99 problems but a Clinton ain't one

So Obama's a hip hop head --
The issue of Hip Hop music and lyrics have also surfaced in this campaign, with Obama's camp coming under fire for the use of a Jay-Z song.

During Obama's victory party in Iowa, Jay's "99 Problems" was played over the loud speaker. Some imply that the line "99 problems but a bitch ain't one" was a thinly veiled shot at his political rival.

The Clinton camp says they "didn't know" Obama used the song and Obama says he is a fan of rap music, dismissing the notion that the song selection was aimed at his political rival.

"I tell you what, I can tell you the kinds of stuff I love dancing to . . . I'm sort of the generation of Stevie Wonder and Earth Wind & Fire," he said in an interview with CNN. "But I'm sort of hip to the younger stuff. You know, like Beyoncé's 'Crazy in Love.' That's a good song to dance to. Eminem . . . although he curses sometimes."

LMAO... now this next clip is semi-unrelated but cool nonetheless.

Peace... Obama 08
