Fat Joe: “Daddy Yankee Is A Sell Out”
Here is what Fat Joe had to say about Daddy Yankee endorsing John McCain,
“I opened the newspaper and got sick to my stomach,” Joe continued. “I felt like I wanted to vomit when I seen that. The reason why I called him a sellout is because I feel he did that for a [publicity] look, rather than the issues that are affecting his people that look up to him. How could you want John McCain in office when George Bush and the Republicans already have half a million people losing their homes in foreclosure? We’re fighting an unjust war. It’s the Latinos and black kids up in the frontlines, fighting that war. … We over here trying to take the troops out of Iraq and bring peace. This guy immediately wants war. If not with Iraq or Afghanistan, he’ll start a new one with Iran. I feel real disgusted that Daddy Yankee would do that. Either he did that for a look, or he’s just not educated on politics.”
“I travel the world doing shows, and people hate the United States because of the policies of George Bush,” he explained.” “If he believes John McCain is the better candidate for the Latinos,” Joe said, “we could sit down. Even if he wants to get into a debate, we can debate anywhere — New York, Puerto Rico.”
I like when rappers speak out on issues and actually make sense. Fat Joe seems as though, he’s speaking on things that he actually looked into, rather than having a typical emotional lash out.
Daddy Yankee said he supports McCain because of his immigration laws, Daddy Yankee is from Puerto Rico immigration laws don’t apply to him. Puerto Ricans are free to enter the United States whenever they want.
Besides that, McCain is big on immigration laws because he wants foreigners to build US cities for cheap wages!
Im so glad fat joe said something, i was thinking the same thing yesterday when i seen that daddy yankee was supporting mccain, thats crazy!!
Wow, good for Joe man. Anyone who watched Obama last night know’s that he is def the answere that we need. Especially the young generation, people in their 20’s and 30’s.
BRAINWASHED AND AN UNEDUCATED!
i wish people would stop hate’n if you so concerned why don’t u get out there and do something ur self ya’ll trippin!!daddy yankee doin what he thinks needs to be done!start doin somethin ur selfs!!!!!!!!!
margarita,

props 2 joe
Fat Joe is the truth and has always kept 100.
margarita,
yo, maybe i’m just not up on this, but what exactly is daddy yankee doing besides running off at the mouth? talk is cheap.
Im not a big fan of joe mind you im a bronx latino myself but aside all his discrepencies Ima have to agree with Joe on this one. The irony of a latino actually endorsing mc cain like he stand for any of our causes is absurd. Daddy Yankee has just sold his soul. I hope it was worth it. I hate when ignorant entertainers dont understand the influence they have or position they must play, settled for crumbs. what a house nigga!
Yep We see this all the time …you wanna be cool be with the blacks …but never vote for those monkey ass baboons.. even if daddy yankee is obviously mixed!!
Yankee has just committed career suicide . He was garbage anyway .
Latinos need to stop thinking they are white just because they can change their hair color and have blue eyes. Get it to together people its just a conceived plan to keep us from uniting. Read about history and be smarter than the plan.
yankee’s problem is that he wants the gringos to see him as one of them. and that ain’t happening. everyone latino knows that the lighter ones of us who have problems with the prietos (even the mulatos), get a few dollars in their pockets get more than a little crazy in the head and think the white ones will except them. yankee’s not white, who cares where your ancestors are from? i care because i know the struggle, but mccain doesn’t give a damn about us and only sees us as latinos/blacks/asians that won’t ever measure up to him. i’m cuban…my grandma’s family were chinese immigrants from havana, the other one was a prieta. i’m glad Joe had sense enough to be real with a problem in our communities.
? a fuck is wrong with u guys i know that daddy yankee is wrong but all people have the right to do what ever they wnat to so just !!go and fuck your mother!!
