My President Is Black (Remix) - Jay-Z
well it's been quite a day. Its been quite a week. Damn this 09 shit has been quite a deal too. Then in retrospect, quite a year it's been. Sitting here in a semi euphoric state of mind, in the dark, i think. Today was one of those days u probably will never forget. For me it was rather bittersweet. The video above the same. my favorite rapper on a song that speaks to our generation. blue lambos hey why not? I wanted to go out to D.C and actually absorb some of the historical ambiance, but was 1) under the weather. and 2) was in conjunction with some niggas who ain't have they plans in order.( In sucks not having a car in a small ass non metro accessible county) but any way. Even though i missed out on the 2 million +++screaming black folk from alllll over this great nation, i got some time to reflect on real shit. away from the "Obama" Chants and the eye gouging flag waving of black grandmas who thought this day will never come. Not in attendance but had a camera mans view pretty much the whole time. I see the people who look like they no nothing about Obama's speeches or great accomplishments in community work while in CHicago, they really are just ecstatic at the "concept" of a "black" president.Well i don't figure this just by looking at them. Iv'e talked to these black folks. I was one until i started to think... then there are those who are solemn, absorbed and inspired. They feel the "reality". . Obama is not on every black persons team just because we are all black. Im pretty sure some type of help will be given to those who help themselves. I don't expect any handout because we have a black president. If any thing im starting to realize i gotta grind harder to get mine. Black president sounds good though. So good i think thats what im gonna strive for. If i end up the first black of anything i think that will b that change i was looking for. i never really heard this bobby james smacked. i really fuck wit this! lls. but this song is crack. nas x kanyw once again. gotta love what this nigga kanye on, still producing and innovating...
