Rapper Lupe Fiasco Kicked Off Inaugural Stage

I mean come on! Dude spent 30 minutes ranting and raving about some nonsense pertaining to war. I know the organizers of the inaugural event tried to present a broad coalition of different artists and styles, but they should have known that having Lupe Fiasco at an Obama event would be a time bomb waiting to explode!

The rapper had been repeating politically charged lyrics for an unusually long time when event officials forced him to stop, according to various attendees.

“So Lupe played one anti-war song for 30 min and said he didn’t vote for Obama and eventually was told to move on to the next song,” Josh Rogin, a reporter at Foreign Policy,tweeted from the bash hosted by StartUp RockOn. “Lupe refused to move to the next song so a team of security guards came on stage and told him to go.”

Video of the incident posted online shows Lupe rapping part of the song “Words I Never Said” before he’s asked to stop.  “Limbaugh is a racist, Glenn Beck is a racist,” he says. “Gaza Strip was getting bombed, Obama didn’t say s—t. That’s why I ain’t vote for him, next one either.”
