Alvin Greene Was Not Behind Subtly Deprecating Alvin Greene Rap

A sometimes funny (“Greene’s a new face in politics/And he don’t show porno to college chicks”), sometimes random (clips of LeBron playing basketball?) rap cheekily extolling the merits of Alvin Greene’s Senate candidacy is not an official campaign production, according to Greene. “I don’t know who made it,” he tells CNN, adding, “It sounds good. Make sure everybody hears it.” The person who did make it is San Francisco hip-hop producer Jay Friedman, who can’t believe anyone — like, say, the New York Times — actually reported that this was an official video created by Greene himself.

Well, yes, but also, whenever Alvin Greene is involved.
