As you might expect, it's in the same eclectic, inclusive, aspirational spirit as former president Barack Obama's signature playlists (if not quite as outlandishly hep as some of Obama's post-presidency roundups have been, without Malia and Sasha around to pack it with their picks).
Now available on all the major streaming services, the playlist goes free-range at times, with vintage and contemporary inclusions that haven't necessarily been staples of the pre-election campaign, from the Average White Band's classic instrumental "Pick Up the Pieces" to the modern Black Lives Matter-centric group Sault's "Free." Current Grammy nominees Dua Lipa and Kaytranada show up, as do such relatively of-the-moment artistes as Burna Boy, the Internet, MF Doom, Major Lazer and Tame Impala. Boomer tunes are well represented, too, between Marvin Gaye, Stevie Wonder, Led Zeppelin and Bob Marley.
