This was a collaboration between subMedia.tv and Denver based MC, SOLE (http://www.soleone.org/). The beats were provided by the one and only DJ Pain 1 (http://www.djpain1.info/). Obama was played by Brer Rabbit of Flobots (flobots.org)
Alas (https://soundcloud.com/alasmusika) was kind enough to take a break from her land defense work of stopping the Dakota Access Pipeline, to give us a few dope rhymes. You can support this struggle by donating here.
Pat Boyle shot the video and Yasamin Holland did the make up and styling.
Extra special thanks to Hugo and Giordano from Juice Rap News for providing the inspiration on this one.
