hilarious.
we have to take the song in context. offensive lyrics/ misogynist lyrics are so commonplace in hard core rap.
it’s along the same lines as the uproar caused when someone made a comment how Hillary was “pimping out” Chelsea when she met with a super delegate.
but when you take that world/hiphop lingo and try to frame it within a political arena, it comes off as clumsy and often with unintended results.
If Ludicris wanted to be taken serious by Obama, surely he would have realized that the profanity and such wouldn’t be tolerated by him.
Maybe ludacris needs to get a thesarus?
