In past Tweets, Q-Tip [click to read] has referred to Mayor Bloomberg as being “way out of touch” with the residents of New York City.
“NYC don’t let Bloomberg turn the city into the office for rich folk and kick out the middle class/poor folks,” Q-Tip told New Yorker’s a few days ago in a Tweet.
Although Q-Tip may not necessarily agree with the majority of Bloomberg’s policies he did reveal that he does not “hate” the mayor, but simply disagrees “with the way he is dealing with the city that I love.”
