See Barack Obama's Outfit That Diddy Shouted Out on Instagram

The former POTUS just got the stamp of approval from the world's richest rapper.

An older picture of Obama in a tracksuit has resurfaced on social media and caught the attention of the King of New York himself, Diddy

Barack Obama’s all-black Adidas tracksuit picture was resurrected online over the weekend. Since he first wore it in 2009, social media has been obsessed with it. This “ultra-chill” look was famous because POTUS paired Adidas with its arch enemy Nike. Political fashion message? When Twitter caught wind of the sweatsuit again in 2016, people immediately said President Obama was about to release an album on Soundcloud for sure. Funny, but inappropriate! Remember when Obama dropped the mic on 'em?

This year people are adding workout buddies to the picture!

This sweatsuit just goes to show that Obama is STILL every guy’s fatherhood goals: “Cool Dad.” The picture totally gives off the “New life, who this?” vibes he has been giving lately. We're with Diddy on this one — old or new, Obama is too cool!
