In no particular order, I've selected the favorite tracks from 2017's playlists for our sixteenth annual Choice Cuts end-of-year mix. Here are the next five:
13. Land Of The Free — Joey Bada$$
Joey Bada$$ is a bad ass, and "Land of the Free" is the perfect example of that. "The first step in the change is to take notice/ Realize the real games that they tried to show us/ 300 plus years of them cold shoulders/ Yet 300 million of us still got no focus/ Sorry America, but I will not be your soldier/ Obama just wasn't enough, I just need some more closure/ And Donald Trump is not equipped to take this country over/ Let’s face facts 'cause we know what’s the real motives."
14. So Tied Up (feat. Bishop Briggs) — Cold War Kids
Cold War Kids' Nathan Willett and Bishop Briggs go toe-to-toe, and I'm here for it.
15. Solo Si Es Contigo — Bombai feat Bebe
We heard this catchy tune non-stop while driving through Spain over the summer, and it became a must to include on this mix.
16. Ran — Future Islands
Future Islands boasts the best 1980s combined synth/bass/drum sound of 2017.
17. Fool — Fitz and The Tantrums
The Blogger Kid 2.0 couldn'y get enough of this song for a period of time in 2017, and it's not hard to see why: it's boppy, poppy fun.
Final picks tomorrow!
