"Honestly, I love the art of Hip-Hop. I don’t always love the message of Hip-Hop. Hip-Hop is not just a mirror of what is. It should be a mirror of what can be. A lot of people say, ‘I want to be real. I want to be down. Then we’re just trapped in 'What is.'

Imagine something different. Imagine communities that aren’t torn up by violence. Imagine that we’re respecting our women. Imagine communities where knowledge and reading and academic excellence are valued, communities where fathers are doing right by their kids. Art can’t just be a rearview mirror. It should have a headlight on there pointing to where we need to go." - Barack Obama

"I think people just wanna take their excitement and turn it into something tangible and just something that can actually contribute into getting this guy into office." - Jin

"I'm in full support of that brother. He has a great mind and I think he's for the people, man. I think we need that. We need someone that's thinking forward and thinking peaceful and thinking about people of all walks of life — not just the rich." - Common

"His youth, his being black, the way that he speaks, the way that he lays out his point of view. It's someone who looks more like you. I don't mean black, but I mean the young thing. And his name is Barack Obama. This country is becoming more and more multicultural." - Talib Kweli

"It was Obama's speech in New Hampshire. I was watching it. It inspired me. It made me reflect on myself and the freedoms I had, going to school where I went to school, and the people who came before Obama like Martin Luther King and presidents like Abraham Lincoln." - Will.i.am

"We are on the brink of moving past our stigmas and preconceived thoughts to make a substantive decision for change. The change is Barack Obama." - Q-Tip

"I think he's what the future of America is going to be. Barack represents what I feel is the future of the optimum survival of America." - Will Smith

"He's a great speaker. He knows how to motivate a crowd. I believe we need somebody strong like that, especially coming off of somebody who's not so great of a speaker. You've got to be able to motivate your country. I believe he can do that." - Nick Cannon

"Obama won the Iowa caucus by inspiring more young people and women to vote than any previous presidential candidate. How could it not be impressive to see the new Bobby Kennedy of our day in the White House?" - Rhymefest

''We talked about empowering the youth. [Meeting Obama] was like meeting with a relative." - Ludacris

"I hope [America] is smart enough to pick the best person. Right now, it looks like nobody is better than Obama." - Ice Cube

"Join the movement to make America our's and create a brighter future for America's youth. Barack needs you. I need you. We need you. I, Usher, am voting for Barack Obama." - Usher

"I'm proud to support Senator Obama for President. I respect his integrity and trust his judgment. I agree with his stances on the major issues, particularly his principled stand to oppose the administration's ill-advised decision to invade Iraq, even when this was not a popular position. I believe he will be the man to restore our pride in this country. He is the kind of leader we need in these trying times." - John Legend

I was talking to an old mentor in college, and he was all excited about Obama. His an older black guy, and I told him, wait a minute, when I was talking about him being president a few years ago you were skeptical, and I told you he was exactly what we need as a former community organizer and civil rights lawyer. He said that's all changed, Obama has proven he can win and has built a base that should win in November. I've been pushing this guy to everyone I've known for years.
