Lin-Manuel Miranda: The Underlying Factor Connecting Hillary Clinton, Donald Trump and Biggie's Ten Crack Commandments

Here are the comparisons between Hamilton's "Ten Duel Commandments" spin-off and Biggie's "Ten Crack Commandments," and how it relates back to the Presidential candidates.

Lin-Manuel Miranda has utilized nearly every televised moment he’s accumulated to dump on Republican Presidential candidate, Donald Trump. His most recent anti-Trump moment occurred at a “Broadway meets Hollywood” benefit fundraiser in support of Hillary Clinton’s campaign this past Monday night (Oct. 17) in New York.

Miranda and fellow Hamilton cast mate, Renee Elise Goldsberry, banded together to re-spin their initial “Ten Duel Commandments” adaptation of the Notorious B.I.G.’s “Ten Crack Commandments”. The duo use each commandment to parley supportive bars for Clinton, prompting listeners to reach out to friends and family try to turn typically red states like Ohio blue and bring awareness to how close Clinton is to breaking a major glass ceiling.

Only the brilliant @Lin_Manuel could pull off "Tim Kaine in the membrane" (!!!) #BroadwayForHillary https://t.co/CHL1WhDVlW

But, we decided to take it a step further. After you finish checking out Miranda and Goldsberry’s performance above, flip through to see how we connected Trump to the original “Ten Crack Commandments” lyrics paired with the spin-off version performed Monday night.
