F'N Wit HISTORY




Barack "Barry" Obama
(Panahou School "Oahuan" yearbook photo)
In this 1977 file photo provided by the The Oahuan, yearbook of Punahou School, Barack Obama, second row center, is seen with is junior varsity basketball team in this 1977 yearbook class photo in Honolulu. Obama loved basketball and as a forward dubbed "Barry O'Bomber," he favored a left-handed double pump shot. During his senior year, the varsity team captured the state championship. Oh Yeah, He is also our PRESIDENT!!!


I know I'm late with an Obama type tribute (cuz everyone has done one) but better late than never. I wanted to post a few songs that made mention to politics and the presidency (some pro and some anti government rule). Some of the lyrics,,especially in the Jungle Brothers song are pretty interesting. Hope you can get where I'm going with this. Like a lot of us, I thought I'd NEVER see the day.


Impeach The President - The Honey Drippers - "Behind the walls of the White House, there's a lot things we should know about". As you can see this song dealt with social injustice. I know I already posted this song (below). Shut up.

MC Battle 1987 - New Music Seminar (Melle Mel vs. King Sun vs. GrandMaster Caz)
This is a real gem for hip hop heads out there. I thought I'd post it simply becuase of Melle Mel's Verse...."There will never be a black President",,, Check it out.
