Jay Pharoah, who is known for impersonating celebrities, chose his latest target - Lil Wayne.

While on Sirius XM's Sway in the Morning on Tuesday, the comedian started rapping in the same style as the Young Money rapper. His nearly two minute impersonation was so accurate, that the host Sway couldn't control his laughter.

Twitter users also commended the comedian. One tweeted, "oh man. i can't listen to lil wayne w/o laughing ever again. @jaypharoah wins, forever. bye, wayne," on Thursday.

"It's explicit, but accurately describes how I feel about #lilWayne...@JayPharoah is awesome "WASPS AND BUMBLEBEES," tweeted another on Friday.

The SNL star, who was rapping some comical lines, didn't stop with just an impersonation of Lil Wayne while on the radio show. He went on to act like President Barack Obama, Denzel Washington, Chris Rock and Jay-Z.

"You just saw Hurricane last night huh? It came out in 1998, that was a long time ago," he joked while acting as Washington. "That's another movie I got Blackboard, I didn't get the Oscar."

Feeding into his jokes, Sway asked, "What about Malcolm X, I thought you should have got that?"

"I should've got it for Malcolm X, every single movie I do I should get it and they don't give me nothing," he replied sounding identical to the actor.

Despite impersonating tons of rappers, including one of his latest Kendrick Lamar which he displayed at Shade 45's studios in New York City in April, Pharoah told Sway who is favorite one to perform is.

"Jay-Z is like really fun for me," he said.

During an appearance on You & Me This Morning in July 2012, the host asked how the comedian manages to get the impersonations so precise.

"I always try to keep studying the person, try to find more things," he said. He gave comedian Eddie Murphy, who always talks with his hands, as an example.
