President Barack Obama revealed that he prefers the
“Alright” rapper over Drizzy in YouTube’s Q&A chat on Friday.
Obama weighed in on the hip-hop titans after YouTube vlogger
Adande Thorne asked him which one would triumph in a rap battle.
"Gotta go with Kendrick," Obama responded
immediately.
"I
think Drake is an outstanding entertainer,” he added. “But Kendrick, his
lyrics, his last album (“To Pimp a Butterfly”) was outstanding. Best album, I
think, of last year."
Obama’s
opinion shouldn’t come as too much of a surprise, since he named“How Much a Dollar
Cost” as his favorite song of 2015.
Lamar also recently
had the chance to meet the president at the White House, and shared a photo
from his visit on Instagram earlier this week. The pair
met in the Oval Office to discuss the mentoring program Pay It Forward.
Obama also gave his two cents on another
pop culture hot topic when Thorne asked him about “Star Wars.”
The president said that if he had the
chance to be any character from the sci-fi franchise, he would be Han Solo
because “he’s a little bit of a rebel.”
