It’s tradition: former President Barack Obama shares his favorite books, movies, and songs of the year, and the internet debates whether or not he actually makes them.
When asked by hasanminhaj if those playlists are actually made by him, the answer was an emphatic (and somewhat defensive) “I do!”
He continues: “People, they believe the books and the movies, but the playlists, they somehow think — and this is mostly coming from young people like you — somehow, y’all think you invented rock ’n’ roll. You invented hip-hop. And so the fact that my lists are, you know, pretty incredible — people seem to think, well, he must’ve had some 20-year-old intern who was figuring out this latest cut. No, man! It’s on my iPad right now.”
