In honor of the #FirstDayOfSpring, March Madness and pedicure weather, I've put together a very "stuck in my office but the weather is incredible" playlist for y'all to enjoy. As always, there are some songs you've probably heard of, some songs you probably haven't and some songs in some other languages. It's one hour and 44 minutes of spring-y goodness.
- Dennis Rodman by mansionz - This song is weird and only gets weirder when the actual Dennis Rodman comes on and starts word-vomiting. But it's catchy AF and has maybe my favorite lyric on this playlist: "I don't care about who's watching..... Dennis Rodman." I can't even begin to talk about the duo that is mansionz though....
- Slide by Calvin Harris (ft. Frank Ocean, Migos) - Could easily be the song of the summer. Could also easily be on the soundtrack at Old Navy. Could be both. Either way, this song is a BOP. I effing love a groovy song with a great bass line. Totally on board with this one.
- Spring Day by BTS - First of all, the song title basically forced me to include it, right? Second of all, it's in Korean. I know, I know... but here's the thing- it's a fantastic mid-tempo pop song. Truly fantastic. I have no idea what they're saying and while I could easily Google the lyrics, I have no desire to. This song is about the awakening the world experiences from winter to spring and also a great down beat. That is all.
- Piece Of Mind by Kehlani - This girl has a great voice. Another mid-tempo tune with a good beat. That's really why it's on here. I like it and the beat is just mellow enough for a work environment. Lyrics NSFW AF though.
- Shape of You (Major Lazer Remix ft. Nyla & Kranium) by Ed Sheeran - Listen. I'm SO over the original of this song already. It's the best damn song but it's been played approximately 923654521228 times too many. But this is just another really good Major Lazer remix. Probz too aggressive for an office environment but sometimes a girl just wants to dance, ok?
- Don't Recall by K.A.R.D - Again, I know you can't understand most of the lyrics but who cares? Great beat. Island vibe. One of the dudes has a superrrrrrr deep voice and it makes my heart warm. I like this song. You will too. Get over the language thing.
- Can't Have Everything by Drake - I like when Drake raps. I especially like it when he's clearly rolling his eyes and condescending.
- Trap Queen by Enzo Bennett - This is incredibly mellow and the dude's voice is like butter. Such a good reworking.
- Blood In The Cut by K.Flay - This is like if Halsey was actually as badass as she wants you to think she is. Rock vibe. Going to be in a commercial for some show about a female lawyer who is "breaking down walls" soooooooooon.
- Selfish by Future (ft. Rihanna) - This song sounds a lot like Stand By Me but I really enjoy how chilled out RiRi and Future are while they're harmonizing. This song sounds like watching the sun come up after staying up all night drinking.
- Faded by Asiahn - This is just such a vibe. Great voice. Mellow beat. She's pissed though.
- About You by xxyyxx - Ok y'all. This one is so mellow and relaxing. It samples some random stuff and then plays some of it backwards.... it's weird but really good to put on for productivity purposes. If you figure out what the lady is saying when it's backwards, let me know.
- By Your Side by The 1975 - You know I'm not going to leave my boys off of a playlist. I'm especially not going to do it when it's a mellow Sade cover.
- Teenage Fever by Drake - 100% included for the J.Lo sample which I find audacious and so freaking Drake.
- Not Today by BTS - This song is about 12,000% too hype for this playlist but y'all NEEDED to know about it, OK?! Again, not in English. Suck it up. This song is incredible.
- Netflix & Dusse by Smino - This is another catchy one and the word play on the chorus is really fun. Honestly, I feel like they are tap dancing over the beat. So good.
- Bom Bidi Bom by Nick Jonas (ft. Nicki Minaj) - I love a soul guitar and a repetitive chorus. This one will crawl up into your ear and hibernate.
- Shot Down by Khalid - Khalid is easily the most exciting singer of last year and I'm so amped on his new album. Like I tried to tell y'all about The 1975, Lorde and k-pop, I'm telling you about Khalid. Get. On. Board.
- Au Volant by Elsa & Emilie - This is one from my favorite genre: Angelic Female Voices Over Hudson Mohawke Style Beats. (I need to work on the name of the genre.....)
- Waves by Kanye West - I'm obsessed with this song. I cried when Yeezy cancelled his Columbia, SC show because I wanted to be a part of the crowd screaming, "WAVES DON'T DIE" while Kanye looked down on us. Sadz.
- Trap Trap Trap by Rick Ross - Idk. I just like this song. Rick Ross is great and I enjoy walking around saying, "Trap trap trap trap trap trap."
- Who That Be by Rich Chigga - I cannot stress how much I like this song. It's like if Lil Dicky was a 17 year old Indonesian kid with a deeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeep voice. Song goes hard. I love it.
- Cave Me In by Gallant (ft. Tablo, Eric Nam) - This song sounds like driving with the windows down at night feels. I literally have no other way to describe it. It's great though.
- Once by Maren Morris - If you watched the Grammys, you saw Maren perform this with Alicia Keys. It's better solo. It's so soulful. So powerful. If this is the direction country music is going then I'm all in.
- Poolside by Baynk - This song is hard to listen to in my office because it sounds exactly like sitting poolside. Very California sounding though I think the dude has a British accent? Definitely on the Urban Outfitters soundtrack within a week.
- Girl At Coachella by Matoma (ft. MAGIC!, D.R.A.M.) - The song is good but it's really on here because of the title. #NeverTrustAGirlAtCoachella
Enjoy!
