Barack Obama Praises Stevie Wonder and Recommends New Podcast Exploring Music Icon's Career

 

Former U.S. President Barack Obama has shared his admiration for legendary musician Stevie Wonder, expressing excitement over a new podcast that highlights a key era in Wonder’s career. In a tweet posted earlier today, Obama urged fans to listen to The Wonder of Stevie podcast, produced by HG Media and Questlove.

"I’ve been a fan of @StevieWonder for as long as I can remember," Obama wrote. "That’s why I’m proud to share The Wonder of Stevie podcast, which explores the five-year period starting from 1972, where Stevie released some of the most groundbreaking albums that transformed music."

The podcast focuses on Stevie Wonder's remarkable creative output between 1972 and 1977, when he released iconic albums such as Talking Book, Innervisions, and Songs in the Key of Life. These albums are widely regarded as transformative, both for Wonder’s career and the broader music industry.

Obama encouraged fans of Wonder and music lovers to check out the podcast, noting that it is available on Audible and other platforms. With Obama's endorsement, the podcast is expected to attract significant interest from fans of both the musician and the former president.

Obama and Wonder have maintained a close friendship over the years, with Wonder performing at several important events during Obama’s presidency.
