Mavin singer, Divine Ikubor, popularly known as Rema has reacted after a former president of America, Barack Obama, has released his 2022 music playlist.<\/p>\n
Rema\u2019s hit track, Calm Down, made the cut this year.<\/p>\n
\u201cI feel the same way I did in 2019 when I saw my Name on this list, I\u2019m very grateful,\u201d he tweeted on Saturday.<\/p>\n
Every year, the former president always shares his favorite playlist in the year. While American artistes always top his music playlist, the former president is still fond of African music, especially Nigerian music.<\/p>\n
Three songs from Nigerian stars \u2013 Burna Boy, Rema and Ayra Starr made it to his favourite music of 2022. Obama listed 25 songs as his favourite for the year ending in a few days, and Burna Boy\u2019s Last Last, Ayra\u2019s Rush and Rema\u2019s Calm Down made the list from Nigeria.<\/p>\n
As always, Beyonce made it to the list, including, Kendrick Lamar, Lizzo, Rosalia and others.<\/p>\n
The ex-US president revealed his favorite list via his official Twitter page on Saturday, saying he enjoyed sharing the list.<\/p>\n
\u201cI always enjoy sharing my end of year music playlist with all of you \u2014 and this year we heard a lot of great songs. Here are some of my favorites,\u201d Obama wrote.<\/p>\n
\u201cAre there any songs or artists I should check out?\u201d He asked.<\/p>\n
In July, Barack Obama had released his Summer playlist.<\/p>\n
According to him, he gets excited to share it with his millions of followers as he had learned about so many new artists from their replies.<\/p>\n
He added that their replies are an example of how music can bring us all together.<\/p>\n
In the past, Rema and Wizkid had made it to his playlist, but this year, the singers didn\u2019t make it into his list.<\/p>\n
Fast-rising singers, Tems, Buju, and Pheelz made it to the list as well as Grammy award-winning singer Burna Boy.<\/p>\n
Sensational singer and the queen of the moment, Tems\u2019 song Vibes, was second on his playlist.<\/p>\n
Pheelz & Buju hit song, \u201cFinesse\u201d also made it to the playlist as well as Burna Boy\u2019s Last Last.<\/p>\n
