AceShowbiz - In a surprising move, veteran comedian Roseanne Barr ventured into the rap scene, releasing a pro-Donald Trump song titled "Daddy's Home." Teaming up with Canadian rapper Tom MacDonald, Barr showed off her rapping skills while name-dropping hip-hop icon Eminem.
Roseanne Barr, adorned in blonde box braids, gold chains, and sunglasses, kicks off the track with the provocative lines, "They try to cancel me and say I'm a racist. I got a mean hook, they can't get me with that jam. Trying to take away my right to go and say this. Listen up, cuz this Granny's going bad."
She went on to taunt Democrats, referring to the Republican's win at the Presidential election, "We won, you mad, done, too bad … you cry, we laugh," serves as a defiant endorsement of Trump's contentious political journey.
The music video, featuring a procession of vehicles waving Trump flags, underscores the celebratory vibe intended by Barr and MacDonald. On social media, MacDonald promoted the track, inviting fans to "Celebrate the inauguration with us!"
His enthusiasm is echoed by Roseanne, who commented on an Instagram post with a video of herself flipping off the camera, "My twerking is the best!" followed by a laughing emoji.
The timing of the release is no coincidence; the track was dropped just ahead of President-elect Trump's inauguration, further stoking the flames of an already charged political climate. MacDonald went as far as to declare, "This is going down in pop culture history."
The song also raises eyebrows with a jab at Eminem, who had previously released an anti-Trump track during Trump's first term in 2017. This not-so-subtle call-out adds a layer of celebrity feud to the mix, ensuring that "Daddy's Home" will dominate discussions not just in political circles, but also in the realm of pop culture.
While Barr's transition into rap may seem unconventional, it highlights the ever-blurring lines between politics, entertainment, and media. For young people navigating these intersections, "Daddy's Home" serves as a fascinating case study in how celebrities leverage their platforms for political expression.
