Last night, President Obama gave his final speech in office. It was a touching and emotional moment for millions of Americans. Only predicted to last around 30-35 minutes, Obama spent 54 minutes speaking to the American public. Topics ranged from his many accomplishments in office, as well as hopes for the future.
The music industry, along with movie/television, is one of the most liberal-leaning industries in media. As such, as you might expect, many DJs and producers had much to say about the event. Autograf even created a song as tribute. See all of that below.
