Barack Is Down With Wilco

Barack Is Down With Wilco



Just days after name dropping Weezy, Barack Obama, at a Chicago nightclub, proclaimed that he loves alt-country rockers Wilco, right before lead singer Jeff Tweedy played a set. The statement was in regards to a rumor that the Illinois senator didn't have any music by them in his ipod.

Keep in mind that when Obama mentioned Lil Wayne it was in the context of making the youth realize that they probably don't possess the same lyrical chops as Weeze. In other words, Obama acknowledges Wayne's skills. Wilco and Lil Wayne, hm?? Perhaps Obama could be a candidate for our next guest reviewer? Read the full story at the Associated Press.
