President Obama recently mentioned in an interview with Rolling Stones Magazine that he as inducted B.O.B, Nas and Lil Wayne into his Ipod Selection.
The president expressed his love for the music by saying, "Thanks to Reggie Love (the president's personal aide), my rap palate has greatly improved. Jay-Z used to be sort of what predominated, but now I've got a little Nas and a little Lil Wayne and some other stuff, but I would not claim to be an expert. Malia and Sasha are now getting old enough to where they start hipping me to things. Music is still a great source of joy and occasional solace in the midst of what can be some difficult days."

However, on a more serious note, the president fought back against his critics with a hard-hitting interview. He singles out Fox News for criticism as he tackles the banking crisis, U.S. troops in Afghanistan, the strength of the Tea Part movement, global warming and his decision to sack General Stanley McChrystal in the wide-ranging article.
