Presidential Candidate BARACK OBAMA does not condemn Ludacris Song!
July 31,2008
Representatives for U.S. presidential candidate BARACK OBAMA have lambasted rapper LUDACRIS over his lyrical attack against the senator's political opponents in a recently released mixtape.
Ludacris - real name Christopher Bridges - recorded a track in support of Obama's running for the White House, while slamming the popular politician's adversaries in his song, Politics As Usual.
The tune hits out at Hillary Clinton and John MCCain, two of Obama's political contenders, and Jesse Jackson, who apologised to Obama after he was overheard in a TV interview saying he thought the politician talks down to black people.
In the track, Ludacris raps, "MCCain don't belong in any chair unless he's paralyzed/ Yeah I said it, 'cause Bush is mentally handicapped."
But Obama's representatives refuse to accept that the derogatory comments about Obama's critics can be seen as supportive, and brand the rapper's lyrics "outrageously offensive" - insisting he should be ashamed of himself.
A spokesperson for the politician says, "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."

SOULJA BOY TALKS ABOUT NEW ALBUM
July 30,2008
"I worked with Polow [Da Don] on this album," SB said of his sophomore album. "He did the first single. I remember last year, [when I was] touring, 'Crank That' would be on the radio every five minutes. I was like, 'Man!' This is exactly what this album is gonna do: straight takeover! I did production on this one. I accepted a lot of beats from underground cats on this album. I just shoot my e-mail out on the hip sites. I play off by ear, not off who's doing it. I like music."
Soulja said he wasn't going to reveal the title of the first single yet because of biters, but he did say that the song will not debut on radio. The unveiling of its video will be the first time we hear it. The album is called iSouljaBoy, and it's an ode to today's technology, like iTunes. What did you expect? Soulja Boy Tell'em is new, fresh, current and — God bless him — young.
