"I think she had a song on there, a little rap that said that. But she likes to play different characters,” Obama said. “So I don't know what's going on there."

"I don't think they really listen to Nicki Minaj that much," he said. "But let's face it, they are now hipper than me. There's a certain point where your kids get old enough where they're hipper than you are."
