Just because former President Obama isn't living in the White House doesn't mean he has to walk away from the programs he started when he was there. 

Case in point: His "My Brother's Keeper" program is alive and kicking! And here's the proof: Obama's initiative to better the lives of young boys and men of color just dropped a new ad. 

Oh, and did we mention that Steph Curry and Chance The Rapper are guest stars?

In it, the two-time NBA Finals MVP and Grammy-winning rapper are both looking at their cell phones while the former POTUS delivers his speech from his initial MBK announcement.

"I want you to know, you matter," Obama said back in 2014 when he announced this program to the world. 

"There is nothing, not a single thing, that’s more important to the future of America than whether or not young people all across this country can achieve their dreams.”

We agree Sir!

In addition, the video highlights young men of color recognizing the unique role they play in shaping America’s present and future, the Huff Post noted.

“We are the ones to inspire our generation, to rise up, take action and stand for the idea of opportunity for everyone,” says one young man in the video. 

“Not just for the sake of young men like me, but for the sake of America’s future.”

“We are the ones,” Curry says in one scene, followed by Chance the Rapper saying, “I am my brother’s keeper” in the next.

WORD!

Take a look for yourself:

It's not a secret that Curry and Obama are pretty good friends. 

Last April, Obama hilariously gave Curry some basketball pointers for a PSA on the importance of mentorship.

Curry's not the only athlete to help Obama out. 

Last year, Kevin Durant also made a cameo to encourage other Black men to be mentors to the younger generation. 

Big ups! We appreciate that Obama is still out there repping for young Black men and enlisting our favorites to help him! Kudos brothas for setting an example to our youth! 

Are you your brother's keeper?
