DMC PART OF WHITE HOUSE FATHERS DAY CELEBRATION: Rapper also visited local school to share message of responsibility.

       The pair was among a group of 15 famous men gathered by President Obama to visit Washington area community organizations and share their personal stories in hopes of encouraging young people to pursue their dreams.      

       A town hall meeting on fatherhood with President Obama, community organization leaders and young men from those organizations followed the visits as well as a barbecue with 130 high school juniors and seniors on the South Lawn of the White House.       

       “I think what Obama wanted to do; he wanted these kids not to just look at him and what he achieved," DMC told AllHipHop.com. "More importantly, what about their family? What about the black man next door that the kid could look at as an example?…It’s easy to make babies, but making a baby and being a father and being a man that these kids can look to for leadership, direction and information that’s a whole ‘nother story.”
