Jim Yong Kim: bank rapper

Is there no end to Jim Yong Kim's talents? President Barack Obama's nomination for World Bank supremo is a doctor, HIV activist and, according to the president, a demon on the golf course. He's also – and this has got to be a first for a World Bank prez – a rapper.

Here he is at Dartmouth College, the Ivy League university where he is now president, showing us his stylings. Fast forward to 2:05 if you can't take the whole thing. Whatever next? Karaoke with Christine Lagarde at the International Monetary Fund?

Under Pressure, perhaps?
