Press Democrat ^ | 14 Aug 2015

CHILMARK, Mass. — The White House is launching an official channel on the popular music streaming service Spotify with a pair of playlists it says President Barack Obama created himself.

Obama was announcing his daytime and evening summer music lists Friday on his @POTUS official Twitter account.

The president's daytime list includes tracks from such artists as Justin Timberlake, Stevie Wonder, Aretha Franklin, Bob Dylan and Bob Marley.

His evening lists features music by Al Green, Frank Sinatra, Beyonce, John Coltrane and Billie Holiday.

The presidential presence on Spotify marks the latest step by the White House to boost its presence on social media. The White House is already very active on Twitter, Facebook, Instagram, Flickr and Medium and regularly uses these and other social media platforms to make announcements.

Due to popular request, here are my vacation playlists: http://t.co/uer5sIl4Vk http://t.co/zHEekHvQBr What's your favorite summer song?

Another important BREAKING story.

It doesn't say if will have Obama singing Amazing Grace on it.

I think they should do one on all the presidents. I would like to know what Andrew Jackon or Rutherford B. Hayes (all through my brain) listened to.

Obama is a lot like Kim in North Korea.

A true renaissance man worthy of our adoration and devotion.

Are you implying that Barry is “Fabulous”?

Because that is just a clever term for fag.
