Barack Obama handed the former First Lady a serious drubbing, doubling up on Hillary, and carrying most of the key demographics in South Carolina.
If you're a hip-hop fan, this song has got to be in your top-ten. If you're not a fan of the art, this song might just bring you around.

So now, the housing market is in the tank, mortgages, even for people with good credit, are almost impossible to come by, and the world seems to be moving to recession. If it didn't threaten regular people's livelihoods, and (very meager) fortunes, the whole thing would be comedic.
"Cruel Summer" was a mainstay on the pop radio stations of the day, and a popular song heard at the middle-school and junior-high dances of the day.
