Earlier on today, 130 College bound students were invited to The White House to participate the First Lady's life enrichment program. The program endeavors to encourage school students to aim and go beyond high school. The goals and objectives are for the United States of America to have the highest number of college graduates by the year 2020.

Wale: "I am beyond honored and grateful to be involved in The First Lady's Reach Higher Initiative and to have the opportunity to sit down with her, as well as to perform for the kids of D.C. I believe that the youth are the first step in creating a better country, so to be involved in a program that aims to enrich their lives is truly the greatest reward."

Terence J: "Having grown up in Washington D.C., being invited to The White House by the First Lady is a dream come true. Thank you to Mrs. Obama and her entire staff for this opportunity....in addition to working with The White House on the My Brothers Keepers program, which also helps our youth stay on track, the summit...." has enabled ...."me to be part of a program that aims to enrich the lives of students."

    America's Finest Role Models

    President Barack Obama Invites Rapper Wale To The White House - July 2015

    First Lady Michelle Obama Teams Up With Rapper "Wale" For a White House Event - July 2015

    How can I not admire and respect Mr. and Mrs. Obama when they rub elbows and take snapshots with a popular American rap artist who characterizes the maternal half of our population as *itches?

    I especially like this Wale rap performance titled “Girls on Drugs.” Though after reading his lyrics I am confused why he did not title this rap, *itches on Drugs?”

    I'll tell ya, these lyrics remind me of the songs written and composed by my Motown music friends from the 60s.

    Olubowale "Wale" Victor Akintimehin's love and respect for women, our moms, sisters, grandmas, daughters and aunts, is genuinely heartwarming, bringing tears to my eyes.

    During his time as President of the United States of America, what has Mr. Obama and his wife done to end the National Epidemic of Child Abuse & Neglect that for decades has emotionally harmed and deprived countless American children of African descent from experiencing a safe, fairly happy American kid childhood?
