In early December, biannual music influencer Barack Obama “revealed” what we knew over time: his end of the year and summer playlist songs are made with more than a little help from daughters Malia and Sasha. . “Sasha is more protective of her music,” Obama said at the time. “There are certain things on SoundCloud – for example, it has a private playlist. She won’t share all this with me, because she’s not sure I’m hip enough to handle it. ” Maybe Sasha saw that Snapchat interview because, today, Obama shared his “favorite music from the 2020 playlist” and it was done with her consultation. “Here are some of my favorite songs of the year. As usual, we had some valuable consultations from our family music guru, Sasha, to put this together, “Obama wrote on Twitter. “I hope you’ll find a new song or two to listen to.” The 30-track playlist balances Jeff Tweedy, Bob Dylan and Bruce Springsteen’s father’s choices with top ten singles such as Beyoncé’s “Savage” and Dua Lipa’s “Levitating,” and new tracks by Travis Scott. , Lil Baby and Mac Miller’s posthumous “Blue World.” There are fluid disco vibes from Jessie Ware, vocals from Jhené Aiko and a whole bunch of indie girls going on with Phoebe Bridgers and Waxahatchee. And, in solidarity with his contemporary memoirist Cazzie David, absolutely nothing about Ariana Grande.
