Obama Now Listening To Nas & Lil Wayne

On the song “I Want To Talk To You”, Nas said he wanted to talk to the muthafuckin’ president. Well, it looks like he’s gotten a step closer. In the new issue of Rolling Stone, President Barack Obama says that he’s added Nas and Weezy to his playlist.

What music have you been listening to lately? What have you discovered, what speaks to you these days?
…Thanks to Reggie [Love, the president’s personal aide], my rap palate has greatly improved. Jay-Z used to be sort of what predominated, but now I’ve got a little Nas and a little Lil Wayne and some other stuff, but I would not claim to be an expert. Malia and Sasha are now getting old enough to where they start hipping me to things. Music is still a great source of joy and occasional solace in the midst of what can be some difficult days.

    anyways, keep up the good work RapRadar, shame you can’t control these fools commenting on here lol

  50. Belize says:

    I like Obama but I think I lost a little respect with his naming Wee Gayne but regained it with the Nas comment. He prolly just said it cuz for some retarded irrational reason Gayne is the “it” thing of the moment. -_- Nas because of the lyricism and he can’t say Kanye (jackass remark) and can’t say Eminem ( he’ll “kill his mom” or whatever; although you’d think because of the whole them both breaking racial boundaries… :/ )
    ANY NEWS ON EM’S “MONSTER COMEBACK”?

  51. mac DIESEL says:

    KEEP HATING IMPERSONATERS ME AND 50 FUCK YO BITCHES! KEEP UP THE GOOD WORK HA!!!

    DON’T HATE ON MY OPINION!!!!

  52. […]  Nas is more on the diplomatic side in the hip hop community, so this was no surprise to us. But, it was a bit surprising to us that Lil Wayne is on his play list. But then not entirely suprising, because Lil Wayne is a captivating artist, who performances are often well balance, he knows how to adjust to each environment accordingly and he creates music that connects to different demographics- the medicine for great success in any line of music. With this news of who Obama listens to within the hip hop community, we are certain this will gain the attention and respect from the hip hop community. […]

I dont wanna hear abt or see him in a music mag at this current time, not when this recession has the majority a day late and a dollar short after a stimulus pkg that only bailed out companys(who did the wrong thing with the money) to pay there exes there damn bonuses instead of the everyday people. Im still a rider for him but give me something to boast abt, hell we abt to lose seats in congress due to ppl nominating republicans because they not so sure of his capabilites anymore.
