De La Soul, M1 and Jay Electronica Talk Voting

Jay Electronica, M1 of dead prez, Maseo of De La Soul recently took time out to weigh in on getting over the stigma of voting.

With the 2008 election a little over a week away, Jay Electronica spoke on the distrust many have of the electoral process and Maseo expressed “hope” for the future, but it was M1 who took the boldest stance.

“If you ask me about what its gonna be, how important it is to choose wisely, I say choose independently,” M1, a Cynthia McKinney supporter says. “I say choose self determination. That’s not on Obama’s ballot, that’s not on McCain’s ballot. For us we need to make a stake for the future and a new identity.”
