             Barack Obama has won what could be an influential
██▓ ░ endorsement among reggae fans: Jamaican singer
██▓ ░ Cocoa Tea, who's backing the Illinois senator in a
██▓ ░ new tune.
██▓ ░
██▓ ░ "This is not about class nor color, race nor
██▓ ░ creed,'' the veteran dancehall crooner sings in a
██▓ ░ version posted on the video Web site Dailymotion.
██▓ ░ ''It's about the changes, what the Americans
██▓ ░ need.'' The song goes on to call Obama a
██▓ ░ ''trendsetter'' and urge Americans ''to unite as
██▓ ░ one'' behind him.
██▓ ░
██▓ ░ Cocoa Tea, whose real name is Calvin Scott, said
██▓ ░ Sunday that the tribute song ''Barack Obama'' will
██▓ ░ be released this week by New York's VP Records.
██▓ ░ ''The young people who are supporting him want
██▓ ░ change _ and that's what he represents,'' said the
██▓ ░ singer, whose laid-back lyrical style made him a
██▓ ░ local star in the 1980s.
██▓ ░
██▓ ░ He becomes the second major Caribbean musician to
██▓ ░ endorse Obama in song, joining Trinidadian calypso
██▓ ░ star Mighty Sparrow who recently recorded a track
██▓ ░ titled ''Barack the Magnificent.'
