The rapper also declares his plans for education and jobs in which he will obligate student to learn his lyric and he will raise the minimum wage. "I feel like all fast food restaurants should be paying $15 an hour, since In-N-Out Burger is doing it," he says.
Although the rapper has announced his candidacy for president, he doesn't meet the age requirement to be a president. He is now 28 years old while the candidates have to be at least 35 years old to run the country.
