You should know by now how much we love mixtapes and Obama. So it's no surprise that we're here talking about Nas' latest and the prelude to his controversially titled album, which is due out July 15.
The mixtape, which technically dropped yesterday, with DJ Green Lantern (who does most of the producing) features a couple tracks that will be on the full-length. A highlight though is the track "Black President," which is sort of a hesitant tribute to Obama as it echos Tupac's lines from the song "Changes" ("Although it seems heaven sent / We ain't ready to see a black President"). While Obama's "Yes We Can" ala will.i.am fights the skepticism. All-around good track and just in time for the nomination.
CNN took a look at the track a couple days ago.
