The most recent Hip Hop visitors to the White House were Fabolous and Trae Tha Truth.
The two rappers visited President Barack Obama’s residence this week with DJ D-Nice for an exclusive luncheon with DJ QuickSilva as well.
Fabolous and Trae Tha Truth each posed at Obama’s press-conference podium before enjoying a hearty meal that consisted of steak, baked potato and broccoli.
The Houston rap vet credits lawyer John Burns and community activist John Hartsfield for bringing the group together and he expresses a deep sense of gratitude at being in the President’s home.
“Feels Good To See People Support & Genuinely Happy For You , But In Reality The Reverse Side Of That Is You Can Feel & Spot Those Who Ain’t Happy & Bitter…” he writes for the caption of one of his Instagram posts. “Always Been 1000% For Anyone Or Anything I Stood With….. Point Being Made Is Even Tho U Don’t Get Tha Same In Return… Keep It Movin & Know God Got It..???? …. #StillCantBelieveIWasCoolin In Tha #WhiteHouse”
President Obama welcomed Chance The Rapper and Frank Ocean to his final State Dinner last month. The Commander in Chief also threw an epic party to celebrate all things Hip Hop including a playlist made up of Mobb Deep, Common and De La Soul cuts.
Other rappers to visit the White House during Obama’s time in office include Kendrick Lamar and Rick Ross, whose ankle monitor went off during a visit this spring.
Check out photos from Fabolous and Trae Tha Truth’s visit to the White House below.
so this is what Obama did in office. Bring rappers to the white house for no reason.
Yep lol hit it right on the head, I like fab and trae, but what good is it to bring them to the white house. Obama was a political pawn, they used him to attract minorities. The government has always been against us, they have always manipulate us. Most of the times they present us with options that look attractive and force us to one side because the other side is so extreme.
People tour the white all the time though, nothing special here. They could’ve gave them a better room and better chairs lol.
So, was Obama too cool to take photos with/meet Fabolous and Trae tha Truth?
Rubbish really.unless real rappers I mean obama is TOO FAKE to invite in the white hse the pioneers of the game like Dre or Cube.so this wasnt a ‘hip hop invasion’ but rather 2 niggaz in the white hse eat in shit.dx staff is bunch of monkiz.
