“When everybody was playing Brother Blueface for all of his amateur actions I kept saying ‘he’s just a kid that needs some guidance,’” Twitter user @AyeYoTina wrote. “Now look at him, dancing with President Obama.”

Not everyone fell for it, though. According to BET, the impersonator’s voice is what tipped off some fans to realize that they were not looking at the real deal.

“I really thought Blueface had Obama doing the Thotiana for a second,” Twitter user @hotindastreets wrote.

Over on Instagram, one other thing that tipped users off was Brown’s dancing skills.

“Obama had rhythm… that’s a Vice President right here,” Instagram commenter @idancebz wrote. “He really look like bro tho! Lmao.”

Other commenters are referring to Brown as “Great Value” or “Walmart” Obama.
