FLOTUS Michelle Obama has proven why she cares about the youth once again. In a hilarious video recorded on the White House front lawn, Obama and Saturday Night Live's Jay Pharoah rap over a beat to stress the importance of getting a college education after after high school, reported by The Root.

The video is produced by College Humor, and touches key points about the benefits of attending college, with added humor to gain the viewer's attention, the publication reports.

Obama can be seen spitting, "South Side Chicago, we all know, we had to do overtime every night to make it to tomorrow, and everyone could really make their dream true, hey kid listenin' in Michigan, that could be you!"

Perhaps now that Obama released this video, Kanye West realizes he will not be the first rapping African American president?

Billboard reports, "According to a statement from the Office of the First Lady, the music video collaboration aims to bring awareness to Mrs. Obama's Better Make Room campaign, which launched as part of her Reach Higher campaign to celebrate students' stories."

We thought we #BetterMakeRoom on the South Lawn to support students headed to college! A video posted by First Lady Michelle Obama (@michelleobama) on Oct 30, 2015 at 1:02pm PDT

Can we expect more music from the First Lady? Probably not, but this was most certainly an effective way to get the youth interested in the importance of striving for greatness.

Well, it is no secret that the First Couple are die-hard fans of Hip Hop. They revealed to People magazine that their favorite tracks of 2015 were Kendrick Lamar's "How Much a Dollar Cost" and Mark Ronson's "Uptown Funk" featuring the talented crooner Bruno Mars.

Although FLOTUS can be seen as a cool and down to Earth parent from the outside looking in, She still has two beautiful daughters that might think their mom embarrassed them to the entire world.

No worries, Sasha and Malia, your mom is still the coolest First Lady to many.
