See President Obama Help 'Hamilton' Star Lin-Manuel Miranda With White House Freestyle

The cast of Broadway musical Hamilton visited the White House on Monday, March 14 to perform. President Barack Obama gave opening remarks before the cast performed a few songs, that was then followed by workshops for high school students within the Washington D.C. area. 

Sometime during the day, POTUS and Hamilton creator Lin-Manuel Miranda found time to record a little White House freestyle rap in the Rose Garden. Obama prompted Miranda with cue cards that Miranda then had to freestyle from. “He’s throwin’ up some words,” Miranda begins, “I’m gonna say some freestylin’ that you’ve never heard.”

Watch the freestyle above, then check out the Hamilton cast performing two of the show's first three songs, "Alexander Hamilton" and "My Shot," at the 53:50 mark below:
