A favorite of mine from the excellent Madlib Motown Mix.
Sweet Home Chicago ft President Obama
Whether or not you agree with his politics, you have to admit Obama is one of the coolest presidents we have ever had. He can shoot 3 pointers with ease, sing some Al Green, and even help fire a marshmallow … Continue reading
