DMX talks politics

I don't know about your sense of humor, but mine is pretty tickled by this interview with rapper DMX by XXLmag. His indifference to everything the interviewer is asking him is pretty exceptional. The best comes at about the middle, when DMX is asked whether he's following the presidential race:

XXLmag: Are you following the presidential race?
DMX: Not at all.

You're not? You know there's a Black guy running, Barack Obama and then there's Hillary Clinton.
His name is Barack?!

Barack Obama, yeah.
Barack?!

Barack.
What the fuck is a Barack?! Barack Obama. Where he from, Africa?

Yeah, his dad is from Kenya.
Barack Obama?

Yeah.
What the fuck?! That ain't no fuckin' name, yo. That ain't that nigga's name. You can't be serious. Barack Obama. Get the fuck outta here.

It gets even better, I swear. I don't know what's funnier: the interviewer's lack of knowing how to discuss politics beyond a superficial level, or his unease at probing DMX for actual answers to his questions...or DMX just blatantly not giving a fuck about anything. This whole thing kind of seems too out there to be for real. But who cares, it's on the intarnetsource and it's funny.
