Barack Obama unveiled another one of his playlists, this time collecting tracks for Summer 2020. The former president’s selections featured a heavy dose of Hip Hop, including songs by Nas, J. Cole, Megan Thee Stallion, Outkast, Common, Chika and the late Mac Miller.
“Over the past few months, I’ve spent a lot of time listening to music with my family,” Obama wrote on Instagram. “I wanted to share some of my favorites from the summer–including songs from some of the artists performing at this week’s @DemConvention. As always, it’s a mix of genres that travels through various eras. I think there’s something in here for everybody–hope you enjoy it.”
The 44th President of the United States tapped into multiple eras and genres for his playlist. Some of his other notable picks were Anderson. Paak, Billie Eilish, Rihanna, Bob Marley, Otis Redding, Stevie Wonder, John Coltrane, Bob Dylan and Beyoncé.
Obama’s choices also included a little promotion for the 2020 Democratic National Convention, which began on Monday (August 17). America’s first Black president highlighted the convention performers by placing stars next to their names.
Consequence of Sound put together a Spotify version of the playlist since Obama didn’t partner with any specific streaming service for its release.

One track he deliberately left because its his favourite, GOOBA by Tekashi 6ix9ine.

This thing called Obama is a disgrace to Africans…..
No he is not. Quit your bullshit.
Of course he is, first he wants all men to be ass lovers in Africa, which goes against most African culture. Secondly the killing and destructions of African are more in his time than as president…..
Bullshit. Put some facts aka. sources to these statements. I’ll wait.
Show me facts and sources to backup your statement. I’ll wait.
No family should listen to rap songs together … EVER!

Oh look, this Karen still lives in 1992. You know there’s censored versions of rap songs, right?

Kelis is that you?
The fact that some people can’t see that these “playlists” he always drops are blatant pandering to the youth and minorities to seem “cool” is beyond me. This guy is a criminal and the most corrupt president in history. Fuck Obama. And I voted for him in 2008 because I was an idiotic 19 year old who thought he had “swag”….what a moron I was.
Most corrupt president in history. Lol. Learn your history.
I thought i was gonna see nwa fusck the police
Obama’s greatest accomplishment, according to the betamale Democrat men, is getting permission to enter the ladies bathroom in costume. He left out “I’m Every Woman”, “It’s Raining Men”, and “I’m Coming Out” From
His REAL playlist.
