Chicago-based rapper Lupe Fiasco is no conservative by a long shot; but while the nation’s attention this week turns to Tampa, Fla., and New Orleans, he’s crying out for some executive attention to his city, where nine were shot and killed last weekend alone.
Followers both supported the rapper and ran interference for the president as well.

@LupeFiasco @BarackObama Honey Obama isn't a super hero. You expect him to come thru with a cape and get rid of the crime here? Come on..

@LupeFiasco Have you asked Chicago or Illinois politicians the same questions? What about the local police? What'd they say??
