The background
The US presidential election 2012 isn’t just about Democrat versus Republican; Obama versus Romney. No; it’s also about the YouTube rap parodies. Let battle commence!
In the blue corner
Obama ‘performs’ Sexy and I Know It.
Obama has 99 problems, but Mitt ain’t one.
Obama promises to perform Young Jeezy track.
In the red corner
Man says “Mitt, Mitt, Mitt Romney” a lot; serves eviction notice on White House.
Nicki Minaj apparently endorses Mitt Romney; swears a lot.
Rapper Nicki Minaj later claimed her Romney-supporting lyric was in fact sarcastic, and thanked Obama for his understanding.
Ha! Thank you for understanding my creative humor & sarcasm Mr. President, the smart ones always do… *sends love & support* @barackobama
