Barack Obama: 'I like rap, but I cannot rap'

Barack Obama has admitted that his skills don't extend to rap.

The US President is a well-known fan of the genre and has professed his admiration for the likes of Jay Z and Kanye West in the past.

However, he told college-bound students at his Beating the Odds Summit in the White House this week that he has no aptitude for spitting rhymes.

Before passing the microphone to rapper Wale, who was performing at the event, Obama said:

"I've got to give the mic back, so the main attraction can come back out here.

"My rapping skills are terrible. That's one thing I can't do, is rap. I like rap, but I cannot rap. Although I have enough of a rap I got Michelle to marry me."
