Kanye West on Bush on MP3!

Boing Boing: Katrina: Kanye remixed, "George Bush Don't Like Black People"

Ryan pointed me to this excellent remix MP3 of Kanye West's new single "Gold Digger" modified with New Orleans disaster lyrics. It's clever and funny and quite professional for a satire track.

Sample lyrics:
Five days in this motherfucking attic
I can't use the cellphone I keep getting static
Dying 'cause they lying instead of telling us the truth (...)
Screwed 'cause they say they're coming back for us, too
but that was three days ago and I don't see no rescue(...)

Swam to the store, tryin' to look for food
Corner store's kinda flooded so I broke my way through
Got what I could but before I got through
News say the police shot a black man trying to loot
Check it out!
