Influential People — They're Just Like Us! They like to eat at Rasika, love the Lincoln Memorial—and have very eclectic taste in music.
We also asked the influencers to tell us their favorite spots to visit in the city. A vast majority—again, perhaps no surprise—favor historic landmarks and museums. The U.S. Capitol took the number one spot for many of them—possibly because it’s a place they may visit more than most . For others, the Lincoln Memorial, the National Gallery of Art, Rock Creek Park, and the National Mall were their top spots.
We also asked the influencers which song they would play if they could cue a walk-up song when entering their office, and we were met with an eclectic mix of hip-hop, pop, rock, and even children’s songs. Survivor’s hit single from“Eye of the Tiger,” had the most mentions, while U2’s “Beautiful Day” and Lizzo’s “Good As Hell” were a close second. Alicia Key’s “Girl on Fire,” DJ Khalid’s “All I Do Is Win,” and Bruce Springsteen’s “Born To Run” were also hits.
