Jay-Z has come a long way from being a poor ghetto kid growing up in the infamous Marcy Projects. Jay-Z now owns several lucrative businesses and is well know everywhere he goes. Jay-Z even held a $40,000 a plate fundraiser from President Barack Obama at his 40/40 night club in NYC which was the talk of the town for quite some time. Last night MTV News caught up with Jay-Z at his 40/40 nightclub during the launch of NBA 2K13 and asked him if he would ever consider running for office, to which he replied:
“To be honest with you I think a lot of people are serving their own agendas, so they just argue back and forth and they think about their next term,” he said. “And it’s more about themselves than about the people. They’re servicing the people, but we rarely get anything done because they’re going back and forth with whatever they’re doing, so I’m not really into politics.”
