This is cool: Rap against anti-Semitism
Rapper Jay-Z is going to make an ad telling kids that anti-Semitism is not cool.
Cool.
Grammy-award winning hip-hop star Jay-Z, considered one of the world’s most important rappers, has decided to take part in the war on anti-Semitism. In the next few days he is expected to star in an TV commercial which will be broadcast on American television under the banner: “Anti-Semitism is not cool.”
The Foreign Ministry in Jerusalem received a report on the initiative from Aryeh Mekel, Israel’s consul-general in New York.
In the ad, rapper Jay-Z asks viewers not to join groups speaking against Jews because ‘anti-Semitism is not cool.’

And Will Smith visits Israel.
And Russell Simmons is best friends with Marc Schneier.
Rap for Jews. I guess.
