From CNN:

Superstar rapper Jay-Z recalls that in the closing days of the presidential race, Barack Obama asked the rapper for help on the campaign trail and told him: “We need to end this game Jordan-style.”

“He was calling me saying it was the fourth quarter and how we need to end this game Jordan-style,” Jay-Z told New York radio station Hot 97 on Tuesday. “He was joking. He has a good sense of humor.”

Jay-Z held several concerts for Obama during the presidential race to help the campaign register voters, and during inauguration week in January, he treated Obama campaign staffers to a private performance at the D.C. Armory in Washington.

    Being a Political Science Major I understand the notion to rally people for popularity. Although I also know that the actual “common vote” doesn’t make a difference being that the electorial college elects the President. So tell me how this post is actually relevant?
