The political race just became even more competitive. Democratic candidate Waka Flocka Flame ignited an additional wave of support for his campaign with the announcement of a running mate—none other than Hannibal Buress. There’s been much to-do about the somewhat surprising battle for party nomination between Bernie Sanders and Hillary Clinton. Well, that narrative is about to change. The true victors have arrived.
Shouts to these guys for making what sounds like an Onion article a reality. Watch the comical video above, which finds Waka wishing his competition “good luck” and even includes a snippet from Drake commenting on Buress (the clip was originally taken at the Toronto artist’s infamous kickball event, at which he wore a “Charged Up” t-shirt).
Stay tuned for further developments, and register to vote if you’re eligible and have yet to do so. In the meantime, learn more about Buress’ longstanding relationship with hip-hop by reading our recent piece, “Rap God: Hannibal Buress Reviews His Rap Career.”
