Rappers love Donald Trump.
Despite his many controversial stances in his presidential campaign platform, his name is synonymous with extreme wealth in the hip-hop world. Since the 1980s, rappers have mentioned Trump in their lyrics — in some cases have named entire songs after him.
Many rappers have praised his wealth, comparing their finances and fiscal aspirations to that of the multibillion dollar business mogul.
“I buy cars with straight cash, have meetings with Donald Trump,” said rapper Ludacris in his 2003 song, “Hip Hop Quotables.”
