Obama Mega-Booster Jay-Z: 'Not Really Into Politics'

Rapper Jay-Z, who recently held a fundraiser that raised $4 million for President Barack Obama’s campaign, said he was just not that into politics. 

Jay-Z told MTV News he was “not really into politics” because “a lot of people are serving their own agendas, so they just argue back and forth and they think about their next term.”

“And it’s more about themselves than about the people,” Jay-Z said. “They’re servicing the people, but we rarely get anything done because they’re going back and forth with whatever they’re doing, so I’m not really into politics.”

He could have been speaking about Obama, but the rapper said he had to support Obama because he “is the first black President ever.”
