"Hip Hope" Video? Hella cool pro-Obama video from Will.i.am (Black Eyed Peas)

You know, just when I thought we were all going to drown in a sea of crappy political ads, yawn-inducing stump speeches, and mind numbingly boring campaigns... someone comes along and does something that's nothing short of hella creative:



From what I understand, Will.i.am from the Black Eyed Peas was behind this "Hip Hope" video in support of Obama. The song is great, which is of course not surprising, given that the Black Eyed Peas rock (and hey, what red-blooded male doesn't love Fergie.).

But check out the production value here. What a cool juxtaposition of the artists and Obama. It's not just another campaign song, it's just... well, hard to explain, but simply hella cool. Check it out yourself:

And yes, I hate the fact that I used "hella" so often in this post, and I'll try to hold off on that again.
