Twitter Responds to Ben Carson’s Rap Ad With Glorious Results
Didn’t you hear the news? Ben Carson dropped a sick radio ad, rapping his views. Twitter definitely heard it.
It’s 60 seconds of pure, unadulterated, political bliss meant for “major metropolitan markets” (i.e. urban markets). As expected, social media’s greatest hits did not disappoint when the good doctor’s bars* started trending on Twitter.
Even if you’re neither a fan of rap music or a part of “Black Twitter,” there’s still enough meta-comedy gold here for you and everyone else to enjoy.
It's going to be an amazing day on #BlackTwitter. https://t.co/caBgb0TJzc #CarsonRaps

* — Not actually Carson’s bars, as he did’t do the rap himself. No doubt a missed opportunity.
