If you were like us, we didn’t care much for Barack Obama’s playlist on Spotify. Yeah, yeah, sorry people. Forgive us, but why listen to what he’s listening to when we could listen to WHAT WE’RE LISTENING TO. Then again, we never fed into the Spotify thing much. We’ve been discovering music and digging in the crates for old stuff on the ‘net without needing a streaming service to help us. Call us, old school.
Either way, Mick Boogie and Terry Urban made a mix of Obama’s playlist, making it an actual mixtape to get you through this President’s Day weekend. Barack has good taste, though. Play this back if you want to listen to something outside of hip-hop.
The 2012 Presidential Campaign playlist includes music from U2, Aretha Franklin, Al Green, Florence & The Machine, No Doubt, Bruce Springsteen & Raphael Saadiq.
