Kanye West On Obama

'I still can't believe it'

US rapper and global superstar Kanye West has performed at one of Barack Obama's Inauguration Balls, and the musician took time to praise the politician.

Obama and rap music have had a strange and strained relationship. While admitting he was a fan of some rap, Obama was keen to cite social responsibility to musicians. Kanye West was invited to perform at an Inauguration Ball aimed at young people, which the President briefly attended.

Interviewed by MTV West said of Obama's victory "I still can't believe it. I feel like I'm in the future - first iPods, now this”.

Before performing at the Inauguration Ball the rapper said "lt's make some noise for our new president, Obama. It feels so good to be standing here."

Barack Obama is the first African-American President of the United States, and his victory was accompanied by much support from the entertainment industry.

Other performers at the Inaugural Youth Ball included Fall Out Boy, Detroit rapper Kid Rock and Santogold.
