Just last month, Jay-Z remarked that he hadn’t been to the White House yet – a problem he quickly remedied on Wednesday.
The hip-hop icon joined wife Beyonce in an impromptu trip to the White House, where they were photographed smiling at the head of a boardroom table.
In February, Jay-Z told the BBC’s Jonathan Ross he’d be meaning to make a visit.
“I’ve been invited to the White House a couple of times,” he said at the time. “Hopefully we’ll keep him in for eight years, so I’ll have time to get there.”
In Jay’s entourage during his visit to the White House was fellow musician Trey Songz, who Tweeted about his Presidential moment.
“Had the honor of meeting Barack Obama today – Surreal – GOD bless The President and his family,” he Tweeted.
