West Coast rap legend Ice Cube is getting political as ever. The hip-hop veteran went online this week to share his thoughts on the upcoming presidential election and unloaded frustrations toward the Democratic Party over not putting enough emphasis on the Black community.
Ice Cube Speaks Out
This weekend, Cube went to Instagram and asked his followers to consider what’s in the Democratic National Convention and electing Joe Biden into the presidency for Black voters.
“A lot of people getting up there talking and everybody really eating it up, throwing their hands in the air like they just don’t care — but what I didn’t hear was, ‘What’s in it for us?’What’s in it for the Black community?’ Besides the same old thing we’ve been getting from these parties. What’s in it for us, for real? … I didn’t hear anybody mention a contract with Black America — and I don’t know why because it’s one of the most comprehensive reform documents that’s come about in a long time that could really address the problem. But the way it looks, they don’t have a plan.”
High-Key Details
Cube took things even further and asked followers to consider the idea of President Donald Trump losing the presidential election.
“But if you get Trump out then now what? What do we get in the first 100 days? That’s what we’re trying to figure out, what do we actually get — things they could get just like that, overnight. They just pulled $3 trillion out their a** and gave it to their friends. That’s American taxpayer money. That’s your money that they just gave away. … Where’s our f***ing bailout? Where’s the bailout? Not the PPP loan that they didn’t give us, where’s the bailout? I don’t want to hear about deficit, I don’t want to hear about what our generations going to have to pay — if we don’t have s**t, they ain’t going to have anything to pay nothing.”
The DNC featured a handful of prominent Democratic congressional leaders including Joe Biden and his Vice President running mate Kamala Harris.
Wait, There’s More
Last weekend, presidential candidate hopeful Kanye West hit up Twitter to publicly share his thoughts on Kamala Harris joining the race. In addition to dishing on his excitement in running against her, Yeezy said his late mother Donda West and Kamala would have been friends.
“I know my mom and Kamala Harris would have been friends … congratulations on being the democratic Vice President nominee 🙏🏾 … all love and respect from the future president 🕊 It’s an honor to run against you” -Kanye West’s Twitter
