On Wednesday, July 29, former first lady Michelle Obama kicked off her highly-anticipated podcast with the inaugural episode featuring her husband, President Barack Obama. If you tuned in and were struck by the opening sequence of the episode, you might be wondering: what’s the song in The Michelle Obama Podcast? Here’s why the track is a fitting way to start things off. During the first minute of the episode, Michelle Obama is heard laughing with the former POTUS and testing out her microphone. Before she gets into the action of the episode, a catchy song plays, with the lyrics: “Ooh, I’m not sorry/Stay sick cause I follow my gut/They say I was pushing my luck/Ima push me a matte all black truck.” If you couldn’t quite place what the tune was, here’s your answer: “Black Truck” by Mereba. Unsurprisingly, the podcast’s opening song has a special meaning that’s all about putting yourself out of your comfort zone and growing from that.
