Recently Young Jeezy and Jay-z were criticized for their current single "My President is Black" and in a way have all the reason to do so. Freedom of speech, but Bill O'Reilly particularly called out Young Jeezy and to guest on his show. Young Jeezy opened up his house to Katrina victims, has spent his own money in feeding and providing for victims and the poor. I'm curious to see what Bill's yearly donations list looks like. Granted Jeezy is part of a genre of music that can be explicit, derogatory and at times the wrong example on how one should live their life but the same could be said about actors who portray less than reputable characters or directors and producers who make violent and offensive movies. This past election we have seen the ugly in many, Blacks, whites and other minorities, we've seen how much opposition their is about electing a black president, even if he is more qualified than most. For those who thought the race barrier was gone, its been dormant and it came out again. At least young jeezy has an excuse for rapping and doing what he does. Whats your excuse Bill? Maybe like you wrote in your book, your excuse is the life of privilege you led. Your show is based on rants that sometimes are not thought through enough. I've said enough.
