Rock The Vote has never had a problem linking up with artists and getting them engaged so acts such as voting would appeal to the younger generation. In continuance with their RockTheVoteNights, they take the successful mobile event to LA.

#pow RT @DjWillieShakes: Damn @theycallmeBK was looking too good at the @RockTheVote event at the @wlosangeles

If I wasn’t already a fan of being civically engaged, Thanks to Roc Nation’s Bridget Kelly, I am definitely one now. She makes it looks so sexy. The most memorable song she performed last night was “Seek & Destroy” where she directs her message to the man in the relationship by saying, “You Better Not Eff This Up.” So basically, it doesn’t matter what you’ve done in the past, right now is all that matters. How fitting–(*UnF**KTheWorld). I took those lyrics and incorporated that into politics and directed it toward the president or presidential hopefuls.

#NewMusic: Nicki Minaj “Roman In Moscow”

This new Nicki Minaj is bananas! As one of the dopest female emcees in the game, Nicki transforms into a man and allegedly gets at another female emcee. That’s ill! But I don’t wanna go out on a limb and say all of this drama in this record is dedicated to Lil Kim. However, the first version which featured Eminem was definitely more than a jab at her but less than the full gambit. With no hooks, no bridges and no help, your favorite threesome is back using her infamous alias, Roman!

[PEEP] Fred Hampton Jr. Not Feeling Jay-Z Reference

Speaking of Murder. This guy Jay Z can’t catch a break and should he be able to? Fred Hampton Jr is going at Jay for the reference to his father on “Murder to Excellence” which is featured on ‘Watch The Throne.’

“I arrived on the day that Fred Hampton died/Uh, real n****z just multiply”

We all know what Jay was saying. In my opinion, he was paying homage but to Fred Hampton Jr, that was a sign of disrespect since his father was assassinated as opposed to dying.

10 Rappers That’ve Taken Shots at President Obama’s Throne

I can remember it like it was yesterday. The moment that Barack Obama was elected president, you would’ve assumed Jay-Z and Young Jeezy had something to do with it, due to the amount of times their hit record, “My President is Black” played around the country. I have no exact number of plays, but it was definitely the hip-hop ode to candidate. However, three years after a black man was made president of this great country, some people are quietly asking if he was the right man for the job, while some are yelling it to the top of their lungs. At the end of the day, everyone isn’t in love with Barack just because he’s a cool public figure. We are all looking between the couches in search of the lil bit change we were promised.

The real question is, how influential will hip-hop be in the 2012 election? Is Barack still the popular candidate in the hip-hop community?
