“George Bush Don’t Like Black People”

Brian Cook

Check out the remix of Kanye West's Golddigger by the Houston-group, the Legendary K.O. here. Hard to pick the best lyrics, but these stood out for me: "Niggas are starving and they dyin' of thirst/ I bet he had to go and check on them refineries first/ Makin' a killing on the price of gas/ He woulda been up in Connecticut twice as fast."
