9ija Stand Up:...Wale Became The First Rapper To Open A State Of The Union Address!!!

History was made last night!.......Nigerian/American rapper, Wale becomes the first ever rapper to open a State of The Union Address...Yep!  Wale performed at the White House, during a live stream that was introduced by Vice President Joe Biden right before President Obama's final state of the union address. 
When he wasn't performing, Wale found time to hang with Biden, and snap a selfie with Dr. Jill Biden, the Second Lady. This isn't the first time he's visited the White House: Last summer, he performed and spoke as part of First Lady Michelle Obama's Beating the Odds Summit. The National also have a long history with Obama.

See more after the jump!!!
