Obama shared his appreciation for both Kendrick and Janelle for their efforts on and off the stage. He then thanked the “incredible men and women in uniform and their families who look out for us every single day.”

Kendrick was also celebrating the 5-year anniversary of ‘Section.80′ and showed his support for his followers. “I got a few people who’ve been rocking with me for awhile,” he expressed. “I love y’all…I really appreciate y’all.”

For the finale Obama had both Kendrick and Justine sing Happy Birthday for his eldest daughter, Malia, who turned 18-years-old.

According to The Guardian, Obama told People in an upcoming interview that Yeezy stays in his iPod. We’re not quite sure which tracks, but the Chicago native’s songs do resonate with the President. When asked who he would rather spend time with, the Duck Dynasty crew or Kimye, he picked neither but did offer these words.

“The Duck Dynasty family seems like a pretty fun bunch, so I can see how that would be pretty fun,” he said during the interview according to Time, before adding: “Kanye’s music is outstanding, though. I’ve got a lot of his stuff on my iPad. If it was a concert, then I might not mind listening to him.”

President Obama set the record straight on the TODAY show, when asked if he had given Jay-Z and Beyonce clearance on their trip to Cuba.

“I wasn’t familiar that they were taking the trip. My understanding is, I think they went through a group that organizes these educational trips down to Cuba. This is not something the White House was involved with. We’ve got better things to do.”
