White Trash Rap

I hate to lay this stuff on you but this is too ridiculous to not mention. Conservative rapper Hi-Caliber has a protest ‘song’.

‘Conservative rapper’? Why does that sound like it should be right beside ‘Christian Rock’ as a music genre that just doesn’t work?  Anyway, apparently this guy is serious.
.

.
So what’s wrong with this guy and his rap song?  Let’s try this – everything. Lies (1 million at teaparty march in D.C…yeah, right), intolerance (the homophobic message is all too clear), it’s filled with 80′s cliches and it’s just so dumb.  Oh, and way too much squinting.

Wait! News bulletin! This just in! Michael Steele sends out press release in praise of fellow hipster and true patriot, Hi-Caliber!

Yo homie you killed it.
I mean really killed it, like I kill intelligence, killed it!
Mofo. Now that’s some real bad core shit!
Peace bro.

-Mikey S.

(Alright, I made up the last part…but if Steele did send out a press release, I know it would be just like this one.)

    Wow, this dude has a major identity crisis. On one level it’s sad, but mostly hilarious. A conservative white rapper with some attitude from the ‘hood? He’s trying to transpose ghetto life with political discontent (he thinks that he’s oppressed).

    I dunno. That’s f’ed up!

  2. Frances says:

    Did he have the nerve to say, “Please stop spreading all your lies and rumors?” WTF?

  3. Jim Irwin says:

    People like these remind so much of the old woman in Minnesota last year on the McCain campaign trail who actually thought Barack Obama was “an Arab”… remember her and that incident when McCain had to take away the microphone from her?
    Misinformed!

  4. Tommy Pane says:

    I dunno… I though it had a good beat and was easy to dance to.

  5. Anomaly100 says:

    @Tommy: Were you dancing just now in front of the computer? I thought I saw something, I dunno… :-)

  6. Anomaly100 says:

    Wait, did he say, “a shoutout to Freedom Works & 9/12″??? OK, now I know where he heard ALL those lies coming out of his silly mouth. His record sales won’t do so well. How many rappers are Republicans these days anyway, besides him? Me thinks none.

  7. H M Bascom says:

    That . . . was the worst thing . . . I have ever experienced. BTW Kanye should kick his ass. Ignorant homophobic white trash. Crazy big shout out to the conservative warrior princess? LOL

  8. RDS says:

    This white “rapper” is rather uncreative — all he does is regurgitate RNC talking points!

  9. janine says:

    Sad the conservatives have been driven to this, and I agree with @RDS here, uncreative regurgitative rapper. He should take the example of the democratic protesters singing at a repub event,

    Liberals show conservatives how to protest. http://twurl.nl/usvofy

  10. defolts says:

    Creepy. are they serious? so now you know who the people that believe what they hear on Coast to Coast AM listen to.

  11. Tennessean says:

    Yeah. What’s his problem? I can understand why you people are so offended. A rap song without profanity?? Not one “M.F., Bitch, Hoe” MY GOD!!! Who does he think he is?????

    You guys remind me of a Carlin skit on the hypocrisy about “Beards” in what? The early ’60′s? What HUGE, VERY HUGE hypocrits you are.

    “Beard? BEARD?? Stalin had a BEARD! Lenin had a BEARD!! Gabby Hayes had whiskers.”

  12. Frances says:

    Tennessean, “You people?” Seriously? Have you learned nothing from Ross Perot?

    Maybe “we people” are offended because this guy is a homophobic whore for Freedom Works.

  13. Tennessean says:

    Frances, I say “You people” because I certainly do not want to be identified with “you”. Nothing personal.

    Your offense would be better spent on Black Rap artists contaminating the airwaves and the minds of our youths with their particular brands of hatred and abusive and violent behavior and promotion of degradation towards everyone….but SPECIFICALLY toward women!

    This guy has a message you don’t agree with but is not offensive to civilization as a whole. That’s why I reiterate, “YOU PEOPLE” are such cataclysmic hypocrites!

    (Please Google up some of the rap lyrics your kids are listening to then re-visit your “offense” with this guy.)

  14. janine says:

    @Tennessean

    Utilizing a phrase like “you people” is specifically designed to marginalize the individual and individual opinion and does nothing to further topical discussion

  15. Anomaly100 says:

    @tennessean: But this isn’t about “black” rappers. It’s about this no talent lying wannabe. I don’t think there’s much of a demand for rappers with “you people”.

  16. RDS says:

    We have to remember that people like Tennesean can’t see the difference between grassroots and real Americans, compared to astroturf & fake personalities sponsored by FreedomWorks. In this case, the tip-off is that this rapper fool does not have any personally formulated insights – it’s all repetition of the usual talking points.

    It’s pointless trying to convince Tennesean — his gullibility precludes the ability to be analytical.

  17. Tennessean says:

    janine, anomaly and rds, three very good examples of why I wish to differentiate myself from “you people”.

    janine, “you people” would be one of the least examples of marginalization of individuals or their opinions to be found on these pages. Look to your own house.

    Anomaly, sigh…….just not worth the effort. I find it specious that you people would be so concerned over what’s wrong with “this guy and his rap song” considering the horrible garbage out there in the form of other “guys and their rap songs”. Proof you people are hypocritical in your condemnation.

    rds, grow up and get back with me.

  18. Frances says:

    Tennessean, I don’t understand why you equate someone’s not liking what this guy is saying to loving all other rap. Perhaps you should also take a minute to realize that not all rap is violent gangsta trash. Your logic leaps are taking you off into a parallel universe where they might perhaps make sense. But not here.

  19. Anomaly100 says:

    @Tennessean: Why are we so concerned with this guy’s bad rap song? Well, it IS the topic for one. Also, there just aren’t any rappers that are Republicans. I can’t think of one. Nope, not one. As it happens, I know quite a few people in the music business & NONE of them are Republicans either. Sooo, when one tries to fit in this kind of lifestyle, he will be criticized, especially if he’s lying. Case in point: Vanilla Ice. In addition, his lyrics include a truckload of lies while feigning to be a homeboy, which is unlikely. Now, the question is, why is it so important for you to defend this guy? Why does it bother you so much? Do you defend every Republican just because they are a Republican? ;-)

  20. RDS says:

    Tennesean said: “rds, grow up and get back with me.”

    Ok. So what did I say that was childish? Or is it that you don’t have a response that makes sense. I’d wager the latter.

  21. Tennessean says:

    Frances, now that’s not what I said at all. No where did I say you or anyone else must “love” all other rap. What I questioned was the level of “offense” taken simply because this guy has a rap about Conservative themes. And I stated your offense might be better targeted at some of the truly violent, disgusting and offensive rap lyrics out there.

    I just find most of you guys hugely hypocritical on most of these things.

  22. Tennessean says:

    rds, that’s the point. You really didn’t say anything at all. You made no point. Made no statement worthy of rebuttal. You only speculated about things of which you have no knowledge. Why should I bother to respond to that?

  23. Tennessean says:

    anomaly, your entire comment reeks of being poorly informed. No Republicans or Conservatives in the music business? Really??

    This could be a very circular discussion. (If you were qualified in any way.) “…why is it so important for you (me) to defend this guy?”

    Just as valid a question would be why is it so important for you to attack this guy? Aside from that, nothing I said could be construed by any reasonably intelligent individual as defending him. I simply spoke to what I feel is another and continuing example of the hypocrisy of the left.

    (Please see my first sentence.)

  24. RDS says:

    Tennesean, you stupid idiot. I made two points:

    1. The rapper is unoriginal because he simply regurgitates Republican talking points. Real rap is a form of personal expression, not repackaging someone else’s propaganda.

    2. People like you are suckers for supporting corporate sponsored “grassroots” organizations like FreedomWorks.

    So, you can’t respond to that and chose to act as retarded as you clearly are. That’s fine with me.

  25. Anomaly100 says:

    @Tennessean: So here, you admit that Conservative themes are lies, because that’s what’s pissing us off. He’s lying.

    “simply because this guy has a rap about Conservative themes.”

    OK, while you try to Google some well known Republican rappers, I won’t wait up. You might find ONE, but he/she won’t be anyone we’ve heard of most likely.

    You and you alone in this comment thread is hypocritical. You say you have not defended him. You have. You don’t call people stupid. You do. You don’t tell the truth. You never admit you’re wrong and in this case in particular, you are wrong. I won’t have every musician I know or have known call you up personally to tell you how much they do not respect right wingers because you already know this, or you’re a fool. Imagine a punk band or rap band hanging out with Sarah Palin or this idiot rapper. Please. That would be science fiction to them. It’s like the Queen of England having tea with Glenn Beck. It wouldn’t happen. (And she is Conservative). ;-)

  26. Tennessean says:

    rds, I’ve already done a couple of posts addressing the “points” you claim to have made. Figure it out.

  27. Tennessean says:

    Anomaly, there’s no point in discussing anything with you. I sincerely think you are about 12 years old because that’s how your comments read. If I am correct, then I would have to give you credit.

    For a twelve year old, you aren’t doing too bad.

    For the record, I haven’t defended anyone. I’m simply saying if you want to get upset about a rapper or rap lyrics, get upset about these:

    http://www.lyricsfreak.com/b/brotha+lynch+hung/return+of+da+baby+killa_20024859.html

    And also for the record. Conservative musicians:

    Ted Nugent; Sammy Hagar; Wayne Newton; Toby Keith; Charlie Daniels; Loretta Lynn; James Hetfield (Metallica); Trace Adkins; Hank Williams, Jr. for starters.

  28. Anomaly100 says:

    @Tennessean: I believe I said, “Republican RAPPERS”. You must have smoke coming out of your ‘puter trying to search for a Republican rap star! When you are wrong, you have a tantrum which ususally sounds like this:

    “You’re 12 years old! You’re stupid! You’re misinformed!”

    Well, Oh Smart One, where’s the famous Republican rap star? I didn’t check out your link. We aren’t talking about other rappers. I’m not that big on rap anymore. As RDS said, “Real rap is a form of personal expression, not repackaging someone else’s propaganda.”
    And that’s why Vanilla Ice didn’t work. His words were contrived & the lifestyle he spoke of, was not his own. Tennessean, tell exactly why you think Loretta Lynn is a rapper? ;-)

  29. TonyM says:

    Loretta Lynn is not a rapper? Also I wouldn’t be bragging about Nugent being a republican. Nugent is an embarrassment. Here’s a clip of Nugent with Beck at a time when the crazy one was only 50% insane.

    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sIFGEVOVVLs

  30. Tennessean says:

    Anomaly said, “….I know quite a few people in the music business & NONE of them are Republicans either.”

    then said,

    “I won’t have every musician I know or have known call you up personally to tell you how much they do not respect right wingers…”

    I read what you say and trust you understand your own words.

    So far, although I didn’t say it, I haven’t observed you denying any of the three.

    “You’re 12 years old! You’re stupid! You’re misinformed!”

  31. Anomaly100 says:

    @Tennessean: You just won’t admit what is clearly in front of your own eyes! Look up to the comment for Heaven’s sake! Get a grip:

    “OK, while you try to Google some well known Republican rappers, I won’t wait up. You might find ONE, but he/she won’t be anyone we’ve heard of most likely.”

    I mentioned punk rock bands & rappers NOT hanging out with Palin, but you’re out of your little mind. As TonyM just said (which you will deny he said it, even though it’s RIGHT THERE), Nugent is an embarrassment, but then, so is Michele Bachmann, Pigboy, Glenn Beck, etc, etc, and so on and so forth. Get some sleep. I honestly think you’re becoming unglued. Anyone can see, what you can’t seem to see. It’s right in front of you. IF you were a friend of mine, I’d be worried. I am worried anyway, for any Democrat that might be around you. :eek:

  32. Tennessean says:

    anomaly, Good night. Sleep tight. Don’t let the bedbugs bite.
