Seeing as it’s International Women’s Month, I thought I’d make a little playlist of some of my favorite songs by some amazing female music artists! It was pretty difficult choosing from these singers’ collections of work, but I was able to choose titles that without fail always make me wanna jam! This playlist ranges from more mellow tunes to full-on bops, so hopefully there’s something for everyone! Support some fabulously talented women, and get listening!
“Hard Feelings/Loveless” by Lorde
Favorite Lyrics:
Bet you wanna rip my heart out
Bet you wanna skip my calls now
Well, guess what? I like that
‘Cause I’m gonna mess your life up
Gonna wanna tape my mouth shut
Look out, Lovers
“Never Would Have Made It” by Teyana Taylor
Favorite Lyrics:
When I look back over what he brought me through
I realize I made it because I had you to hold on to
Now I am stronger
Now I am wiser
I am better, so much better
I made it

I’ve never fallen from quite this high

If you would have let me grow
You could have kept my love

My youth ain’t tangled up in bad decisions
Poor you, you thought you could dictate the rules
Bohoo
