Found via Washington City Paper’s blog, Black Plastic Bag (originally from XXL):
XXL: Are you following the presidential race?
DMX: Not at all.
You’re not? You know there’s a Black guy running, Barack Obama and then there’s Hillary Clinton.
His name is Barack?!
Barack Obama, yeah.
Barack?!
Barack.
What the fuck is a Barack?! Barack Obama. Where he from, Africa?
Yeah, his dad is from Kenya.
Barack Obama?
Yeah.
What the fuck?! That ain’t no fuckin’ name, yo. That ain’t that nigga’s name. You can’t be serious. Barack Obama. Get the fuck outta here.
Click the link at the top of the post for the rest of this brilliant back-and-forth. Hey, Barack, if it’s any consolation, there are way less people who know DMX. Say, shouldn’t Earl Simmons be in jail for animal abuse or reckless driving or getting "raped" by a woman and failing to show up in court to get his due? Oh wait — he has bipolar disorder. Well, that explains some of it. . .

I’ll vote for anyone who can make The Man stop stealing my guns and telling me how to raise my own damn dogs in my own damn house.
What the fuck is a Casey?

if the recording of this interview is available it would make a pretty funny rap song.
