Lil Wayne may be the Rainman but Trae is the real life Snowman. Houston Councilman Jarvis Johnson has tapped the gruff-voiced rapper and purveyor of all things depressing to host his 3rd Annual “Winter Wonderland” Christmas Party for the students in his district (District B) with the most improved academic record on Thursday, December 18th, 2009. Along with Councilman Peter Brown, who donated toys and decorations for the event, Trae will be on hand to play Santa and meet and greet with the lucky chillrens.

This isn’t the first time Trae has been caught hanging out with Texas politicians. You may recall that he was awarded a Proclamation by Houston Mayor, Bill White, earlier in the year, Trae Tha Truth.

The way Trae keeps palling around with politicians makes me wonder if he’s harboring some secret political ambition. Hey Trae, you’ve got my vote if you ever decide to challenge that Bushy named John Cornyn for his senate seat.
