Bun B has always taken a healthy interest in politics, helping to inform the hip-hop community about what’s going on. Teaming up with VICE, the Trill OG has taken to the Trump campaign trail to shed a light on the racism what’s going on from that side of things. The result? Exactly what you think it would be…

“As Trump takes the stage, complimenting the sportsmen who introduced him as ‘very rich and very nice,’ I get it,” Bun reported. “This isn’t about politics. This is about a famous person from television coming to town.” He continues after the jump.

“This election isn’t really about the issues at hand—it’s a popularity contest, made for reality TV. And this dude is the Honey Boo Boo of this political pageant.

We play it cool, but at this point, I’ve endured more dirty looks and side-eye than I can handle. Every time I talk into the camera people take pictures and record from the sidelines, waiting to tattle on me to Trump staffers. The crowd is no longer on its best behavior. The unspoken message from the silent majority is crystal clear: We are not welcome here. That’s cool. I was on the way up out this bitch anyway. You ain’t gotta love me. My momma do. Peace.”
