"Da Vek" 💀

More from Politico:

During his time as an undergrad at Harvard, Ramaswamy had a side-hustle as a libertarian-minded rap artist who went by the stage name "Da Vek." The gig was an early sign of the extroverted, self-assured personality that has propelled him far further in the primary than virtually anyone expected.

It makes him only the second known presidential candidate in a Republican party to have ever willingly embraced Eminem (after Marco Rubio).

In this story about Vivek's rap prowess (can't believe I just wrote that), Politico reports Eminem spoke to him as the son of Indian immigrants living in Cincinnati.

"I saw myself, honestly, making it big through American capitalism, and that's why the Eminem story spoke to me," Ramaswamy, now 37 years old, said in an interview. A friend, who watched him rap at some point in his twenties, provided footage of it.

I mean, I guess the guy is multitalented? If you can cover Eminem while holding your own against the partisan hacks at PBS, maybe that makes you qualified for the presidency?

You never know: It's a long shot, but that guy could be the 2024 nominee.

"I follow my passions," [Vivek] said, "they're not all in politics."

To quote Elon Musk, the most entertaining outcome is the most likely!
