Barack Obama hasn't won the presidency yet, but he's already having an impact on music in the Caribbean.
Now one artist is about to begin a "Reggae for Obama World Tour," according to CNN. In a catchy music video called "Barack Obama" by Cocoa Tea, the artist sings "it's not about class" and touts the black and white support for the Democratic presidential candidate.
"People really are crying out. They need to see a change in Washington," the artist told CNN. Meanwhile, a calypso artist named Mighty Sparrow sings about the Iraq War on America's reputation and promotes Obama as the man to fix the problem. "The respect of the world that we now lack. If you want it back, then vote Barack," he sings.
