President Obama continued his tradition of interactive discussions in a new live Q&A session earlier today from the East Room of the White House. This time with top YouTube creators Destin Sandlin, Ingrid Nilsen and Adande “Swoozie” Thorne.

They talked about a variety of issues that are on the minds of young people today and most were serious, but there were a few light-hearted moments. One of which happened to be when Adande asked him to weigh in on who he thought was a better lyricist in the current state of the rap game, Drake or Kendrick Lamar. The answer probably won’t surprise you, given the POTUS’ recent revelation that Kendrick’s “How Much a Dollar Cost” was his favorite song of 2015, but how close was it?
