The Harvard Dropout is making his way back to school.

When Harvard University students graduate, they get to experience a commencement speech from some of the most esteemed individuals in the world. Former presidents, Nobel Prize winners, and notable alumni are typically those chosen to speak. Well, this year, the students are in for a treat as one of the school's most notable dropouts will be delivering the commencement speech. Yes, that's right, Lil Pump has been chosen for the honor.

The news comes courtesy of Pump's record label, Warner Bros. Records, who say Pump is the youngest commencement speaker in the history of the school.

Lil Pump commented on the honor saying:

"You don’t gotta graduate from Harvard to do this speech. I dropped out, so they called me like they called the guy that made Windows and PCs and shit before I was born. You just need a cap and gown, which I got. When I found out, I was happy to give everyone a lesson. I’m all about the youth. Yes, they are the future. This is a preview of my speech, one word: ESSKEETIT!!!!!!”

Among some of the other notable names that have spoken at Harvard are Bill Gates, Oprah Winfrey, Mark Zuckerberg, and Steven Spielberg.
