Parody Song Pokes Fun at President Causes Controversy as Video Goes Viral


There's been a number of comedians who have taken their shots at either imitating or making fun of President Obama. Most of the gestures have been hit or miss. This past week things changed when video directors Martin Usher and James Davis created a character named Baracka Flacka which is a play on popular rap star Wacka Flocka and his song 'Hard in the Paint' which they parodied.

When I saw this video I didn’t know whether I should laugh or cry…On one hand its funny as hell. On the other hand we have a sitting President who is the constant target of racially charged jokes and threats. If Usher and Davis can go there with this raunchy song which uses the 'N' word throughout the chorus and in the lyrics, why can't Rush Limbaugh or Sean Hannity? Was a line crossed or is this just good fun with an adult theme?

In any case I certainly hope President Obama calls up his friends Jay-Z and Ludacris and has them give a solid response to this.. I mean the line about him making long speeches and putting people to sleep can’t go unchecked. Also I hope homeboy James Davis has his tax record straight cause you know they gonna audit..LOL

PS.. Do not listen to the song with the volume turned loud at work or in front of young kids. The language is colorful as he uses the N word a lot.

    Once again the ignorance of a few "do anything for fame" This country already has to deal with the Tea Party and their racist attitudes now we have a couple of idiots who would probably make fun of their own mothers for a mere 15 minutes of fame. This is not only disrespectful but for these so call human beings who are black to do this to our first black president are common trash and the video should be pulled.
