track:
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.
Yes Luda went a lil bit too far on the lyrics calling Hilary a bitch and irrelevant, but to call him a radical for those lyrics and try to associate Obama to them is just another new low for Sean Hannity and "Fixed News". Just because I'm friend with somebody doesn't mean I think or act like him or her, I'm not responsible for their actions or words. Chris "Ludacris" Bridges is a great talent and this shouldn't be a symbol of who he is or what he stands for. One more thing Sean, when the campaign releases a statement that means Obama approved it so they are speaking for Obama (Unlike the McCain campaign that contradicts their own candidate statement), he doesn't need to give you a statement for such a petty controversy.
Stop using Hip Hop to scare America.
Get it right next time!
