Tori’s Tuesday Playlist — 006

The majority of our readers would consider the late 90s and early 00s to be holy ground for music. The women in this playlist are some of the greatest to ever do hip-hop and R&B because they knew how to raise their hands and speak their minds. Their personalities are unapologetic, as artists they understood how to control their narratives to rise within a historically male-dominant genre. Salt N' Pepa taught me to run my life the way I choose because…

Junk drawers. We forget about them and hate the clutter till that one fortuitous moment where you need an exacto knife or some other random specific tool you use maybe once every two years. You stumble over to your junk drawer hoping its there (to be honest—you don't even know if you still own one); you hold your breath as you open the drawer and finally exhale, relieved that you found exactly what you were looking for. The day is saved. Maybe…

Happy Tuesday. Yes, it's that time of the week for your ears to be blessed with tasty tunes. This week I'm introducing some of the best women making electronic music.

I think we've all had an experience where we are forced to meet people that we aren’t sure we’re going to like. It’s a bit like going to a party at that friend-of-a-friend-of-a-friend's place and you’re forced to play nice. So you have a couple of drinks and by the end of the night you and your new friends are inseparable because it feels like you've always been a part of each other’s lives. The powers that be decided that…

Maybe you have already been introduced to some of these artists and musicians. Or maybe not. Either way, I have ten incredible ladies here who cover such a wide variety of genres that I refuse to categorize them into genre boxes. I hate math; but I know enough to conclude that the common denominator here is female badassery and that I am so excited to share them with you. Get hooked. xx Tori
