(AllHipHop News) Former President Barack Obama reminded his 111 million Twitter followers that he still pays attention to what is happening in pop culture. Obama presented his “Favorite Music Of 2019” on Monday.
“From hip-hop to country to The Boss, here are my songs of the year. If you’re looking for something to keep you company on a long drive or help you turn up a workout, I hope there’s a track or two in here that does the trick,” tweeted Obama.
