In partnership with The Obama Foundation, the former president is calling upon some famous faces (and you) to share songs that represent your hometown. And of course, Chicago is up first.

Many of Obama's former staffers share their own songs, as well as authors, chefs, and ChicagoWhite Sox manager Rick Renteria.
An eclectic mix of folks means an eclectic playlist is hard to avoid. Songs from Kanye West to Frank Sinatra to Liz Phair are represented on the playlist. Each person wrote a bit about the song they selected.
"My #1 Chicago band will always be Wilco, but this playlist makes me think of my years with the Defiant Theatre in the ’90s, when our work was deeply inspired by Tom Waits," comedian Nick Offerman wrote about "Get Behind The Mule & Come On Up To The House" by Tom Waits.
Chance the Rapper wrote about how "Family Matters" by Kanye West is his perfect song to return home to. "It reminds me how important it is to be home. This is the last song on the first album I ever bought. For all the great people in Chicago, the best ones are your family."

Chicago is just the first city on the map to get a collaborative playlist. Until those roll out over the next few weeks, you can let The Obama Foundation know what songs remind you of your hometown here.
