Comment by Sabatta on November 11, 2012 at 3:26pm: Rush Limbaurgh Raps Jay-z, Donald Trump Wigs out! YINKA AND THE ID RADIO SHOW 2012 US ELECTION SPECIAL!

Nov 7 it was officially all over (even if the Florida count was yet to come in)

Obama got in again!

Or as LL Cool J put it on Twitter:
'Don't call it a comeback he's been here 4 years!'

Some people were very happy, some people were actually more relieved and some actually went nuts (how you holding up Donald?)

Here the tale of the ticker tape as told by your friend from the other side of the Atlantic - Yinka (Sabatta) on his weekly www.Resonancefm.com Radio Show.

Featuring music from Nas, Jay-Z, Young Jezzy, Ice Cube, Parliament/Funkadelic, David Bowie and LL Cool J.
Oh - and Rush Limbaurgh tries his hand at rapping!

Comment by bEeefF on February 26, 2010 at 3:55am: Good clip up there. Reminds of BBC, "Century of the Self" in many ways. Foolish not to recognize history.

Comment by EclecticEssence on February 24, 2010 at 1:52am: We all need to know where we came from in order to move forward...
