yeah man, that is pretty cool. It did seem a bit like he dropped a couple heavy names without having a real depth of knowledge (Jay, Kanye) but then, he's probably a pretty fricken busy guy. I know how much time you gotta put into learning history etc just to be able to have an intelligent conversation about hip hop, it's like my second job. Or my first, since I'm unemployed right now.
I thought he had a good point about art in general, how it needs to have a light shining forward and not just a mirror reflecting backward. Good call Obama. What's the deal, the vote for the primaries is coming right up, correct?
