On his Facebook page, he lists: Miles Davis, John Coltrane, Bob Dylan, Stevie Wonder,
Johann Sebastian Bach (cello suites), and The Fugees.

I’ve heard him say he also likes hip hop, i. e. Jay-Z

I have a picture of him holding Michael Franti and Spearhead’s “Yell Fire.” I’d post a link if I knew how…

If that picture is any indication, the man has excellent taste in music. :)

I love stretching my Google muscles. Is this the picture you’re thinking of?

That’s the one!
Hopefully he listened to it. It’s excellent.

I’m sure you can send him a question sometime to ask him what he’s been listening to recently. Or maybe he’ll update his Facebook page. I love how he uses technology :D

I have no idea.
But I wouldn’t be surprised if he’s heard Yes We Can and It’s a New Day, both by will.i.am.
