After announcing ‘How Much A Dollar Cost‘ as his favourite track of 2015, President Barack Obama invited Kendrick Lamar to The White House. Although it seemed to be for pleasure, it’s reported that Obama wanted to talk to Kendrick about a new mentoring programme and they discussed “topics concerning the inner cities, the problem, the solutions, and furthermore embracing the youth.”
According to Obama’s senior advisor Valerie Jarrett, Obama said to Kendrick “Can you believe we’re both sitting in The Oval Office?” to help ease his nerves – when you consider the nation’s history, it’s one hell of an achievement for both of them.
