Video: Tupac-loving Tory’s freestyle election rap is pretty special

Ben Kenyon

Just when you thought politics couldn’t get any more ‘street’.

Then this went and happened.

Conservative councillor Zahid Shah, who is a massive fan of Tupac and Wu Tang Clan, thought he would lay down some rhymes to inspire the young ‘uns to vote.

The 47-year-old filmed himself around the streets of Wolverhampton, er, spitting some lyrics (is that what the kids say these days?)

Here’s a few lyrics from the Midlands’ very own Biggie Smalls:

 

“Times were great growing up in this zone / Which had a great multicultural tone.

“Today things have really changed / The area has become deranged.

“Young blood please don’t waste your vote / Jump on the Councillor Shah Conservative boat.”

And here’s us thinking Ed Miliband was the only one putting the ‘G’ in Government with this Skepta remix video.
