President Obama Says He Prefers Jay-Z To Kanye West

Barack Obama made his choice from The Throne choosing Jay Z over Kanye West.

It would be no surprise as during his 2008 presidential campaign he was supported by many of the hip hop community, and has been linked with Jay Z for a long time. A few days ago, Beyonce also posted on her newly relaunched website a letter to Barack’s wife Michelle, saying how inspirational she was.

An interviewer from theatlantic.com asked the President who he prefered Jay Z or Kanye

“Jay-Z,” replied the President, before adding, “Although I like Kanye. He’s a Chicago guy. Smart. He’s very talented.”

“Even though you called him a jackass?” asked the interviewer, citing a 2009 incident in which the President was caught on camera having some harsh words for Kanye after he took the spotlight from Taylor Swift at the MTV Video Music Awards.

“He is a jackass,” retorted Obama, who added with a wink, “But he’s talented.”
