Now here’s the voice of reason
Rapper 50 Cent switches from being a Clinton supporter to being an Obama fan. “But don’t count on me” says he. Gosh, another in an endless list of “why is this even on the news?” stories.
(CNN) – Hillary Clinton appears to have lost a high-profile backer to rival Barack Obama.
Rapper 50 Cent, who told Time magazine last September he was supporting the New York senator’s White House bid, now says he has decided to shift his allegiance to Obama.
The multi-platinum star, born Curtis Jackson, told MTV News Friday that Obama’s recent speech on race was the deciding factor for his decision.
“I heard Obama speak,” he said. “He hit me with that he-just-got-done-watching-’Malcolm X,’ and I swear to God, I’m like, ‘Yo, Obama!’
“I’m Obama to the end now, baby!”
But the musician also admitted he’s lost interest in the protracted Democratic race, and may not support either candidate.
“To be honest, I haven’t been following that anymore. I lost my interest,” he said. “I listened to some of the debates and things that they were saying, and I just got lost in everything that was going on…Don’t look for my vote, for me to determine nothing on that. Just say, ‘50 Cent, he don’t know, so don’t ask Fiddy.’
He also said he didn’t think the country is ready for a black president.
“I just think there’s people that might not be ready for an African-American president,” he said. “It’ll be an issue, believe it or not.”
“You’ve got to be conscious of racism, period,” he continued. “And it’s still there. We don’t deal with it as often as my grandparents did. My grandparents grew up in South Carolina, so they experienced the heart of that.”
And we all know that dear “50” knows his facts when it comes to race and stereotyping. So listen up and be told. Word.
Niggas screw they face up at me
On some real shit son, they don’t want beef
I cock that, aim that shit out the window
Spray, there ain’t a shell left in my heat
Ya’ll niggas better lay down, yeah I mean stay down
Get hit with a K round, ya ass ain’t gon’ make it
You niggas gon’ get layed out in blood and ya brains out
Have you on the concrete, shiverin’ and shakin’
I’m from Southside mothafucka, where the gats explode
If you feel like you on fire, boy drop and roll
niggas’ll heat ya ass up cause they heart turns cold
Now you can be a victim or you can lock and load
The party jump, with shorty bouncin’ that ass
I won’t fuck, gimme a second, I’ma holla, I’ma see whats up
I got my razor in my hand, got my pistol in my trunk
Carve ya ass up nice, you play me like a punk

Not that very many people ever read this far down, but this blog was the creation of Allan Kelly and his friend Vilmar. Vilmar moved on to his own blog some time ago, and Allan ran this place alone until his sudden and unexpected death partway through 2006. We all miss him. A lot. Even though he is gone this site will always still be more than a little bit his. We who are left to carry on the BMEWS tradition owe him a great debt of gratitude, and we hope to be able to pay that back by following his last advice to us all:
It's been a long strange trip without you Skipper, but thanks for pointing us in the right direction and giving us a swift kick in the behind to get us going. Keep lookin' down on us, will ya? Thanks.

Oh, and here's some kind of visitor flag counter thingy. Hey, all the cool blogs have one, so I should too. The Visitors Online thingy up at the top doesn't count anything, but it looks neat. It had better, since I paid actual money for it.
