…what irony…he’s thrilled for obama’s nomination while at the same time wearing a t-shirt that displays slave owning forefathers…i’m not mad at him, (we all carry these former slave owner’s pictures in our wallets daily), just making an observation of the grave contradiction thereof…

From chains and ship hulls, to whippings and lynchings, to being denied the vote, to being the presidential candidate and most likely the next president. We have come soo far!

But Jay-z? He has just had a look at his bank balance! That’s why he’s so happy!

@55-58 Please get off this post with your ignorance b/4 it spreads!! If you have any sense you would know a presidential candidate can’t accept public support from a rapper. It conflicts with the interests of white America who represents the majority vote. After the election Jay can publicly support Obama all he wants. But right now it’s best to stay away. WISDOM

THANK YOU @ Meka etc….

These haters (# 35, # 55, # 70) need to dismiss themselves already

@ 78 but the things is Jay Z has publicy supported Barack Obama and Obama has accepted he used Jay Z and Russel Simmons to call in on voters in Ohio to vote link to Jay Z message http://boomp3.com/listen/f4b8qhd/jay-z-obama-drop

and Jay Z has openly supported throughout is heart of city tour link to video of him endorsing Obama http://www.youtube.com/wa...SREwKNPs&feature=user

And Jay Z has attended fund raisers contributed to his campaign so I think he is genunely happy Obama has got the nomination but that is just half the battle we need to vote in November I mean we need to break records and go and vote

I think we was all looking like that as we walked down the streets. Randomly saying BARACK OBAMA 08 as we pass by fam.

#73 I’m going to say this and leave it alone…in the Blender interview he was asked if he had MET Obama and he said he had…he said they talked a couple weeks before…when asked what about…he said only about his music…that Obama had a friend with him who knew a lot about his career. So, if you’re even the slightest bit political and you get a chance to talk to Obama…the first black man to, with any shred of seriousness, vy for pres of the United States (to say nothing of your being a black man too)…you talk about your raps? lol It’s no lie…he said it in that interview, this was before his tour…

# 3 put yo glasses back on lololol dat mofo aint and naver will be cute lolol lololol now obama is cute ………… solo broke her foot put that up CL iight lololol

Go Jay he looks sooo happy Obama and marriage agrees with him.

Love you boo

He just got a call from Beyonce and she said “I’m going to go with the freaky Fredericks of Hollywood” tonight! LOL
Funny that he had all the “dead presidents” on his shirt….he must have planned that one……that’s just to coincidental….
Whatever that brother’s happy - and I ain’t mad at that.

Go Jigga and Barack!

LET THEM HATE MEKA, SOME KNOW THE TRUTH. WHENTHER HE WAS ON BOARD IN THE BEGINNING OR NOT HE IS ON HIS SIDE NOW! I WAS AT HIS FIRST HEART OF THE CITY TOUR STOP(MIAMI) AND HE REPPED FOR OBAMA REALLY HARD!

INSTEAD OF TRYING TO PUT JAY-Z(SHAWN CARTER) DOWN, BE A REGISTERED VOTER AND MAKE YOUR OWN VOICE BE HEARD. HOW MANY OF YOUR HARD EARN DOLLARS HAVE WENT TOWARDS HIS CAMPAIGN?

Big Ups To Google!

“WHENTHER HE WAS ON BOARD IN THE BEGINNING OR NOT HE IS ON HIS SIDE NOW”

Well that’s another thing and if you’d like to go there, it’s perfectly ok…I was just expounding on another’s comment, but i’ve been going back and forth too much here lately…my hormones must be getting the better of me! ahhhh well, happy for ya…

Hey Angel how are you?

Jay has been behind Obama all the way well said Meka.

@3
I have ALWAYS Jay was cute so no your not the only one.

“the whites the ones who can’t stand to see a man of color in the white house.” you just pretty much said that all white people are racist! based on your comments i guess all black people are moron!

#59 that statue is called Mount Rushmore wow some people are sooo stupid
————————————————————————————————————-
GEORGE WASHINGTON, THOMAS JEFFERSON, THEODORE ROOSEVELT, AND ABRAHAM LINCOLN ARE ON MT. RUSHMORE! TAKE YOUR FOOT OUT OF YOUR MOUTH. I AM SURE YOU CAN SEE THERE IS MORE THAN FOUR FACES ON HIS SHIRT. CHECK YOUR FACTS BEFORE YOU CALL ANYONE STUPID, IT LOOKS LIKE YOU WERE LOOKING IN THE MIRROR WHEN YOU MADE THAT STATEMENT.

# 45

I agree, and did you see him pat her bum on stage? They are true classy people in every sense of the word.

@45

I did see The Obamas on stage last night that was too cute.

I also love their pic that was featured in the Ebony 10 hottest couples this year.

i luv jay

I hear you #69. BUT, CONGRATS OBAMA (AND Michelle too!!!) hehe..
My smile looks just like Jay’s.. BIGG AS EVERRR!!

#55-58

Jay Z in the beginning of the race said that he had talks with Obama and he was brilliant but has a black man still was weary about America and voting to make a change hell rappers Mos Def, Talib Kweli, and Nas also shared that opinion but Jay Z continue to show his support to Obama by attending is earlier fund raisers

But as the race went on Jay Z became more vocal in his support for Obama not only did he make calls to Ohio voters (a pre recorded message of course) encouraging them to vote for Obama, but through all of his stops of the Heart of City Tour he endorsed Obama within is set

I really wish u would put your hate and ignorance aside look into facts before typing and repeat typing your fictionalize posts and join Jay Z and the rest of American in celebration of Obama nomination and support him come November
_____________________________________________________________________

AMEN!!… Yall haters be trippin sometimes, instead of celebrating we haveto bring something negative that clearly has no evidence to back up your statement!!

Once again OBAMA 08!!!!!!!!!!

____________________________________________________________

Let me give you a piece of advise, don’t believe what you read hun!! There are magazines that edit a bunch of crap, because they know people like you would believe it.

He’s so cute!

@ RAKE he did say that I know read the interview u are so focusing on this interview as if he said he did not support Obama, only thing he said in ther interview was he met Obama and they talk about his music because Obama’s friend was a big Jay Z fan.

He also stated during another interview that he talk in detailed with Obama about political issues amongst other things and chooses to support Obama because he believes in Obama vision that he has for America, but you are focusing on that one interview from Blender when he simply said that they talk abt his music but not looking at his continuing support for Obama the support I think u should share in and rejoice this historical moment but still push forward to get him the presidency come November.

*humming* Hey Mr. Carter where you been

That is a hot track

@ 47(Reccy)

The Carter Foundation he runs with his mother gives hundreds if thousands of dolars away EVERY YEAR for inner-city kids to be able to go to college, Water for Life campaign in which he gave HIS OWN MONEY to build one of those pumps and had a concert who’s ENTIRE proceeds went to the cause of getting those African villages clean water to drink and bathe in, he’s done work with and donated to Alicia Keys’ Keep a Child Alive organization, and the list goes on. Before you criticize someone, know what you’re talking about because all know what they say when you assume.

@ Meka…
You guys are talking about 2 different interviews, like you said. I know what you’re talking about and I believe it was in Rolling Stone, but I could be wrong. They asked him who he was voting for and he said at that moment he didn’t know. He had spoken to Obama a few times, but he hadn’t made a decision yet. He said it was because where he grew up at, politicians didn’t give a damn about them–not in those exact words, of course LOL–so he never really got too involved in politics but that he needed to do some more research about Obama and the rest of the candidates before making a decision.

One more thing…I agree with number 3 and the others. FUCK WHAT YA HEARD THAT NIGGA JAY IS LOOKING TOO DAMN CUTE LATELY! LMAO! That’s all my 3 cents for the day.

lol

who gives a fuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuck whether he endorsed Obama prior or now, omg u ppl r fuckin mental!!

aww, i always thought he had a nice smile
looks like a big kid here, all happy and ish

Cant wait to see President OBAMA’s Ball at the WHITE HOUSE! YEAHHHHHH… KING J is HANDSOME! but were is QUEEN B? i like to see them together…. LOVES IT!

He’s kinda like will smith to me….they both look better as they age
hope i’m the same way!

I love Jay-Z’s smile.LMAO he has a cute/beautiful type of smile.

Obama 08′!!!!

Jay-Z looks cuter and younger when he smiles..

Hov stays winning. He married to the hottest chick in the game and getting richer every day. Must be nice. Him and B are both smart and be on top of their game. They gon have some smart talented kids.

JAY-Z does look alot more approachable when he smiles… Cute! As for the campaign, we can finally see what happens when the “BLACK VOTE” represents. It was an extremely tight race between them but we really spoke volumes and for the first time in a long time we see our potential. Maybe we needed Hilary and Obama to remind us never to assume that we don’t have voice. PLEASE REGISTER TO VOTE… it makes a difference. Whether you choose to vote for McCain or Obama… thats entirely up to you… JUST VOTE! Don’t talk about it…..be about it!!

He looks good there!

WOW, A WHOLE POST ABOUT HIM BEING HAPPY ABOUT THE NOMINATION….ARE YOU GUYS SERIOUS?! JUST WOW..

[...] SPOTTED: JAY-Z HAPPY ABOUT OBAMA NOMINATION Jay-Z was spotted cheering and just being just plain happy on the streets of NYC Tuesday night. According to the paparazzi, the superstar rapper was elated about Barack Obama getting the Democratic nomination. That’s wassup! (more…) [...]

Jay look soo young when he smiles…a good look 4 him.

SORRY BUT JAY DID NOT SUPPORT BARACK IN THE BEGINNING. HE HAS NEVER BEEN POLITICALLY ACTIVE AND PROBABLY NEVER WILL BE.

HIM NOR BEYONCE HAVE A POLITICAL CONSCIENCE…SO HE ELATION IS NOT VALID.

I COULD UNDERSTAND IF HE ACTUALLY CAME OUT IN SUPPORT OF ANY OF THE CANDIDATES, BUT HE DIDN’T. THE ONLY THING HE WAS WORRIED ABOUT IS HIS OWN CONTRACTS.

HE’S A FAKE AND A PHONY JUST LIKE HIS DUMB ASS WIFE!!!!!!!

Umm, Jay and Beyonce both attend political fundraiser for Obama in ‘07! You know the one where Barack was beaming about meeting Beyonce. What have you done?

OBAMA DIVES INTO RIVAL’S WATER$
By MAGGIE HABERMAN
March 6, 2007 — Sen. Barack Obama raided rival Sen. Hillary Rodham Clinton’s home turf last night - ringing up cash at a fund-raiser at record exec Antonio “L.A.” Reid’s Manhattan home, where he rubbed elbows with Brooklyn-born hip-hop mogul Jay-Z and his gal-pal Beyoncé, sources said.

Obama was feted by a group including the son of philanthropist George Soros, and former John Kerry fund-raiser Jamie Whitehead.

He also went to an earlier meet-and-greet hosted by hosted by Warner Music honcho Edgar Bronfman Jr. that designer Tommy Hilfiger attended, the sources said.

The fund-raiser was described as an event featuring mostly Wall Street execs and black professionals who make up Obama’s most natural base of support.

Sources said people there were aware that Obama had just returned from Selma, Ala., where he and Clinton commemorated the civil-rights struggle.

He alluded to the trip, although he never mentioned Clinton, the Democratic front-runner for 2008.

Obama’s camp officials declined to comment or say whether they think he can be competitive with Clinton in terms of New York dollars.

Only 1 thing I can say! JayZ is straight Swaggggggggggggg!
Sun concluded that! Yeahhhhh Sunski!!!!!!!!

Jeeze!!!!!

Thank Trez for the article! Black folks are something else.

jay looks so happy & so cute!
you know how they say pregnant women “glow”?

@ 102… Money given to foundations that he writes off at the end of the year…so what? NEXT!!!

Been around political and social issue for 35 years, and one thing I know about “us”: “We” get excited about shit, but don’f follow through. Let’s try to change that and show-up at the damned polls and vote. I live in L.A. and we has the L.A. County Supervisors election the other day. In the ‘hood, the turnout was about 11%, and we bitch, complain and moan. Damnded near everybody on the ballot for that job is black. Wake Up Folks!!!!!!!!!!

JAY-Z A DUMBASS, HE WILL CHEER FOR ANYONE. HE DOES NOT EVEN KNOW WHAT IS GOING ON IN POLITICS. DUMBASS STOP RAPPING ABOUT YACHTS, EXPANSIVE CARS AND CLOTHES, START RAPPING ABOUT THINGS THAT ARE GOING ON THE WORLD. THAT IS HOW A MUSICAN GROW MUSICALLY AND LYRICALLY, ASK NAS FOR SOME ADVICE.

@129- Money given to foundations that he writes off at the end of the year…so what? NEXT!!!

Aint that what all the rich folks do. Write it off at the end of the year? That’s why they are in the tax bracket they are in and were in the tax bracket were in.. Reccy, whats your problem? Are you really Dame Dash?? Fake or not, the man cam from the gutter and he handles his business. How can you hate on that??

I APPLAUD YOU. WHEN I LISTENED TO IT, BROUGHT TEARS TO MY EYES. JAY-Z MAYBE A LOT OF THINGS BUT, AN IGNORANT PERSON ISN’T ONE OF THEM. PEOPLE ON HERE TALKING OUT OF THE SIDE THEIR NECKS!

@Queen Dee and CHERYLINMIAMI thank you people please listen to

Lucky Me

You Must Love Me

Mama Loves Me
This Can’t Be Life
Soon You’ll Understand

Daddy

I can go on and on Jay is waaaay more than money, cash and hoes. His best songs IMO are the ones you will never hear on the radio.

#131 said it all. I rest my case! NEXT!

THAT’S WHAT WE SUPPOSED TO DO STICK TOGETHER !!!! GO BARACK WITH BAD SELF

Love this picture Jay’s smile is contagious LOL!!!!

I know I’m cheesin” ear to ear. I mean when the primaries were held in Houston it was freezing but nobody complained because everyone felt that they doing for it for ancestors and people who fought for the right to vote. It was moving yet exciting night for voters in Houston…

OBAMA 08

#127 you a hater. Your dumb ass is the one that probably won’t vote. Instead of hating on a powerful black couple like J and B, why dont you go do something productive then instead of hating on a blog. Seems to me like you are the fake one. You obviously dont care about politics too much your damn self so don’t judge 2 people you dont even know.

move over and take a back seat Jay and B. Obama and Michelle have been officially crowned the king and queen.

I’m not about to be happy because Jay’s ass is smiling and happy. Not impressed at all with his ass.

So sick of black folks kissing up to Jay-Z. The only reason y’all kiss his butt is because he is a millionare and is with Beyonce. If he was just some joe off of the street and was dating Kelly Rowland, I wonder if he would get the same kind love and butt kissing. HMMMMM.

@142 - It doesn’t matter that he is a millionare, the fact that he is with a pretty popular pop star like Beyonce, makes people interested in him. If he were with Kelly Rowland or Michelle Williams, nobody would care and he would not get as much press as he does. It is just like when Diddy got with J-Lo. All of a sudden, the media was interested in him.

ECHO #139 FOR ALL THE HATERS ON HERE. You’re speaking about his smile, his looks, King & Queen b.s., etc. You people have no idea how you play yourselves each time you take the time out to post against someone you supposedly hate because you can’t even begin to understand his level of winning.

Jay’s looking Good and Like Money - Dat’s Whatzup.

Yea at the heart of the city tour in miami…jay did a whole skit with Obama on the screen…seeing that j has SOO much pull with his fans…that was a MAJOR plus for my boo OBAMA! it was GREAT….pretty funny too….”F*CK BUSH!” lol I LUV U SHAWN COREY CARTER!!!!!!!!!! AND LETS GET IT OBAMA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

OBAMA FOR PRESIDENT 08!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

#143 - People were interested in Jay before Beyonce. He’s been running rap for 10 years and he gave HER street cred. True, she gave him pop cred (as did his hit Hard Knock Life) but you have white america interested in him now and not only because of her it’s because of his business regime. They’re interested in him because he’s good at what he does and companies want to build how he’s built his empire…..that’s still growing. Now, together, they’re an unstoppable couple that’s interesting to all because they’re both still running their lanes and building an incredible empire that can stand alone, but is a monster together. They’re still the King & Queen of the game, like Obama & Michelle will hopefully be King & Queen of this country.

UGLY AS EVER…..

BTWWWWWWWWWWWW….that whole bob johnson letter tellin obama to put HC as the VP= bullshit….im pretty sure the president of the UNITED STATES OF AMERICA is suppose to PICK who he wants as a VP…not be forced into it. I mean, personally, I wouldnt mind if he did pick mrs hillary…i think itd help out with the white vote…but how u gonna just force Obama to do that??? Bob needs to just stay focused on late nite music videos and weak ass college hill and STAY OUT of Obama’s mailbox with FOOLISHNESS! =)

Jay looks soooo adorable when he smiles!!!!!

AWWWWW! jay looks so cute in this pic. he looks like a lil boy.
