President Obama only has a little bit of time left to enjoy the perks of the Oval Office, and it looks like he’s making the most of these next few months. He’s going on Full Frontal this week, he got to enjoy an elaborate Mario Batali feast, and he held a music festival with Leonardo DiCaprio and the Stranger Things kids. Now, there are two more fun things he got to do because he’s about to lose his job and everybody feels bad for him and/or deeply respects him and thinks he’s a cool dude.
For starters, President Obama recently got a chance to talk with Sway for Sway In The Morning and discuss the current state of rap music (via Consequence Of Sound). Obama named some of the rappers he’s a fan of these days, highlighting Kendrick Lamar and Chance The Rapper as doing “amazing work” and noting that “the girls love Drake.” However, as Obama acknowledges, he’s kind of biased toward Chance because he’s known him since he was a little kid due to his dad being Obama’s state director when he was a senator. They also talked about the importance of voting, but that’s not nearly as cool. (We’re just kidding, voting is actually super cool.)
