Jay-Z Campaigns For Obama

Hey Ohio! Did You Get This Phone Call From Jay-Z?

March 4, 2008

by CitizenSugar 7

It's not just Jessica Alba and company campaigning for Barack Obama — Jay-Z just dropped his newest recording, a robo-call urging Ohio residents to get out and vote. Take a listen . . .

What do you think? To quote Mr. Z, "Sah-weet?" Is it an instant hit destined for your iPod or just another dinnertime disruption?

Lame. I would imagine that undecided voters would prefer a robocall from the candidate or his/his spouse or a real, nervous volunteer over a celebrity any day. A Jay-Z robocall just doesn't seem very...genuine. And celebrities can be sort of polarizing.

You have got to be kidding me.

Being a Texas resident, I wasn't one of those fortunate enough to recieve this message from Jay-Z. I did, however, get two robocalls. One from Barack Obama yesterday and one from his wife today.

I think this is hot. They are trying to get an untapped market of citizens who usually dont vote or know how to go about it. I am happy that more celebrities are stepping up and getting involved themselves for any candidate.

I despise robo-calls from politicians. It'd be an immediate delete or hang up.
