Former United States President, Barack Obama, has shared a list of his favourite songs of 2020.
The list, according to Obama, is complied with “valuable consultation from our family music guru, Sasha” who seems to have a considerable influence on her father’s choice of music.
However, his Nigerian choice, ‘Essence’, is a single from Wizkid’s recently released ‘Made in Lagos’ album on which he enlisted fast-rising songstress, Tems.
The former President’s musical taste touches many genres, from rock (Bruce Springsteen’s Ghosts, Bob Dylan’s Goodbye Jimmy Reed, Jeff Tweedy’s Love Is the King) to pop (Dua Lipa’s Levitating, Jessie Ware’s Remember Where You Are) to rap (J. Cole’s The Climb Back, Travis Scott’s Franchise, Lil Baby’s The Bigger Picture) to country (Chris Stapleton’s Starting Over, Ruston Kelly’s Brave).
This comes as a part of Obama’s annual tradition of sharing his favourite entertainment programs, books, and music from the particular year.
Some of the movies from Obama’s movie and TV favourites include Ma Rainey’s Black Bottom, Pixar’s animated movie, Soul, David Fincher’s Mank, the documentary Time, and Higher Ground Productions, Crimp Cramp.
