Jay-Z Shouts Out Obama On New Track

Last week Jay-Z previewed his new song, "Jockin'Jay-Z (Dope Boy Fresh)," during Kanye West's Glow in The Dark tour stop at Madison Square Garden. The entire song was recently leaked online and it finds Jay-Z shouting out presidential candidate Barack Obama.

Jay-Z raps, "I rock with Obama but I ain't no politician.....And I chill with the thugs and the gangsters too/ I ain't a Blood but I'm warring with the boys in blue/ Crooked officer, crooked officer/ Why you wanna see me in a coffin, sir?"

The chorus features a sample of Run-DMC's Run from the song, "Dumb Girl, which goes "Seen you jockin'J.C./ 'Cause he got a Mercedes/ And you know about his ladies."

The new song will be included on Jay-Z's Blueprint 3, which is tentatively scheduled to hit stores later this year. Kanye West and No I.D. are currently crafting the music for the project.

Three 6 Mafia on Lolli Lolli (Pop That body) sings:

“Like Barack Obama said yeah it’s time for a change”

Unfortunately, Bacharach is a moonbat.

Bacharach came out of retirement specifically to criticize the Bush Administration with the abysmal At This Time back in 2005 - an album which featured a song entitled "Who Are These People?" that consists of a tirade against the President and Vice-President.

It's Barack Bacharach is backing.

Some of Jay-Z's high class lyrics:

You know I thug 'em, f*ck 'em, love 'em, leave 'em Cause I don't f*ckin' need 'em

I'm a pimp in every sense of the word, b*tch

Me give my heart to a woman Not for nothin' never happen' I'll be forever mackin' Heart cold as assassins, I got no passion I got no patience and I hate waitin' Hoe get your a** in and let's ride
