Before "Hamilton" premiered on Broadway in August 2015, composer-lyricist, director, and star Lin-Manuel Miranda performed the opening number to the musical - the then mix-tape - for President Obama at "An Evening of Poetry and Music: The Spoken Word" in May 2009. This song will also be performed on the Grammy's by the entire cast of "Hamilton."
