Nigerian music superstars, Tems and Rema, have featured on the summer playlist of former President of the United States, Barack Obama.
Obama shared the summer playlist, which has become an annual tradition since 2015, on his X page.
“With summer winding down, I wanted to share some songs that I’ve been listening to lately – and it wouldn’t be my playlist if it didn’t include an eclectic mix.
“I hope you find something new to listen to!”
Tems features again on the playlist with “Love Me Jeje” from her album “Born In The Wild”, after previously being featured with “Me & U”.
Rema also returns to the playlist with “Yayo”, a track from his “HEIS” album, after his hit single “Calm Down” made the 2022 playlist.
Also featured in the list, alongside Tems and Rema, is South African Grammy-winning singer, Tyla’s song ‘Jump’ featuring Gunna and Skillibeng as Obama’s favourite African songs of the summer.
Nigerian-American country music star Shaboozey’s ‘A Bar Song (Tipsy)’ is number one on the playlist.
The playlist features songs from various artistes, with a mix of classic and contemporary songs across different genres and continents.
