‘Sittin’ on Top of the World’, the hit song by Burna Boy, and ‘Amapiano’ by Asake are among the Nigerian songs that featured on Barack Obama’s favourite music of 2023.
The former US president unveiled the playlist, which
features 28 songs, via his social media pages on Friday.
“Here are some of my favourite songs from this year. Let me
know if there are any artists or songs I should check out,” he wrote.
The list — drawn across different musical genres — also includes ‘Unavailable’, the hit track by Davido and Musa Keys.
Tems’ hit single ‘Me & U’ also featured on Obama’s
favourite songs of the year.
Other songs on the playlist include ‘Water’ by Tyla,
‘Sprinter’ by Dave featuring Central Cee, and ‘America Has a Problem’ by
Beyonce featuring Kendrick Lamar.

Obama started the tradition during his last days as the
leader of the “free world” when he partnered with Spotify, the US streaming
platform, to handpick his favourite songs.
Burna Boy and Rema’s songs made the former president’s 2019
favourite songs of the year.
In 2020, ‘Essence’, Wizkid’s collaborative song with Tems,
also made the list.
The ex-president, however, did not include any Nigerian
artiste in his playlist for 2021.
‘Last Last’, the hit song Burna Boy, and ‘Calm Down’ by Rema
were featured on Obama’s playlist in 2022.
