Are Rappers Going Crazy?
On Jadakiss' hit song "Why?" Jadakiss asks "Why did Bush knock down the towers." In a recent interview with SOHH.com Beanie Siegel asks "Did they really find Saddam? You think that's Saddam, for real?" When rappers make stupid statements like this it just makes them seem ignorant and gives ammunition for the likes of O'Reilly.

are these comments really that strange to you? african-americans tend to believe in conspiracy theories. as a whole, african-americans don't trust the government. you could be using this as some sort of irony here, but i'm unclear as tonality is not transferred through posts. but many do see bush as responsible - given that there were briefs and reports that a terrorist attack may happen soon and no one in government investigated any further. i'm not sure of your ethnic background, but in the black community, if it comes from the government - we just don't truss'
Cal, Jada is a dummy and so is Beanie. This is what we get when we want our entertainers to be politicians.
Blacks are keen to conspiracy theories because we have been knocked over the head by so many shady things. Who would think the CIA would sell crack to us? Who would think the gov't would give us syphilis? It happened before, so why not now? That's the thought most Blacks have.
