My President Is Black (D.C.-Mix)
Jay · All Black Everything [2003]
Corporation Thuggin' What Up?
It's A New Day!
D.C.-Mix
Yeah
[Chorus 2x]
My President Is Black, My Maybach, Too
And I'll Be God Damned If My Diamonds Ain't Blue
My Money's Dark Green And My Porsche Is Light Grey
(Hey) I'm Headed To D.C, Anybody Feel Me?
[Verse]
My President Is Black
In Fact,
He's Half-White
So Even In A Racist Mind, He's Half-Right
So If You Got A Racist Mind, You Be Alright*
My President Is Black, But His +House+ Is All +White+
Rosa Parks Sat So Martin Luther Could Walk
Martin Luther Walked So Barack Obama Could Run
Barack Obama Ran So All The Children Could Fly
So I'ma Spread My Wings, You Can Meet Me In The Sky
I Already Got My Own Clothes, Already Got My Own Shoes
I Was Hot
Before Barack
Imagine What I'm Gon' Do
Hello Miss America
Hey Pretty Lady,
Red, White, And Blue Flag, Wave For Me, Baby
Never Thought I'd Say This Shit
Baby, I'm Good
You Can Keep Your +Puss+
I Don't Want No More +Bush+ (Shit)
No More War, No More Iraq
No More White Lies, The President Is Black!
[Chorus 2x]
My President Is Black, My Maybach, Too
And I'll Be God Damned If My Diamonds Ain't Blue
My Money's Dark Green And My Porsche Is Light Grey
(Hey) I'm Headed To D.C, Anybody Feel Me?
*Disclaimer: This statement made by Jay-Z is addressed
all racists (yes, the KKK is still around) who think
that The President of the United States should be White.
Jay-Z's argument states that even though racists feel
that Barack is incompetent to run the Nation,
Barack's heritage comes from both White and Black races.
Therefore, to those who are racist,
Jay-Z states that due to The President's mixed ethnicity,
Barack's decisions should not be looked upon in total
disdain in the eyes of a racist.
My President Is Black (D.C.-Mix)
Jay's "My President Is Black (D.C.-Mix)" stands as a defining track from his 2003 album *All Black Everything*, blending hip-hop with a distinct electro-funk rhythm. The song explores themes of racial identity and political representation through a lens of personal reflection and social commentary. Produced with a polished, danceable beat characteristic of early 2000s R&B-infused hip-hop, the recording captures the era's shift toward more melodic and emotive storytelling. As a key component of Jay's discography, the track exemplifies his ability to merge lyrical depth with an infectious groove, influencing subsequent artists who sought to address systemic issues while maintaining mainstream appeal. The D.C.-Mix variant specifically highlights regional influences, adding texture to the original composition without altering its core message.
