Former President Barack Obama shared his 2020 “Songs of the Year” playlist. This year’s selections include songs by Phoebe Bridgers, Bad Bunny, Waxahatchee, Megan Thee Stallion, Jeff Tweedy, Lil Baby, Lido Pepper, WizKid, Faye Webster, Gunna, Jessie Ware, J Hus and many more. See the full list below.
Like last year’s playlist, the 2020 edition includes both pop hits (“Levitating” by Dua Lipa [ft. DaBaby]) and indie favorites (“Can’t Do Much” by Waxahatchee and Phoebe Bridgers, “Kyoto”), as well as the next generation of Nashville stars (“Brave” by Ruston Kelly and “Starting Over” by Chris Stapleton) alongside veterans of Boy Dylan’s “Goodbye Jimmy Reed”). In August, Obama shared a summer playlist with many of the same artists.
