weekend playlist

It feels like it’s been a minute since the last Weekend Playlist…hasn’t it? I hope everyone enjoyed their holidays and maybe took some much-needed time off work and socials. Sadly, we’re in the dead of winter, which means I’m losing steam quickly. Call it seasonal depression, winter blues, you name it…I have it. But the […]

Now that I’ve obsessively pored through my Spotify Wrapped 2023 playlist a few times over, unfortunately I need something new. Regardless of the fun Spotify Wrapped features this year, my Blend playlists with friends are the entire Stick Season (We’ll All Be Here Forever) album with a mixture of Elvis. So it’s not even like […]

Time to be exposed

The holidays have arrived…

It feels like forever since I’ve graced everyone with a fresh batch of fresh music…but like all that’s inevitable in life – love, loss, aging – I’m here again. Call me persistent, call me determined, call me relentless – I will not give up on finding new music worth listening to every single Friday. I […]

Every few weeks, I get the same text from one of my friends: “Jai, I need new music. I’m tired of my rotation of usual playlists.” And to be honest, a little sigh emits from my mouth every time…why? Because I have a Weekend Playlist article every. Single. Week. I compile all of the latest, […]

When I was younger, I knew of two ways to get music: the legal way, paying $0.99 (and then $1.25) for songs on iTunes, and the illegal way, paying $0 to download the pirated versions on Limewire…Don’t lie, you had your ways, too. Maybe I’m aging myself by saying social media wasn’t as prevalent as […]

Every week, I imagine all of us sitting…thinking about what the next Weekend Playlist article has in store for us. Call me a narcissist, but it’s surely what I’m doing all week long. It’s exhausting, truly. I spend the week excited for new music, because quite frankly I go through so many minutes of listening […]

I don’t know about you guys, but I’m feeling a bit lackluster this week. It may be because of the raging illness I’ve been fighting- and I know I’m not alone here…but there is truly nothing I need more than the weekend and new music. I’m gearing up to cover Sea.Hear.Now festival in Asbury Park, […]

I’m baaaack. That’s right ladies and gentlemen, boys and girls, after a very brief hiatus (do you hear that, One Direction?) we are here with another weekend’s worth of new music. Every week I’m giddy to wake up to all the new releases, it feels like Christmas! And while you may be feeling lost on […]
