It just runs down all the things we already see on the news every day with no slant on it.
Maybe if you can find a way to make the rap personal, spice up the music, and turn down the vocal a bit, you might have something. You know what ear candy is? Put some unique musical bits in there. Break up the rapping into smaller bites. Make the track memorable.
Good luck.
