Don't ask 50 Cent about politics: rapper switches from Clinton to Obama to apathy

Explains it all to me...unable to think or decide beyond dollar signs.

Hey thanks 50! Way to be an example for all the young brothers and sisters that look up to you. I know you dont consider yourself a role model. And assume no responsibility for the lives that you impact with your music. But you are one example of a greater problem that has taken the whole black community down a path of missplaced pride, priorities, and apathy. I dont blame you. You simply dont have the strength to rise above whats wrong, and fight for whats right. This is what we have a legacy of in the Black Community. Leaders that saw one thing, but were not satisfied to just kick back and let it go down like that. Even if it cost them their lives! Now thats GANGSTA!!!!! Hopefully we"ll wake up, and annoint men and women with that kind of vision and leadership our cultural role models. And we can set our sights towards possesing our Promised Land, While you and the other miss-guided blacks settle for a "Namebrand". Holla if you here me!!!!

Rev. Wrong, 50 Cents. I can't wait to see who's next. OJ maybe or better yet Rodney King? I'm glad I voted 2 times for GW, because who knows what will happen if this cat wins.

I have to admire anyone who speaks for themselves and does not feel the need to follow anyone because someone else "tells them to".... A mind of his own... How refreshing! Peace Man. You rock!

Stew your a jerk!!! and lay off the Bush Ca-Ca burgers

It still amazes me how much more ignorant people, Has to listen to Obama before they learn. We understand that very uneducated or even less educated people support HILLARY. How much more Republicans are you going to throw at her just to keep her going as her unreal supporters. I Suppose that America is getting to a new awakening,Obama is one way out,any other ways are just chasing the wind. HILLARY GET RID OF ALL YOUR REPUBLICAN GHOST SUPPORTERS AND YOU WON'T HAVE ANY REASONS TO BE IN THE RACE. WE DON'T NEED LIARS AND CHEATS ANYMORE!!!

Big surprise.

Who cares who 50 is voting for...

Who cares who 50 votes for...I hope no one is waiting on the rappers to lead them on their decision to vote, come on....

It figures 50cent would vote for obama. gee what a surprise!!! lol. That tells alot. Also, people from all levels of education are voting for Hillary, so stop being so ignorant and demeaning about voters. Just because Hillary got caught lying, don't think obama hasn't lied either. Every time he does something, the liberal media and newspapers don't tell anyong about it. As always, he gets away with it. What a shame the people that are voting for him don't see what is really happening. They don't even know what kind of "change" he's offering because he's never specific about anything. He bashes people & tells you he's above that. he never talks or answers questions from newspeople or many voters. he says he wants to unify America but he never voted with Republican's as a US Senator and as a State Senator. He's more Liberal than Hillary & he's backed by Moveon.org & Kennedy. Us people that have common sense and can see through all the BS, say to all of you uninformed people, "what's wrong with you"? How can vote for a guy that has LITERALLY no experience and only says what you want to hear?

Of course, blacks now unfortunately have been educated to only acknowledge black. We are going backwards when blacks have been given a huge opportunity to forgive the past and grow as a nation, but pastors like Wright have changed the natural course of healing. Stir it up, add to the hatred of whites. What a sorry purpose.

And you thought fiddy was an idiot

BARACK HUSSEIN OBAMA: Won't salute flag...................................check Won't wear flag pen..............................check Crazy wife...............................................check Bigot Preacher.......................................check Anti-American Preacher......................check Jew Hating Preacher............................check Gives Driver Licenses to illegals........check Anti 2nd Amendment..........................check Says: "typical white people"...............check Throws his granny under bus.............check Loves abortions (partial birth too)....check Most Liberal ....

McCain 08........Hey Curtis Jackson, vote for a was hero, not a liar.

Well, I believe in 50 because he defended Bush over Katrina and admitted to voting for Bush twice. He certainly doesnt follow the crowd and said he did his research before voting for Bush. So if he says he isnt voting now because he didnt follow it now, I totally respect that. Perhaps if other people looked at the candidates positions in reality instead of just voting for Obama like all the other brothas I know are doing, they might even cross party lines and vote republican. I am a black independant and I am leaning toward McCain, its not a black or white thing, just an informed thing! Respect to fifty!

Who Cares??? What a joke to even ask! I believe we have alot more problems than to ask, or care, what any 1 person has to say. Does 50, 49, or 32 cents matter to you me or anyone else? Not to me. NJ

Amen Tyrone Powell. Independent is cool, you know the truth and you have to vote with your brain not with the sheep. We want you in the Republican Party though. If you do register as a Republican the intolerant left will send you death threats, call you a sell out, or something hateful which is not very tolerant of the far left is it? Don't worry, as a Republican we will defend your right to bear arms to protect yourself against hate filled bigots.

Tyrone, you obviously need to get a new set of friends and a new talking point. What is "Perhaps if other people looked at the candidates positions in reality instead of just voting for Obama like all the other brothas I know are doing, they might even cross party lines and vote republican" supposed to mean? For some arrogant reason, blacks inde's and republicans feel as if they have awakened from a long sleep with a mission to educate the miseducated blacks about politics and social strife. So what that you are considering voting for McCain! That only means that you are not voting in the way most people of your race are. When whites begin to overwhelmingly vote for well-qualified persons of another race, then you can get a pat on the back for voting Republican.

Thing is -- he's saying it WITHOUT having to say it -- listen people! http://lifeisacookie.wordpress.com/2008/04/01/fiddy-is-fickle-%e2%80%93-just-like-us/

Amazing how the comments of a rapper get so many replies as if he is he sage of politics and arbitrator of what and how someone should make a choice about who to vote for, and, thanks to the GOP man, just another reason to never vote a GOP candidate, they can twist anything into a lie, and, they ignore the afct that McCain is hardly the 'war hero" they claim when he still in 2008 goes around making racial slurs about the Vietnamese and refuses to stop, hardly a hero in my book, and, this alleged hereo needs to get over it. Just Bush with a better looking wife, with no polices other than the same old ones, stay in Iraq and less taxes for the rich. Hardly the "maverick" that so many want to make him out to be, and, when the real questions get asked, since he has had a free pass from the press so far, the REAL McCain will appear, and, he isn't at all impressive, and, the more he steers to the party base, right wingers who don't esposue anything that the old GOP stood for, it will be fun to see him squirm.

WHO GIVES A SHIT. ANYONE WITH A NAME OF FITTY CENT I COULD CARE LESS. OH BIG TIME SUPPORTER!! OH WHAT A GREAT LOSS. LOL LOL

Let's see how the list looks: A $300,000 Lamborghini among the other various $75,000 plus vehicles in the driveway, a multi-multi-multi- million dollar mansion bought from washed out Mike Tyson, multi-million doller NYC apartment, private jets (he does not fly commercial), a very well paid personal security detail, and of course all the ho'sxxxxxxxxxxxx excuse me, young women he and his posse can pass around to each other whenever they get together and blaze up and on and on.......... To sum it up I am with you demogirl. Who in their right mind gives a shit who he supports?? Oh and don't forget he too will benefit from the Bush tax breaks while rappin about the hood. LOL

Anyone in our society who cares about what four dimes and two nickles has to say about voting in the presidential election is both foolish and immature. Since the civil rights era the black community has lost its edge in many ways. We must get back to focus upon community and/or family in order to advance in this white patriarchy dominated society. My spin is for all of us to ask Obama what plan does he have to build our community beyond sound bites and the same question must be posed for Hillary Clinton. Brothers and sisters lets not get suckered again and demand change with our unified and collective voice. Oh and by the way. Four dimes and two nickles and the rest of these sorry rappers who are parasites in our community and foster hate towards black women need to step. We should demand more from ourselves and anyone who we spend our money upon to provide us entertainment. In other words - lets grow up!

Now thats what time it is Hawk. As long as "Flava of Love" is the number one show in our community. They will continue to feed that type of garbage. We should demand better of and for ourselves. But our minds have been so corupted, and the chains have left our hands and feet, and now we have internal chains that trap our thoughts, and chains in our hearts that have us jealous, miss-guided competitive wars, that have us hatin on one another. Stuff that I know makes MLK turn over in his grave, that he gave his life so we can trade in the Promise Land to fight over the latest Namebrand. Yet, even with all of the negatives. We still have some people in our community that gets it. They understand living princaples, and there not part of the problem. And once we have taken the Mic out of the hands of those who dont speak for us. We can began to turn this thing around.

Hey GOPMAN, The Republican Party doesn't give a FUCK about Blacks, nor poor people. So you and your BULLSHIT rhetoric can get on! Tyrone REMEMBER THIS INDEPENDENT Thinking is fine. So if there are brothers on here who would support Barack because he is Black. What seems to be the problem? There are whites that are saying they would not vote for him because he is Black. So they would vote for McCain because he is white. So what's the problem? Where is your complaint with that? You can listen to GOPMAN, or think you’re bringing yourself a new ideology if you want. You need to wake the hell up. The Republicans never have and never will like Blacks as a RACE. Only the sellouts who publicly defame our community and or RACE for them. John McCain has already said the gov't should not do anything about the mortgage crises. The homeowners should bail themselves out. Also he plans to be in IRAQ if takes 100 yrs. Which means we will have? HIGHER GAS PRICES A US DOLLAR WEAKER THEN THAN THE MEXICAN PESO A MAJOR HOMELESS COUNT SEVERE UMEMPLOYMENT AT CATASTROPHIC LEVELS THEN WHAT you think he will help Blacks???? HA HA WAKE UP BABY This is not a joke this is LIFE OR DEATH for many. When someone thinks like McCain and the Republicans destruction lies soon for many. He is as independent as My Foot. Now all of a sudden he apologizes for not voting for a MLK holiday. Kiss my ass. He meant it back then 25 yrs ago and he still means it now! He just is lying to get votes! ACT LIKE YOU KNOW MY BROTHA GOPMAN is some white dude trying to sway you in despair. Don't get caught up in that madness! If you're going to be an independent than seriously think so. John McCain is a REPUBLICAN not a INDEPENDENT!

Chris, chris, chris. If you are the chris that I am thinking about I am surprised that you think this. How dare you say Republicans do not care about blacks. Weren't they nice enough to appoint Condoleeza Rice to be the black apologist for the administration. Weren't they nice enough to import Alan Keyes to run against Barak Obama in the state of Ill. when no white candidate was able to because of the dirt and baggage that they brought with them? Wasn't that also nice of the white press not to dwell how HE had once called Hillary a carpetbagger? Wasn't the republican Bush 1 nice enough to give us Clarence Thomas? After all diversity had to be shown and WHO ELSE was available? Aren't they also thoughtful enough that when moral issues are at hand to dig up the unmarried and celebate for nearly 20 years ARMSTROMG WILLIAMS? (He settled out of court a sexual harrassment lawsuit brought against him by a black male former aide) You have to look at the "reach out to blacks" things that republicans have done as well. Don't just swear at GOPman without attempting to point out "good examples" of their efforts. It is in Fiddy best interest (at least financially) that a republican get in office and he knows it. Have a good day homie.
