NEWARK — Ever wonder what city Mayor Ras Baraka listens to as he is jetting between events and press conferences? Wonder no more.

Earlier this week, Baraka tweeted a link to a Spotify list with the explanation, "My Playlist!"

A look through the 21-song playlist shows songs ranging from Run DMC's "King of Rock" to a 15-minute instrumental version of "My Funny Valentine" by Miles Davis.

Baraka named the playlist #StayWoke, a popular social media hashtag prompting followers to be aware of current issues. Check out Baraka's playlist below.

The list does not mark the first time Baraka has shared his musical preferences. During the mayoral election last year, Baraka told NJ.com some of his favorite artists include Curtis Mayfield and Nina Simone. Both appear on the playlist.
