during an interview Hassan Minhaj Last month, Obama insisted that the playlist was indeed made by him. “I’m very happy to have this opportunity,” he told Minhaj. “People, they believe in books and movies, but playlists, they somehow think—and that’s mostly from young people like you—that somehow, you all think you invented rock.
He continued, “Look, that’s the bottom line of my playlists, book lists, and movie lists. I’m very careful to make sure it’s something I actually enjoy. I admit, sometimes — on playlists, music lists — I get suggestions. Because I don’t have time to listen to music all the time.
