Rapper Lupe Fiasco Lost A Lot Of Friends After Calling Obama A Terrorist

“I was immediately blackballed,” Fiasco said. “I lost a lot of friends… Board members of my foundation [Lupe Fiasco Foundation] stepped down. I lost a lot of sponsorships. I had people threaten me.”

Those are the words of rapper Lupe Fiasco in an interview with Katie Couric. The controversial artist opened up about his troubles that began when he spoke candidly about President Obama continuing the policies of former President George W. Bush.

“We don’t mind pointing a finger at [George W. Bush],” Lupe said, “but when we get [Obama] who, unfortunately, has to carry on some of those same policies, but he’s a great guy, it becomes a weird place for people to kind of critique.”
