Faux News Alert - Hype Level: Elevated

The world leader of journalistic impartiality Fox News Channel has a superb history of supporting hip-hop music.

Bill O'Reily has conducted level headed interviews with hip-hop artists, such as this gem with Camron and Damon Dash

This support has lead to O'Reily receiving shout outs from both Ludacris and Jay-Z.

Ok, that's all clearly rubbish. So imagine the shock of been introduced to a new rapper via an interview on the Hard Right Vs Soft Right debate show Hannity and Colmes. With Chuck Norris standing in for Hannity. (It takes a classy journalist to fill in for Hannity)

Timz is an Iraqi American rapper and while the interview with Chuck Norris is just plain weird, the lead single of his debut album is genuinely interesting. It's actually a surprise it's taken so long for an Iraqi rapper to emerge.

Timz 'Iraq'
