- You got Classic Rock! Strap into those platform boots and sparkly jumpsuits and prepare your ears for what is arguably the greatest era of music. This playlist has staple groups mixed in with some lesser-known gems (but they’re just as good). It has mainly energetic songs but one or two softer ones thrown in there.
- You got 80s Pop! We hope your hair is teased and sprayed down, because otherwise it won’t stay put while you have an otherworldly experience listening to this playlist. This playlist has only the hottest artists from the decade because, well, they’re the best. Funk and synth to the rescue!
- You got Riot Grrrl! Unleash your inner punk feminist headbanger and get to it. This playlist has the ’90s girls with attitude who’ll probably make you want to punch a hole in your wall. But don’t do that. Everything here is pretty fast-paced, and rightfully so!
- You got Rap! We swear this isn’t just a bunch of random rap songs thrown together, but actually a chronicle of the genre’s transformation throughout the years. From hard-hitting sounds to fun beats, we have it all here.
- You got the Late 2000s! Time to let those throwback feels roll in. This playlist covers some of the best artists from back then, or should we say, the “hit-churners.” Just when you feel your youth is slipping away, don’t fear! Many of them are still making music, but if you still feel old, just tune right back to this playlist.
