Pathetic Pandering: Mayor Sylvester Turner “Freestyle” Rap For "713 Day"

He must have honed his rapping skills at Harvard Law.

Anyway, it’s safe to say that Mayor Turner is a far better rapper than mayor. And he’s an atrocious rapper.

In case you are not hip, yesterday was 713 in Houston.

Why is it a big deal?

The Mayor’s office says “in this city, 713 was the initial ZIP Code, followed by 281 and 832, but it all started with 713 which is today.” So the Mayor celebrated at Houstonopoly by dancing and rapping.

He was so proud of his rapping he tweeted video, writing “When @979TheBox’s @JmacGlobalchallenged me to lay it down, of course I had to show him how we represent on the Northside. We had to chill to be real on this #713Day. #Htown”.

Is that Harvard speak for how cool you are?
