It was reported earlier today that Kendrick Lamar recently paid a visit to the White House for a meeting with President Barack Obama in the Oval Office. Divulged by senior adviser Valerie Jarrett during this week’s episode of BuzzFeed’s Another Round, particular details surrounding their encounter remained scarce, leaving minds to wonder what exactly was discussed.
Picking up where he left off in his “Hard Work” short clip last month, the TDE rapper took the opportunity in a new vlog titled “Pay It Forward” this evening to provide a bit more clarity on the matter, even revealing photos of his honorary consultation in the process.
“I sat down with President Barack Obama, and shared the same views – topics concerning the inner cities, the problem, the solutions, and furthermore, embracing the youth – both being aware that mentoring saves lives,” Kendrick explained, encouraging others who are capable of becoming a positive presence for today’s younger generation, to ultimately step up to the plate.
