Obama's New Pastor Quotes Rap Song Called "Fuck AmeriKKKa"


I think I'll quote the Who.

Meet the new boss, same as the old boss.



JERUSALEM – Otis Moss, the man slated to become the new chief pastor at the Trinity United Church of Christ, referenced a rap song during one of his recent sermons that includes among its lyrics "F--- America" and states the U.S. is "still with triple K" – referring to the white supremacist Ku Klux Klan.

Moss was lauded last week by Sen. Barack Obama as a "wonderful young pastor," and an acceptable choice to replace retiring pastor Rev. Jeremiah Wright, whose controversial remarks landed the presidential candidate in hot water.

Obama, though, told the New York Times last week he will continue his membership in Trinity. He referred to Moss as "wonderful.""Well, you know, the new pastor – the young pastor, Rev. Otis Moss, is a wonderful young pastor. And as I said, I still very much value the Trinity community," stated Obama.

The 37-year-old Moss, nicknamed the "hip-hop pastor" by congregants, will become the head of Trinity Christ in next month. In an interview in March with National Public Radio, Moss said he welcomes media scrutiny of his future sermons, calling the expected publicity "exciting."

"I'm excited because I'm hoping some people will get saved in the process," he said.But his recorded March sermons are already revealing some controversial rhetoric.

In his Easter sermon, Moss spoke at length about the media attention received by Wright. Moss claimed Wright was "lynched" by the international media.

"No one should start a ministry with lynching, no one should end their ministry with lynching," Moss said.

In a section of the sermon being circulated on You Tube Moss went on to quote a song by the rap artist Ice Cube:"Do you know who's got our back? If I was Ice Cube, I would say it a little differently – you picked the wrong folk to mess with," Moss exclaimed.

The song Moss was referring to is actually titled "Wrong N-gga to f--- with." It includes the lyrics "F--- America, still with the triple K" and it uses the spelling "AmeriKKKa."

The full lyrics provided in the album:


"Down wit the niggaz that I bail out
I'm platinum b-tch and I didn't have to sell out
F--- you Ice Cube, that's what the people say
F--- AmeriKKKa, still with the triple K
Cause you know when my nine goes buck
it'll bust your head like a watermelon dropped from 12 stories up
Now let's see who'll drop"

The cover image of Ice Cube's album, titled "Death Certificate," features a dead man identified as "Uncle Sam" who is covered by an American flag.
