"This is really something our grandparents wanted to see" ..yeah rappers visiting the White House lmfaooo

This dude a clown

I really hope you don't think he meant it that way

 

[Bobby Lashleys eyebrows]

how u feel about this

Dope freestyle but I'm not apart of the divide and conquer tactic amongst the black community so I'll continue to ignore the Obama/anything that's not pro-black enough group and continue to acknowledge only the positivity my brother.

Spoken like a typical white person that has zero understanding of what black people fought for and wanted to see in the future.

The 'White House' was built by black slaves. After it was finished they had the nerve to call it The White House.

Our ancestors wanted to see black people one day be able to have the same accessibility and inclusion as white people especially at the higher levels where we were not wanted. They hoped for a black President, but most likely figured it would never happen. So to see black people visit a black President at the white house to discuss real issues and have openness with the President, instead of just having a tour of the white house is something are grandparents and ancestors would have liked to see. It has nothing to do with being a rapper or having a certain occupation.

Ludacris sat in one of the front rows during Obama's criminal justice reform press conference in the press room of the white house. Luda, Nicki Minaj, Kendrick, Chance the Rapper, Alicia Keys, Wale, J. Cole, Pusta T, Rick Ross and Common (Obama himself invited them) all went to the white house to talk criminal justice reform and discuss Obama's My Brother Keeper program. A program designed to help young boys of color get off the streets and get an education. A program that Obama personally spoke to Tyrese about and Tyrese agreed to join the cause and help out, along with several black NBA players. And this isn't even counting Beyonce and Jay-Z visiting the white house numerous times since Jay, Beyonce, Michelle and Barack are friends. Friends. Wale was the first rapper to open for a state of the union address.

You really think they could have done this with President Bush? Or any President? They may have been given a tour, but they're not going to sit in the OVAL OFFICE or another office in the white house to talk serious issues like those rappers did with Obama. So yes, our grandparents would be proud. Black people, walking into a white house built by black slaves, to discuss real issues with a black President.

 

[Kal-El]

Wackest president ever.

 

[Shadow King]

Fucc Obama...dude was simply a figurehead, a puppet....seems like a good dude but not worth caping for

Fucc Kendrick too...i enjoy a solid amount of his music but why do ppl keep runnin to him like he's authority on anything esp. politics

What other rapper with mainstream impact and reach do we have that is willing to go down the (socio)political path? None. You know what most of the game sounds like.

 

[Trot LaRoc]

Why are we asking rappers about serious shyt anyway?

WHAT DOES JA THINK.....WHERE IS JA
