Barry's First Duet With Obama Girl Rocks
Going Like Sixty — January 19, 2009 — Pop Culture
If you only watch one video (aside from Trend Hunter TV) today, make it this one. The Obama Girl team is back, stronger than ever. The opening sequence is perfect, making it appear that Obama Girl (Amber Lee Ettinger) and Barry are sitting across from each other negotiating the terms of the duet. Snippets from Barack Obama's speeches have been edited to Kanye West/T-Pain Auto-Tune perfection.
The song was written and mixed by Michael Gregory, edited by Michael Stevens and performed by Leah Kauffman and Barack Obama.
