RE: “Jessie Sponberg Will Win the Mayor’s Race Easily—If It’s Decided by Good Hip-Hop Tracks” [Blogtown, April 21]. “One candidate in Portland’s mayoral race has by far the freshest theme song,” Dirk VanderHart wrote, posting Sponberg’s music video. “It’s good, replete with many of the topics Sponberg has raised, well produced, and lyrically solid, with contributions from Al-One the Remedy, MY-G, Prologic, and Brown Caesar.”

Maybe the candidates should have a rap battle royale. How about under the Morrison Bridge this weekend?
