DMX on Barack Obama

Bonestorm

It's from a few months ago during the primaries but I post it now on the eve of the election because it makes me laugh every time I read it. The interviewer is in bold, DMX in plain text:

Are you following the presidential race?

Not at all.

You’re not? You know there’s a Black guy running, Barack Obama and then there’s Hillary Clinton.

His name is Barack?!

Barack Obama, yeah.

Barack?!

Barack.

What the fuck is a Barack?! Barack Obama. Where he from, Africa?

Yeah, his dad is from Kenya.

Barack Obama?

Yeah.

What the fuck?! That ain’t no fuckin’ name, yo. That ain’t that nigga’s name. You can’t be serious. Barack Obama. Get the fuck outta here.

You’re telling me you haven’t heard about him before.

I ain’t really paying much attention.

I mean, it’s pretty big if a Black…

Wow, Barack! The nigga’s name is Barack. Barack? Nigga named Barack Obama. What the fuck, man?! Is he serious? That ain’t his fuckin’ name. Ima tell this nigga when I see him, “Stop that bullshit. Stop that bullshit” [laughs] “That ain’t your fuckin’ name.” Your momma ain’t name you no damn Barack.

So you’re not following the race. You can’t vote right?

Nope.

Is that why you’re not following it?

No, because it’s just—it doesn’t matter. They’re gonna do what they’re gonna do. It doesn’t really make a difference. These are the last years.

But it would be pretty big if we had a first Black president. That would be huge.

I mean, I guess…. What, they gon’ give a dog a bone? There you go. Ooh, we have a Black president now. They should’ve done that shit a long time ago, we wouldn’t be in the fuckin’ position we in now. With world war coming up right now. They done fucked this shit up then give it to the Black people, “Here you take it. Take my mess.”

Right, exactly.

It’s all a fuckin’ setup. It’s all a setup. All fuckin’ bullshit. All bullshit. I don’t give a fuck about none of that.

Well Barack has a good chance of winning so that might be something.

Good for him, good for him.
 
"What, they gon’ give a dog a bone? There you go. Ooh, we have a Black president now. They should’ve done that shit a long time ago, we wouldn’t be in the fuckin’ position we in now. With world war coming up right now. They done fucked this shit up then give it to the Black people, “Here you take it. Take my mess.”

That's pretty funny.
 
Did they just do this interview for fun? They must have already known he was a felon and ineligible to vote.
 
LOL


Do you worry about people getting the wrong perception of you?

No, I really don’t. People could say what they want. I don’t really care. I don’t give a fuck.



What do you think about Lil Wayne? People think he’s the hottest rapper.

He is nowhere near the hottest nothing right now. You can’t be serious.



Why do you say that? He’s on like every song.

He has to do that.



Is there anybody that you’re excited about? Are there any new rappers that you’re excited about?

No. No.



What was the last time you got excited about a new rapper? When was the last time that you really liked somebody that was coming out?

I don’t recall being excited about a new rapper ever.
 
DMX is a mothafuckin gangster. I'm amazed he spent THIS much time discussing politics.

Epic, I don't know why I feel like talking about this all of the sudden, but I wish all drug dealers who take advantage of other peoples addictions would get a bullet shot in the brain. They deserve it.
