The two men are expected to discuss prison reform, gang violence and “manufacturing resurgence” in the US.
The meeting will take place less than four weeks before the mid-term elections in November.
The rapper, who has been a vocal supporter of Mr Trump, will also meet White House senior adviser Jared Kushner, Mr Trump’s son-in-law.
