Does anybody believe that Barack Obama actually listens to these songs?

Barack Obama has once again blessed us with his annual list of favorite songs, something I look forward to more than Christmas itself (Hopefully, you can read my sarcasm). His 2024 playlist is as diverse and solid as ever.

The former president’s list features major hits like “A Bar Song (Tipsy),” “Million Dollar Baby,” and “Texas Hold ’Em,” alongside acclaimed tracks like Billie Eilish’s “LUNCH,” Kendrick Lamar’s “Squabble Up,” and Jack White’s “THAT’S HOW I’M FEELING.” However, in a surprising twist, no Drake songs made the cut this year (Did he pick a side?).

Obama’s lists are known to boost streams, particularly for rising artists, so I’m usually not mad at it. However, can we be real: Is Obama really listening to “BAND4BAND” by Central Cee and Lil Baby? Does he really know what Tyla is singing about in “JUMP?” I call very slight cap.

How do you feel about Barack Obama’s list of favorite songs? Did he nail it?
