Now I must admit, Soulja Boy is NOT by far a Hip Hop artist, AT ALL.  But the Hip Hop culture should respect his hustle and his grind rather than always dogging him out.  He’s a business man that entertains. Most of all he handles his BUSINESS.

I might be late on this, but I just stumbled across this on YouTube. Its the same prison in the Philippines that showcased their rendition of Thriller. This time there Crankin That Soulja Boy and doin the HAmmer dance, shout out to HAmmer (http://MChammer.com & http://www.dancejam.com). Yoooooouuuullllllllllllll!!!!!

With terrible news this morning highlighting the horrors of violence, another story just broke releasing news that the ATF foiled an Obama assassination attempt as well as the attempt to kill and decapitate 102 other black youth in Tennesse. I can obviously say that this is GOOD news, and many thanks to the law enforcement officials who brought these criminals to justice.  Read more...

“The LORD is my shepherd; I shall not want. He maketh me to lie down in green pastures: he leadeth me beside the still waters. He restoreth my soul: he leadeth me in the paths of righteousness for his name’s sake. Yea, though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil: for thou art with me; thy rod and thy staff they comfort me. Thou preparest a table before me in the presence of mine enemies: thou anointest my head with oil; my cup runneth over. Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me all the days of my life: and I will dwell in the house of the LORD for ever.”- Psalm 23

News broke this morning related to the Hudson family tragedy. The white Suburban was found on the west side of Chicago with a young boys body. HORRIBLE NEWS….and it made me just pray, because in times like this that’s all we can do, PRAY. For the families that are affected by this tragedy, for the law enforcement officials that worked night in day to bring justice and closure to the incident, for the supporters who continuously prayed for a small glimmer of light in this dark situation, for the victims of these terrible crimes, and last but not least for the individual(s) who committed the crime.  Read more...

Everybody’s got a CD now a days, any two people can print up a few t-shirts and call themselves a company. Pharmaceutical companies are spending 10s of millions of dollars starting labels named after a body spray. In my opinion its just a glorified marketing campaign, exploiting hip hop. But that’s another blog

So does it seem wrong that what seems like 1 out of every 4 young black males wants to be a rapper. I mean I don’t think being a musical artist should be a job choice for anyone under the age of 18, not even top 10.  Read more...

So there’s a new movie parody of Sarah Palin out on the market, which goes by the name Who’s Nailin Paylin*. Made by Larry Flynt & Hustler*, so now you should get an idea of what the movie is about.  But its quite interesting to say the least, and who knows maybe Joe the plumber will make an appearance!!

Here’s the Clip:

This is the “Friendly” Teaser for the movie…

So as of recent days a good ol’ struggling(making $250,000+ ?), middle class, plumber named Joe was injected into the election headlines. Some might say he’s the most famous plumber in the world as of now, or at least the plumber with the most political influence.

I beg to differ. Although Joe has managed to capture the hearts of a nation recently, there’s only one(maybe two) plumbers I hold dear to my heart. Mario & Luigi. They’re WorldWide icons, and Joe the Plumber wants to come in and steal all the shine!!! Not on my watch…  Read more...

Now that we have the important stuff out the way, Allow Me to Introduce Myself!!!

Welcome to The Hip Hop Democrat: A place where Hip Hop and Politics meet. A blog where fans and artists alike can come together and represent the greater good of the culture. Of course its about the MUSIC as well. This is a place where politics of CHANGE meet the need for change of the current Hip Hop music industry……

“Hip-hop is more powerful than politics and religion. It’s the only thing that brought black people, white people, German people, Asian people, African people (together). I traveled the world – hip-hop changed people’s lives,”- DMC  from RUN DMC  Read more...

“The tragic death of Jam Master Jay should serve as a reminder of the condition of poverty, ignorance and lack of opportunity inherent in our urban communities across the country,”- Russell Simmons

Well, what a day to start a blog, considering that its Blog Action Day and as always better late than never. I’m honored to begin on a positive note and contribute to the awareness of the international POVERTY problem. I feel this is a fitting topic to start with and grow this blog from considering the fact Hip Hop grew its roots out of poverty, and the struggles of those in the inner city and other urban communities.  Read more...
