Alicia Keys looks smoking on the cover of this month’s Blender Magazine.  I always thought that Alicia was a smart woman, but when I read this quote inside the article, I began to think she was loosing it.

We ask what other gangsta rappers she liked. And that’s when Keys drives a steamroller through the wall.

“‘Gangsta rap’ was a ploy to convince black people to kill each other,” she says, putting down the sandwich. “‘Gangsta rap’ didn’t exist.”

Come again? A ploy by whom?

She looks at us like it’s the dumbest question in the world. “The government.”

Are you kidding me Alicia?!  The government is made of a white old men – they can’t create rap!
