EXCLUSIVE: Jay-Z Supports Barack With Free Shows

By Nolan Strong

Hip-Hop star Jay-Z will lend support to Democratic presidential nominee Barack Obama and encourage young people to vote by giving two free concerts this weekend, AllHipHop.com has learned.

 

Jay-Z, born Shawn Carter, will perform a free show in Detroit on Saturday (October 4) followed by another free performance in Miami on Saturday (October 5).

 

Tickets for the free concerts will be distributed at Obama’s local campaign offices, AllHipHop.com has confirmed.

 

Obama, who admitted a fondness for Jay-Z and Kanye West, expressed his support for Hip-Hop during an interview with MTV Host/Hip-Hop personality Sway, following a presidential rally in Greensboro, North Carolina.

 

He also praised the entrepreneurial mind state that rappers often possess.

 

“In the past, musicians oftentimes were commodities.” Obama told MTV News. “They were just shuffled around…they did well, but they didn't have the vision to say, 'I'm going to build a business. I'm going to build my own studio. I'm going to create my own production operations.' I think they're a lot more sophisticated than in the past, and that is a wonderful thing."

 

In related news, Obama will debate Republican presidential nominee Senator John McCain two more times: once in Tennessee on October 7 and again in New York on October 15.

I said it before and I'll say it again. All of these celebrities/rappers/actors did not support Barack Obama until he officially secured the nomination. Where were all these so called supporters during Clinton and Obama going neck and neck for the nomination. ALL them came around AFTER the fact. Yes, it is true. Good cause but, it's too late the hip-hop community is already behind Barack Obama. We don't need a concert 4-5 weeks before election. I support Jay-z but, you mad LATE son!!!!

Wassup Sears Tower and Hellraiser!!! @ Maine Man I feel u, I have friends saying the same shit and I stopped talking to their stupid asses for a min, if Obama doesn't win I will blame them and I will never speak to them again! I think people who don't register to vote are puppets because they're letting someone else do it for them....Trooper laced me up on info I didn't even know, if you're a felon in Texas as long as you're not on probation or parole you can still register, I shared this info with some people I know with a criminal past and only a few went and registered...it's sad but it pisses me off. This is history and Im proud to be a part of it!!!

@T ROC
seems u always get it twisted.get ur facts right b4 u make comments.Jay,Ludacris among others have been supporting obama way before he was nominated.

no hating on Jay we congratulate him for supporting a brother but the fact that the concert is free doesnt mean Hov is doing it 4 free. U know how Hov likes to do it .50/50.ANY WAY 50% DISCOUNT IS STILL A GOOD LOOK

Hey, If anybody know JZ they know he aint doing shit for free. He may not get paid now but Barak gone get a call after January. I don't know about yall but I would love to have the Pres. Of The US owe me a favor. Even if he don't win, he is a powerful sen. so thats a good look for the Jiggaman.

You know what, I like what I see on the comment board. People are excited and feel they have a lot at stake. We all do, so the only way to guarantee your voice is heard is to VOTE. Make sure you hold all your friends accountable and make them register to Vote so we can elect our candidate. Obama '08...CHANGE WE CAN BELIEVE IN

@Quiseebaby..lmao... Yea and I feel you on that...Niggas riding big ass trucks with rims on them, majority... of them fronting like the economy ain't effecting them....Niggas want to shine before they grind.... For example no shit...One of my good friends he is one of those types...

This nigga has and Escalade ESV (big boy), Denali (big boy), bike, Monte Carlo, and a box Chevy... All of them ride on 22 and better...Tell me why this nigga doesn't own a house? He stays in a fucked up neighborhood, furniture is worn out, and all of his tires on each vehicle are going bald...lol....My word! I try to spit that shit to him, but you know niggas never want to listen to nothing positive...I have a 2008 Lincoln Mkz( first car)This nigga want to clown on me because this past April I went to buy a 2007 Dodge Caliber as my second car....I did not give a fuck, that car gets 33mpg thats impeccable...You think I'm worried about niggas...Hell naw...I'm living for tomorrow these niggas living for the moment...We will see who will be laughing at the end....

I have to go hard my dude...It just pisses me off that there are some black folk who still aren't registered and isnt up on game...It's like do you know anything else besides money, hoes, clothes, Madden, and Sportscenter...I love those things too, but the world is bigger than that...I'm a faithful CNN watcher...You have to know whats going on in the world...I wish niggas will Get off that petty shit....And think longevity...

I don't think Artists realizes how much power they posess... Can you imagine if the top players in the game will throw a free benefit concert in there general regions to get people to register to vote..WOW.... I believe it will be and amazing turnout...

Obama 08

@  MAINE MAN :

Man Im wit u. We probably would be cool if I knew u cause u sound like me with some of my niggas. U know u cant tell niggas shit. I'd say u doin good nigga!lol. 08 and 07 nigga u good!!! Shit I got the Mitsubishi Eclipse 06 joint. Nothing major. But check this shit out right here.....

Im from Michigan but I live in Wisconsin right now. When I very first got my whip I went home. So a couple of my boys came threw. Now one of my boys caked up cause he had just got drafted to the NFL. He still there but I aint gone say his name cause his squad shitty right now... ( Firing coaches and benching starting QB's **hint** lol) but we all just talking shit bs'n or whatever. So one of my boys see my shit off to side and was like "Thats U?" Im like yea. He like " I wish i had one of them. Whats that?" Im like a Ecplise. This nigga was like man u killing me. This nigga had a 2000 Yukon on like 26's candy painted and all that shit. My shit was just basic wit tints. Im like nigga yo rims and paint bout my shit. He gone say " but u grown fly and Im just hood fly! Plus u aint gotta spend all this gas and shit. And my shit always fuckin up!.."    Im like nigga all tha bread u spent on that shit why u aint just get something off the lot and pay it off. He said he aint have credit! NIGGAZ! Thats my people tho. ( It wasnt the NFL nigga tho...His whip was rediculous but he could afford his wit that contract money, but this other friend hustle tho.) Like u said all my nigga do is get fucked up, fuck hoes and play MAdden....Not that I dont, just not everyday

Point is this shit affects everybody. Niggaz voting can do something for gas and even your credit niggas! I watch CNN every night. I do shit niggaz shouldnt do....like PAY MY BILLS! lol

Voting doesn't count, Obama is an uncle tom, McCain sucks too, fuck em both,

The President is selected by the rich and powerful and not by the people, voting doesn't count for anything, they don't even tally the votes, they just make up a number, it's the biggest scam in the world
