As has become tradition, former President Barack Obama has submitted his own end-of-year listicle highlighting his favorite songs of the last 12 months.

For the first time, President Obama’s favorite songs also include Ethiopia’s renowned singer Teddy Afro new single ‘Armash’ (አርማሽ (ቀና በል)). The President’s playlist also included songs, such as Mitski’s “The Only Heartbreaker”, The War on Drugs, “I Don’t Live Here Anymore”, and Lil Nas X’s “Montero (Call Me By Your Name)”.

I’ve always enjoyed listening to a wide variety of music, so it’s no surprise that I listened to a little bit of everything this year. I hope you find a new artist or song to add to your own playlist. pic.twitter.com/g6kBzAbrZG
