Old Music Video Shows Anti-Gun Mamdani Brandishing Pistol, Celebrating Violence

Zohran Mamdani is still the frontrunner to be the next mayor of New York. The fact that an avowed socialist is in that position still galls me and will until my dying day. The fact that he’s an anti-gunner is far less shocking. This is the Big Apple, after all. Anti-gun is as common as being pro-breathing there.

But Mamdani apparently has a deep, dark secret he likely hoped no one would be aware of.

The man who said we should ban all guns just a few years ago doesn’t have as much of a problem with guns as one might expect.

New York City mayoral candidate Zohran Mamdani (D.) has called for a ban on “all guns” as a remedy to the “scourge of gun violence” during his career as a politician. It’s a stark contrast from his brief time as a rapper under the name Young Cardamom, when he filmed a music video brandishing a firearm and glorifying violence.

The video for his song “Wabula Naawe,” set in the Luwero Triangle in 1981 during the days leading up to the Ugandan Bush War, opens with a spray of gunfire. It depicts armed militants shooting firearms from the back of a truck—to the words “let’s get together and settle this thing once and forever”—and portrays a man being shot in the head at point-blank range.

“I’ll finish you like food on a plate,” Mamdani says while waving a gun and wearing military fatigues. “You are about to run like a chicken.”

“Imma hit you with the fist, Imma hit you with the foot, gonna hit you so hard you’ll pray for death,” he continues.

Mamdani has taken a much more critical stance on firearms since entering politics.

“We need to ban all guns,” Mamdani wrote in a May 2022 post on X.

He has expressed similar sentiments during his mayoral campaign. After a gunman opened fire in Midtown Manhattan in July in a shooting that left four dead, including an off-duty police officer, Mamdani said he would like to see “a nationwide ban on assault rifles.” He argued that other states in addition to New York must outlaw those firearms.

“As mayor, I will lead calls to ensure that we pass the legislation necessary beyond New York, such that every New Yorker can rest assured that we need not prepare for the next iteration of this horrific mass shooting,” he vowed.

Whoops.

Did Mamdani really think this wouldn’t come to light? Here he is, brandishing a gun, celebrating violence in a rap video–and the fact that this guy had a rap career, or an attempted one, is even more hilarious–and he somehow thought it wouldn’t get turned up by someone?

Get real.

The truth is that people like Mamdani aren’t really that anti-gun. They’re anti-you having a gun. They always figure the rules won’t apply to them in some manner. They’ll be exempted, even if they’ve actually celebrated violence through their so-called art.

His call for banning all guns in 2022 didn’t acknowledge that he’d brandished one in a video, that he’d acted like killing someone was nothing in that same video, or anything else. It’s just a call to disarm people like you and me, and not just of a popular rifle or anything. He wants to see everything banned.

No, he wouldn’t be able to make that happen as mayor of New York, but he can do a whole lot to make life harder for people who live in the city who trust a gun to protect themselves. He’ll live in safety with an army of bodyguards, but he’ll make sure the average New Yorker is screwed in any way he can.

Just another anti-gun hypocrite, like oh-so-many others.
