Rap artist Lupe Fiasco dragged off stage at inaugural concert after anti-Obama diatribe
A rap artist was forced off the stage at an inaugural event in Washington, D.C. Sunday night after he performed an anti-Obama diatribe.
The scene unfolded at The Hamilton one block from the White House as Lupe Fiasco, a Grammy-nominated rapper from Chicago, began performing 'Words I Never Said,' a single he recorded in February of 2011.
'I really think the war on terror is a bunch of bull***t, just a poor excuse for you to use up all your bullets,' he rapped. '... Rush Limbaugh is a racist, Glenn Beck is a racist, Gaza Strip was getting bombed, Obama didn't say s**t. That's why I ain't vote for him, next one either, I'm a part of the problem, my problem is I'm peaceful and I believe in the people.'
