Kanye West: "Mitt Romney don't pay no tax"

 

"I'm just trying to protect my stacks / Mitt Romney don't pay no tax."

- Kanye West "To The World"

 

Last night, Cruel Summer leaked in full and the interweb-savvy heard the eye-raising line above on the album's first track "To The World" by Kanye West & R. Kelly. 'Ye was referencing Romney's refusal to release a number of tax returns and his low tax rate.

 

With the election less than 2 months away, hip hop is definitely taking notice (see: Nicki Minaj on Romney and Obama's response) and that's only going to be more prevalant in these days and weeks ahead. I'm excited to see that politics is a topic in hip hop - to hear artist's perspective and start the conversation amongst the listeners.

 

What do you think of Kanye's line on Mitt Romney?
