London: JAY-Z has been rapped by the White House after he claimed that Barack Obama has been doing him personal favors.
Earlier this month, the 43-year-old rapper and wife Beyonce got into trouble for traveling to Cuba which is technically forbidden for US citizens, the Sun reported.
In retaliation he released a song, this week, called `Open Letter` making exaggerated boasts.
"Boy from the hood but got White House clearance / Obama said, `Chill, you gonna get me impeached` / But you don`t need this s*** anyway/ Chill on the beach," the Sun quoted him as rapping.
Obama`s spokesman, Jay Carney said that it was a song and that that the White House and the President had nothing to do with anybody`s personal travel to Cuba.
Insisting that a different department, the Treasury, approves trips for US citizens traveling to Cuba, he added that he thinks that nothing rhymes with Treasury.
