Ludacris thought he was doing his friend/Presidential hopeful, Senator Barack Obama a favor, when he released the diss song, "Politics: Obama Is Here". The song call his former Democratic presidential rival Hillary Clinton the b-word and also disparages John McCain, President Bush and the Rev. Jesse Jackson.
Peep This!-to hear "Obama Is Here"
Since the outburst, Obama put out a statement denouncing the rapper. "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."
