Itâs a new year, so weâre reinventing ourselvesâ obviously. This year weâre manifesting more money, abundance, love, and the âCongratulations, you have been selectedâŠâ e-mails. And with that, youâre going to need all the âhow-tosâ, affirmation lists, and most importantly, playlists. To become a better you, you must surround yourself with positivity and abundance, so if you have that negative toxic friend that always drags you down to their level â consider this your sign to drop them. Itâs important to keep your head held high and walk with purpose, especially on the way to work, class, or just a casual date.
- Did it Onâ em â Nicki Minaj
-
Clearly, if you want to reinvent yourself, youâre going to think highly of yourself. And listening to most, if not all, Nicki Minaj songs will evidently help you with that. In this song, the Queen of Rap talks about her competition and how she is climbing to the top. In the song, she reiterates âPut your twos in the air if you did it onâemâŠâ, which mocks her competitors who are number two to her.
âMore talent in my mother******â left thumbâŠâ
- Maneater â Kelly Furtado
-
If you donât know this early 2000s hit, well now is your time to be acquainted with it. This song is a part of Kelly Furtadoâs âLooseâ, which also had her hits âPromiscuousâ and âSay it Rightâ. She opens this song with âEverybody look at meâ… and boy we are looking at her for sure. This is one of those songs when you finally get out of your healing era and you want to step back into the dating sceneâŠbut you quickly realize you deserve better than what these dating app boys are offering.
âManeater, make you work hard, make you spend hard, make you want all of her loveâŠâ
- Breakinâ Dishes â Rihanna
-
Did you just go through a breakup during the holidays? Maybe even got cheated on recently (First of all, he didnât deserve you anywayâŠcommit to the no contact)? Rihannaâs third studio album âGood Girl Gone Badâ has all of the hits for you to start reinventing yourself â but start with Breakinâ Dishes. This Barbadian artist gives you the adrenaline rush where it hits the spot and just wants to make you break their dishes, bleach their clothes, and fight a man.Â
âIâma fight a man tonightâ
- Circus â Britney Spears
-
It would be wrong to not include one of the most iconic pop singers of this generation in this list â Britney Spears. This pop singer has multiple âreinvent yourselfâ like songs includingâŠ
- Gimme More
- Stronger
- Work B*tch
- Womanizer
- Piece of Me
But, in this particular song, you get to clearly reinvent yourself and feel like youâre the main character of your own world â because thatâs how it should be. To reinvent yourself, you must prioritize yourself and treat yourself like youâre royalty.
âAll eyes on me in the center of the ring, just like a circusâŠâ
- Cozy â BeyoncĂ©
-
We know that BeyoncĂ© has way more âreinvent yourselfâ songs in her discographyâŠ.like way more. But, to get a different vibe than just feeling youâre in the spotlight or youâre defeating your competition â this song takes a different route. The lyrics share a new perspective of insecurities and how you shouldnât hate yourself for the body you have because itâs the only body you have. You need to feel cozy with yourself and have an abundance of self-love to lock that security so you make sure no one can tear down your high.
âSheâs a god, sheâs a heroâ
- New Bottega â Azalea Banks
-
One word for this: opulence. This song makes you feel like going to Rodeo Drive, but in Orlandoâs caseâŠthe Mall at Millenia, and dropping all of your money at all the stores you love. Personally, this song is one of the first songs I listen to when I try to get out of a funk and it works every time because the song opens up with a groove you canât be sad to. Another song to look out for when you make your âreinvest yourselfâ playlist is â212â by the same artist.
âI gotta stay rich and famousâ
- Break Free â Ariana Grande
-
I mean come onâŠthe meaning is in the title. But if you canât figure it out for yourself, Ariana Grande shares her experience in a situationship and how she was under his spell and she broke free from said spell. We know this 2014 song might seem like a weird mix, being nostalgic and cringe. But, itâs that one song that you havenât heard in so long and the bridge always takes you to another planetâŠjust like in the music video.
âIâm stronger than Iâve ever been beforeâ
- Greedy â Tate McRae
-
This upcoming pop star has been really coming for the it-girl title and sheâs almost there with back-to-back hit songs, Greedy and Exes. In this song, the multiple award-winning dancer sings about an egotistical boy who undermines her and thinks he knows her better than she does. She got the ick when she figured that out, but wants to keep playing with his feelings so she puts on a persona â iconic if you ask me.Â
âI would want myself, baby, please, believe meâŠâ
- Pluto â Melanie Martinez
-
In her third studio album, the talented Melanie Martinez sang this song and shared her story of wanting to grow and how something is stopping her from letting her grow. So, she shuts everything out, to better herself so she can find herselfâŠby herself. Youâll often hear her talking to âPlutoâ and itâs because it is the planet of death, rebirth, and transformation. I guarantee you that youâre going to ascend from the ashes when you listen to the bridge â itâs life-changing.
âIâll bathe in my ashes, rise like a phoenix, show me who I am becomingâŠâ
