Jay-Z, Thom Yorke and Others Celebrate Obama Win With Songs
Barack Obama’s victory in the presidential election has inspired new songs by Jay-Z and a host of other artists.
Jay-Z and his producer, Kanye West, are streaming “We Made History” online ahead of the album that they’re working on, reports Spin.
“Where are you victory?” Jay-Z raps. “I need you desperately / Not just for the moment / To make history.”
Thom Yorke, the lead singer of Radiohead, remixed his 2006 song, “Harrowdown Hill” in honor of Obama. And Nas and Will.I.Am, who starred in the popular “Yes We Can” video, also have new Obama songs.
