The Top One Percenters Playlist Vol 34


I took a break from creating and posting music playlists on IG for #BLM. Can't take away from what's important. But mental health is also important, and sometimes you need a distraction and time/space to get out of your own head. Escape life, so to say. So here we have a super-sized Top One Percenters Playlist Volume 34. As always, an eclectic mix of indie pop, dance, rap and r&b. 

You may be tired of hearing "Savage" but Major Lazer did a dope fucking club remix that makes the record sound brand new. There's new records from The Neptunes and Deadmou5 ("Pomegranate"), Jamie XX-style tracks like The 1975's Shiny Collarbone (I swore it was Jamie XX when I first heard it), newer artists like Rina Sawayama ("Love Me 4 Me"), Sofia Hoss ("Where Did You Go"), Molly Moore ("Handsomer"), and the usual collective of banging fucking music. 

Remember Baauer and "Harlem Shake"? He recently released a new album, and the standout track "REACHUPDONTSTOP" is included here. I bought some club speakers and I can't wait to bang that shit loud as fuck on em. 

There's something for everyone, I promise. Playlist below, tracklist after the jump, and link here for Vol 33.


Kanye West's 2010-2011 is the Greatest 2 Year Stretch in Music History

I was listening to Rick Ross' "Live Fast, Die Young" a few weeks ago and "I Don't Like" came on next. Then "Christian Dior Denim Flow." Then "Devil in a New Dress" and "Niggas in Paris." And I thought, damn, Kanye had a really crazy 2010 and 2011. 

After discussing with a few friends and strengthening my argument, I landed here:
