Music news Michelle Obama bumps homeboy Anthony David in the iPod

Yep, you read right.
In a recent interview with Marie Claire, Michelle Obama was asked what she's rocking in the iPod and she gave Atlanta's own Anthony David some major play:
I have a pretty eclectic mix of everything, from Beyoncé to Stevie Wonder. He’s my favorite artist of all time, so I probably have every song he’s ever recorded. But if I hear something I like somewhere, I’ll add it. I just heard this CD by Anthony David, who’s an R&B guy — I put him on there. That’s brand new, so I’m kind of enjoying that a lot now. I also have some old Mariah Carey; the girls have reintroduced me to some of her older stuff. So I have a good mix: some pop, some R&B, some jazz.
AD released Acey Duecy at the beginning of the summer via friend and long-time collaborator India Arie's new Soulbird Music label, a Universal Republic venture. Click here for a sample on his MySpace page.
And is it just me or does Anthony David not give off a cool presidential vibe on his album cover? Shoot, Barack better watch out.
