As former President of the United States (US), Barack Obama announces his 2023 Summer Playlist, Nigerian superstars Davido and Wizkid are missing on it.
Not even Davido’s piercing ‘Unavailable’ won Obama’s heart.
Burna Boy made it to the list with his song “Sitting On Top Of The World” remix featuring 21 Sãvage, while Ayra Starr made it to the list with her 2023 hit song, “Stability”.
In a tweet on Thursday night, Obama revealed his favorite songs for Summer.
“Like I do every year, here are some songs I’ve been listening to this summer – a mix of old and new. Look forward to hearing what I’ve missed,” the former president tweeted alongside the list.
As always, Beyonce made it to the list, including Kendrick Lamar, Lizzo, Rosalia, and others.
A number of fans, particularly Nigerians, were excited to see Obama’s list of favorite songs this year as they took to the comment section to react.
Below are some of their comments:
@EverythingBia: “Y’all claiming Ayra Starr is a khia. Hope this convinces you she’s a global star? 😁”
@Bolajuade: “No Fuji? Poor taste in music, Barack Hussein.”
@showkeyt: “Add BrymO’s to your playlist, Barrack. You’re gonna love it. @BarackObama”
@emeka67: Obama has the best taste in music of any President full stop.”
