Jay-Z, “Give me a chance. Maybe in 8 years, I’ll be the president.”

Jay-Z told BBC Newsbeat that he may consider running for President in the future.

On President’s run at presidency thus far: “He inherited the worst economy, war, just a horrible time in American history. So if we think he can solve that, I mean, we don’t think he’s God, do we. He’s a human being. He’s going to need time to figure that out.”

(Pre-election results) On Repulicans potentially having control of the House: “Maybe the Republicans will win one of those houses, so this way they’ll have to be responsible for whether a law gets passed, and they can’t put it on Obama.”

On his interest in politics: “Give me a chance,” he said. “Maybe in eight years, I’ll be the president.”
