Burna Boy, Rema make Barack Obama’s list of songs of the year [See full list]
Former US President Barack Obama has released a list of his ‘Favourite Music of 2019’ which included songs from two Nigerian artistes – Burna Boy and Rema.
Obama shared the chart in a post via his verified Twitter handle on Monday evening.
The former president tweeted:
“From hip-hop to country to The Boss, here are my songs of the year.”
He then recommended songs on the list for his followers who may be searching for songs to keep them company.
He wrote:
“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.”
Burna Boy’s ‘Anybody’ and Rema’s ‘Iron man’ were listed alongside 33 other songs which included ‘Playing Games’ by Summer Walkers, ‘Show Me Love’ by Alicia Keys featuring Miguel, ‘Mood 4 Eva’ by Beyonce.
Recall that in August, Obama shared a list of his 2019 summer playlist which also included Rema’s ‘Iron Man’.
Rema was the only Nigerian artiste who made the list of 44 songs on Obama’s summer playlist.
The 19-year-old’s ‘Iron Man’ sat on number 42 on the list as the only song from a Nigerian.
