A rapper who’s earned millions is now a voice of conscience on Letterman. Say it isn’t so!

Rapper, Jay-Z took to the David Letterman show to promote his Netflix series, “My Next Guest Needs No Introduction” this past week and of course, the conversation got political:

Letterman: “I’ll be honest with you, I’m beginning to lose confidence in the Trump administration.”

Jay-Z: “I think it’s actually a great thing. I think that what he’s forcing people to do is have conversations and [forcing] people to band together and work together. You can’t really address something that’s not revealed. He’s bringing out an ugly side of America that we wanted to believe was gone, and it’s still here. We still gotta deal with it.We have to talk about the N-word and we have to talk about why white men are so privileged in this country.”

The ugly side of America, eh? This coming from a man who cheated on his wife and who drops the N-word constantly in his lyrics. Since we cannot address what is not revealed, let’s reveal some of Jay-Z’s collection of lyrics, shall we? Note: Explicit Language/NSFW. Without Further adieu, Exhibit Number One:

Can I get a F—- YOU
to these b*tches from all of my n*ggaz
who don’t love hoes, they get no dough
Can I get a WOOP WOOP
to these n*ggaz from all of my b*tches
who don’t got love for n*ggaz without dubs?
Now can you bounce wit me, uhh–Jay-Z, “Can I Get A ..

Lyrical prose at its best. Exhibit Number Two:

This is that ignorant s#it you like
N*gga f–k sh*t, ass b*tch, trick precise, c’mon
I got that ignorant sh*t you love
N*gga f–k sh*t, maricón puta and drugs, c’mon
I got that ignorant shit you need
N*gga f–k sh*t, ass b*tch, trick plus weed, c’mon
I’m only tryin’ to give you what you want
N*gga f–k sh*t, ass b*tch, you like it, don’t front-Jay Z, Ignorant S#it

A beautiful melody, isn’t it? Exhibit Three:

We exit stage left, hop in the Lexus
Treat me like a baby, mouth on her breast-es
May I suggest that it’s
A lot of long-legged chicks in short-ass dresses
Go find you one
Go get your dance on, go grind on one, damn
Go find you one
Go get your dance on, go grind on one

Quick question, “Yo, why you over here?”
So many hoes in here
My office hours 9 to 5, whyon’tcha call me there
It’s so many hoes in here
I ain’t tryin’ to be rude dude, whyon’tcha disappear?
There’s so many hoes in here
I understand you got issues but I really don’t care
There’s so many hoes in here-Jay-Z, 2 Many Hoes

Chivalry and class. Exhibit Four:

She said ‘Ye can we get married at the mall?
I said look you need to crawl ‘fore you ball
Come and meet me in the bathroom stall
And show me why you deserve to have it all
(Ball so hard) that sh*t cray, (that sh*t cray) ain’t it Jay?
(Ball so hard) what she order (what she order) fish fillet
(Ball so hard) your whip so cold (whip so cold) this old thing
(Ball so hard) act like you’ll ever be around motherf–kas like this again
Bougie girl, grab her hand
F–k that b*tch she don’t wanna dance
Excuse my French but I’m in France (I’m just sayin’)-Jay-Z, N*ggas in Paris

What a guy. And who can forget the pièce de résistance, the song Jay-Z wrote about a certain former POTUS:

“My president is black
In fact
He’s half-white
So even in a racist mind, he’s half-right
So if you got a racist mind, you be alright

You can keep ya puss, I don’t want no more Bush / no more war, no more Iraq, no more white lies, my president is black!”-My President Is Black

Jay-Z, who was part of the Barack Obama’s inaugural line-up in 2009. Who knew? He’s now become a voice of morality and claims Donald Trump’s presidency was the solitary catalyst in ushering in an “ugly side of America” we thought was “gone”? Because their race-baiting isn’t at all ugly. Cop-hating and glorifying it in your lyrics, videos and performances isn’t ugly. Calling someone the n-word is only ugly if you are white, apparently otherwise, Jay-Z can go all day. Drug use, abuse and dealing isn’t ugly because the violence surrounding thug life is beautiful when you make millions rapping about it. You rap all the way out of your Bentley and the VIP lines at the club all while families are in the sheer pit of reality dealing with loved ones who are addicts and it’s hell! Yep. And, by all means, calling women b#tches and hoes and rhyming and stealing about hooking up in bathroom stalls with one who supposedly just wants you so you can buy her Gucci has female empowerment and romance, flowers and feels written all over it.

Be careful when you point fingers, Jay-Z, because there will be three pointing right back at you.
