Young Jeezy Recalls Meeting With McCain, Compares Self To Obama
I know what you’re thinking: “Why should I care who Young Jeezy endorses more than any other groaning once and former coke dealer with a poor actual-rhyme-to-verse ratio?” But unlike Rick Ross (I presume), Jeezy actually met one of the presumed presidential nominees during a shared Saturday Night Live appearance. “John McCain is cool, but he looks like a fraud to me… I told him the ‘hood was fucked up, and he was like, ‘How you doing?’ Real talk. They know entertainers, so they shake your hand [and say], ‘I’m your friend.’ But my mama is about to have surgery that I gotta pay for out of my pocket because she can’t get insurance. I don’t really feel McCain.” Aw, but I’m sure McCain feels you, Mr. Snowman!
Don’t think that Young Jeezy is going to vote for Barack Obama merely as an anti-Bush move. The main reason he supports the Democratic candidate is that he identifies with him.
“Barack, he has a lot of things going for him. He’s ahead of his time. Given the right chance, he’ll make some type of change. We’ll feel it. I really feel that.
… It ain’t just because Barack is black; he can make change. Just like Bush equals recession, Barack equals progression. I really feel that, all bullsh– aside. He’s gotta come in and keep it right.
I be in the ‘hood every day, and I motivate the thugs. [Barack] motivates me. To see somebody taking that extra mile … like, ‘OK, I can make some change.’ That’s how I felt when I got in the rap game. I felt I could make change. I did.”
If we continue hearing priceless comparisons like this, I wouldn’t be surprised if Trap Stars For Obama got a little Fox News screen time in the upcoming months.
