As if being the first hip-hop artist to ever be inducted into the Songwriting Hall of Fame wasn't incredible enough, Jay Z had an extra special night at the Songwriters Hall of Fame ceremony on Thursday when he got a touching personal message from Barack Obama. The 55-year-old former president took a quick break from traveling the world to honor the rap legend (and his friend) with a pre-recorded video. "I like to think Mr. Carter and I understand each other. Nobody who met us when we were younger men would have expected us to be where we are today," he said. "We both have wives who are significantly more popular than we are . . . Like all of you, I am a fan, and I've been listening to Jay since I was a young and hungry state senator." Naturally he ends the video on an inspiring note, saying, "I'm proud to help present this award to a true American original." We couldn't agree more.
