Hey, why not?  She’s got her  BS down pat.  Her recent denial of her Gangsta Rap comments make her the perfect running mate to any of the front runners. If you haven’t been following this, she told Blender magazine that “`Gangsta rap’ was a ploy to convince black people to kill each other. `Gangsta rap’ didn’t exist.”

She went on to say that she wears a gold AK-47 around her neck to, “to symbolize strength, power and killing ‘em dead.”

And just like her political counterparts, she spun her way out of it a few days later. “My comments about `gangsta rap’ were in no way trying to suggest that the government is responsible for creating this genre of rap music,” she now claims.  Keys did not respond to our request to answer, who she now believes is responsible for “the ploy to convince black people to kill each other.” However, our sources indicate she has been in touch with O.J. Simpson and may soon implicate the real killer of Nicole Brown Simpson or Pee Wee Herman. It could go either way.

As for the gold AK-47, she retreated as well, claiming her friends gave her the nickname, “as an acronym for Alicia Keys and a metaphor for wowing people with my music and performances, `killing ‘em dead’ on stage. The reference was in no way meant to have a literal, political or negative connotation.”

She went on to say that, “I think all of us, including our leaders, could be doing more to address these problems including drugs, gang violence, crime, and other related social issues.”  Really? All of us?  Doing More? You mean like not wearing solid gold guns around our necks?

Carry on, Citizens!
