‘Republican Woman’ Rap Video Avoids Gender-Based Attacks

Jasiri X, the Pittsburgh rapper who last asked the musical question “What if the Tea Party Was Black?” has dropped another topical hip-hop track that manages to avoid the gender-based political attacks that are all the rage right now. “Republican Woman” references the widely-reported trend of high-profile women in GOP politics, but manages to keep its barbs gender-neutral. Unlike MSNBC, Jasiri even keeps his Sarah Palin stand-in appropriately clothed.

It’s also drop-dead funny, taking aim at Christine O’Donnell, Sarah Palin, Jan Brewer, Sharron Angle, Meg Whitman, and Michele Bachmann, while also pulling off a clean Brett Favre reference and an O’Donnell-inspired takeoff on Abbott and Costello‘s “Who’s on First?” routine. Even some conservatives will laugh at Jasiri’s blunt summation of Brewer’s odd tourism pitch. Check it out: (h/t Davey D)

Jasirix is a wonderful rapper. Unfortunately the large record companies prefer to sign rappers who act like modern day minstrels and buffoons. He previos video “what if the Tea Party Was black was right on time. Jasirix and Bill Maher’s Brett Favre segment a couple of weeks ago really describe the state of right wing blue collar/community college conservative Republican politics in America today.
