Hip Hop On Deck Interviews Hip Hop For President / www.hiphopondeck.com
Bay Area, California rapper HipHop For President presents “The Political Liars”, his new single and musical centerpiece of his bid for the US presidency this year. Formerly known as Alpha Leo, the rapper officially changed his government name to HipHop For President, and his policies include legalizing cannabis, reparations for African-Americans, legislation against police brutality, and college grants for high school students with at least a C average. “The Political Liars”, which currently has a couple hundred shares on Facebook, features lyrics like “every election we go through this session / last time it was Obama in the recession / George Bush got a re-election / Bill Clinton’s saxophone collection had Blacks minds gone / then he signed that bill to put us away, we still didn’t learn our lesson.” HipHop For President released the David & Goliath mixtape in 2012 (Datpiff), and has released one single from the forthcoming David & Goliath 2, “Jesus Was Black” (Soundcloud). His 2009 single “My Time Now” spent four weeks at the number one spot on Hartford, CT radio station KISS 95.7’s Underground Countdown. His presidential bid has received coverage in The Source (read) and on KCBS (listen). “Black people always get fooled every election cycle,” HipHop For President says. “I’m telling the people not to vote for any of the candidates in mainstream media.”


What inspired you to change your name?

I'm running for President of the United States so I had the idea that changing my name would allow me to stand out on the ballot...allowing me to resonate with my core constituency group..but if I would've known that these corrupt ass holes would've kept my name from appearing on the ballot anyway...well...I don't know.

What made you decide to take rap seriously?

When I lost my first job..I was always a good rapper..and the culture was always a part of me, so I decided to press up some Cd discs with a few songs on them and sell them on the streets. I remember my first demo Cd with about five songs on them..I had this one song on it called "virtuous woman"..it was a song uplifting women with virtues. People started buying it..I sold about 5 thousand copies..I wasn’t even twenty years old yet when I recorded the song..I was about 21 when I started selling the cds. I would go to college campuses and pitch the song while playing it for them with a stereo system. It worked.


What’s the first rap song you ever heard? Describe the moment.

The first song that I remember that stood out to me was NWA's "Fuck The Police".  These guys are celebrated today but I think people forget how controversial and villainized they were even by a lot of our own people. The kids like me loved it and understood what they were doing.


How did “The Political Liars” come together?

Knowing the history of politicians relating to Black people in America and knowing how deceitful, disingenuous, and condescending they are to us. What really baffled me was to see a guy like Killer Mike endorse a guy like Bernie Sanders. I would really like to have a conversation with Mike and find out what the fuck was he thinking. We have a responsibility to our people to not lead them towards the clutches of people like Bernie Sanders..he have so much legislation that is going to hurt Blacks in America. He plan to infringe on our second amendment rights for one..he voiced that he opposes reparations, he helped with the Bill Clinton and Hillary Clinton crime bill in the 90's..and he can't say not one thing that he have done for Blacks besides march in the 60s. The guy is damn near one hundred years old and he haven't done a dam thing for blacks..and you know why?...because he is an old white man...that's why. He refuses to acknowledge white privilege in America and Hillary might as well put on a Klan robe with all of the white supremacy she was a part of on the last forty years...ridiculous ..yep..these ass holes lie and that's why I'm running as an independent...not democrat anymore and not Independent Party....only Independent.


Predictions for 2016?

If black America don't group up fast then we are going to get one of these white supremacist politicians in office redirecting this country backwards. Donald Trump is on fire with his core constituency and the leader of the KKK just endorsed him and Donald "Chump" Trump literally have eerie horror movie soundtracks following him everywhere he goes..something terrible is going to happen if he is elected. He already resembles a Chucky doll reincarnated who decided he wants to re-direct his horror goals from children to Mexicans, Muslims, and Blacks..looking like he tried to get a tan and it just went wrong..the guy is a joke..and Hillary thinks just like him...but she is going to get millions of Blacks to vote for her just because she's a Democrat...and guess who gave financing to a lot of her past political endeavors....DONALD "CHUMP" TRUMP. Them two would make a good ol' fashioned white nationalist couple won’t they?..maybe if Hillary was a little more attractive she wouldn't have had to take Bill Clinton's bull shit..the bitch probably going to pass a law banning oral sex..and call it the Monica Luinsky Bill..Fuck a Democrat and a Republican..I'm done.
