I saw the set list earlier and it did include that song "Alright" (which is reputed to be the "informal anthem of the Black Lives Matter movement).

However, when I searched for the set list just now, I found this note (below), which says that while "Alright" was among the songs performed, the songs were "heavily re-worked" to make them "family friendly" for the White House. I don't know how one would make that song "family friendly" without stripping it bare, but apparently a very different, less offensive version of the song may have been performed for the WH.

"The highlight of Obama's Presidency"

"Kendrick’s setlist included “Swimming Pools (Drank)”, “Money Trees”, “Bitch Don’t Kill My Vibe”, “Poetic Justice”, “A.D.H.D.”, and “Alright”. Surprisingly, he did not perform “How Much a Dollar Cost”, which President Obama called his favorite song of 2015. Kendrick also heavily reworked the songs to omit any curse words or controversial language — it was a family friendly event at the White House after all!"

Hmmm! Wonder how you go about reworking that so "it was a family friendly event at the White House after all!"
