Lil Wayne has been referenced in public speeches by President
Barack Obama on at least two occasions, in mixed contexts. Speaking to a largely
African-American audience during a
general election campaign town hall speech in
Georgia, then-
U.S. Senator Obama exhorted children to stay in school and achieve their dreams through education and perseverance instead of hoping for shortcuts to fame and riches, stating: "You are probably not that good a rapper. Maybe you are the next Lil Wayne, but probably not, in which case you need to stay in school."
After assuming the Presidency, Obama later echoed this theme of personal and familial responsibility—and the difficulty of achieving Lil Wayne's lyrical skills or success—during an address to a meeting commemorating the 100th anniversary of the NAACP, telling the audience:}}
Obama also mentioned listening to Lil Wayne on his iPod:
