Another Reason Newark (NJ) Mayor Corey Booker is AWESOME

Aside from being a very informed, grounded, energetic, devoted, and otherwise great politician Corey Booker evidently has a great level of patience for reckless Twittering.

I'm Not From Baltimore I Just Live Here

Here is yet another reason why whenever someone asks me if I'm from Baltimore I say "No, I just live here." That's not a shot at Baltimore though. I've been here long enough to come to like quite a bit of things the city has to offer. It's just to say that although I live here, I don't identify nor do I represent many of the stereotypes associated with the city. For an example of someone who does, check out the video below:


Some of the lyrics are completely hilarious, so much so that I want to transcribe them. But there's no way I'm taking the time to transcribe this ridiculous attempt at rapping. I wish I could say that I think this is a parody but I really think this guy is serious. The fake booty shake he did toward the end of the video forced me to stop watching, I'm not gonna lie, lol. Let me know what happened after that, lol.

Bonus Coverage: Newark Parody

This one is obviously a parody but equally as bad and hilarious.
