Just spotted this on Def Jux’ YouTube channel. The Mighty Underdogs are apparently a group composed of Lateef, Gift of Gab, and Headnodic – and this track features MF DOOM.

Danny! “And I Love H.E.R.” Album Review
“Like them young boys say, let’s keep it real” (credit Eddie Murphy in Life) – the game is overly saturated.

In joining the protest, Nas cites FOX’s portrayal of the Obamas as outsiders, as well as an on-screen graphic referring to Michelle Obama as “Obama’s baby mama” and the confusing of Obama and Osama by a pundit, who joked that they should both be assassinated. In February, Bill O’Reilly talked about a “lynching party” to deal with Michelle Obama. (more…)
