DMX, a hip-hop “artist” about whom I know absolutely nothing, was interviewed recently and demonstrated his knowledge about current events. A piece of the interview is as follows:
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 f*&k is a Barack?! Barack Obama. Where he from, Africa?
Yeah, his dad is from Kenya.
Barack Obama?
Yeah.
What the f%$k?! That ain’t no f*&kin’ name, yo. That ain’t that nigga’s name. You can’t be serious. Barack Obama. Get the f&*ck 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 f*&k, man?! Is he serious? That ain’t his f*&kin’ name. Ima tell this nigga when I see him, “Stop that bulls&&t. Stop that bulls&%t” [laughs] “That ain’t your f&*kin’ name.” Your momma ain’t name you no damn Barack.
You know what’s sad? That DMX is a millionaire, yet probably unable to read.
