Rapper DMX: Obama Who?!

Posted Mar 17th 2008 12:19PM by TMZ Staff

DMXApparently DMX is not only crazy as the day is long, but he's also living on another planet.

The rapper did a bizarre interview recently with XXL, where he claims he has never heard of anyone named Barack Obama! He then proceeded to make fun of Obama's name -- because the name DMX is clearly ingenious.

DMX continued digging a hole for himself, saying he hasn't followed the presidential race at all and that "The president is a puppet anyway. The president don't make no damn decisions."

Lucky for the rest of the America, DMX revealed he's not allowed to vote because he's a convicted felon.

Calls to DMX's rep for a statement were not returned.

12. I understand he is dumb for not knowing who Obama is, and im not sticking up for him-but you guy's are aware that the president is just the nations image. He does not call the shots and you would be in idiot to believe that one person would decide the fate of many, that is why he has advisors all around him. So yes DMX is out of it, but his comment about the president was right on point.

13. It’s a common misconception, but most convicted felons can vote after they’ve served time. All they have to do is reapply for the privilege of voting, and they’re back on the rolls, so long as they aren’t currently in prison or on parole.

He may be dumb ass hell for not knowing who Barack is, but he sure as hell is better looking than that sweaty thing pictured!!
