President Barack Obama blessed our ears this week with two new playlists that are bound to get you up and dancing this weekend.
For the second time during his presidency, Obama has let us into his music library. POTUS selected the songs that caught his attention over this past year.
The Obamas have both shared playlists, and from Michelle's empowering playlist for "International day of the Girl" to the universal "Holidays with the Obamas", we can see that a good taste in music runs in the First Family.
This year's presidential summer playlist comes in two parts: One for the day, and one for the night. And the night version is...intense.
Filled with sensual and relaxing love songs like "Lover Man" by Billie Holiday and "Say Yes" by Floetry, nightime at the White House is definitely an adults-only kind of scene. Something that Barry and Michelle might put on once the kids are in bed, and it's time to sit and relax alongside that special someone.
But flip on the daytime playlist, and you've got all your family BBQ-ing and Sunday jamming needs filled. With hit songs such as "Classic Man" by Jidenna and old time classics like "Rock Steady" by Aretha Franklin, it's the perfect mix for some family friendly fun.
Both of the playlists can be found on The White House's official spotify account. Enjoy.
