These are challenging times indeed for Barack Obama, but LL Cool J's got the answers, reports the Daily Mirror. The 41-year-old rapper offers some advice in an open letter cautioning the leader of the free world against disappointing those inspired by his message of hope: “You have shifted the cultural paradigm of America,” he wrote. “But now you have to live up to the ideal that fostered the shift and ensure that the paradigm doesn't shift back. You must deliver."
