It's well known now that US President Barack Obama is huge fan of rap - remember, he named Kendrick Lamar's How Much a Dollar Cost as his favorite track last year. So when presented with an opportunity to engage in some freestyle rap at the White House, POTUS wasn't one to back down.
The cast of popular Broadway show Hamilton was performing at the White House on March 14, when show creator Lin-Manuel Miranda, stepped out into the Rose Garden to perform a freestyle rap with Obama himself.
In a viral video, tweeted by the White House, President Obama can be seen holding up flash cards as Miranda rapped freestyle for him. His rap included words like "constitution," "Obamacare," "NASA," "immigrants," "POTUS" and "carbon footprint" among various others - all put together seamlessly in the rap.
"How good is that? You think that's going viral? That's going viral," said Obama once the rap was done.
"I did not see those words prior," added Miranda.
There's a reason this video has received over 18,000 retweets and 23,000 likes on Twitter. Take a look:
