Waka Flocka Flame is being honored for his charity work.
The rapper received a lifetime achievement award from Donald Trump on Friday (April 16) in his hometown of Atlanta. A humbled Waka was all smiles as his pastor and mentor, Apostle Dr. Bridget Outlaw, presented him with a certificate and medal.
“I just wanna thank President Trump for recognizing me,” he said. “Thank Bridget, just thank everybody that loves me just enough to love me back and do everything that I wanted to do that was genuine.”
On Instagram, Waka also thanked Trump, writing, “S/O to my president!!!”
The certificate recognizes Waka’s “lifelong commitment to building a stronger nation through volunteer service.” According to TMZ, the former POTUS signed the certificate and the Trump Administration approved everything before Trump left office in January.
Waka Flocka was honored for his humanitarianism and philanthropy as a volunteer for the Chicago non-profit Daughter of Destiny, an outreach program that helps women by providing employment, food, housing, community, and inner healing.
