Over the past four years, Jay-Z has proven how much deeper his power goes than rap, as he helped lure many first-time voters to Barack Obama.

Jay-Z has rapped about being on a first-name basis with both Barack and Michelle Obama numerous times. In return, President Obama has admitted he is a big fan of the music Jay-Z makes. With a mutual admiration, Jay-Z and President Obama have become good friends outside of business.
