The interesting thing about the List is that it's believable..He has good taste and I always figured he loved Blues & Jazz...I hope Katy Perry doesnt feel dissed cuz she is probably the biggest obama-Supporter in the Music industry...I still remember her Blue "Obama campaign dress" that fit like a glove...and I still think Michelle is a bigger Beyonce fan and she forced her on him...
