Kendrick Lamar is thrilled that Barack Obama  selected his song ‘How Much A Dollar Cost’ for his favorite song of the year.

TMZ caught up with the rapper, who is nominated for 11 Grammys next year, at the airport.

The reporter asked him how he feels about the presidential nod:

“It’s great man,” he explains. “Help as many people as you can, and you’re gonna live forever’, he philosophically continues.

The interviewer then asked, “Can you guess Michelle Obama’s favorite song? She said ‘Uptown Funk.'”

Kendrick smiled before getting in his car saying “That’s a good one.”
