The former POTUS's list — as always — was an eclectic batch of hits and sleepers.

Cardi B's Billboard smash "I Like It" with J Balvin and Bad Bunny made the list, as did JAY-Z and Beyoncé's "Apeshit" from their surprise collab album Everything Is Love. Other entries include Normani and Khalid's swooning "Love Lies," H.E.R.'s "Could've Been," and Janelle Monae's "Make Me Feel."
