Your Playlist Sucks

Author: Natalie Lum-Tai and Thomas Francis

Everything you didn't know you wanted to know, about music. Mark Horosko and Enbani Moore are two guys with different backgrounds but a shared love of music. Each week, our expert music listener hosts duel it out, putting each other's Spotify playlists on blast while sharing stories of music history, race and obscure nonsense. You'll learn music culture facts like which Supremes chart topper was beamed into space, how copyright law forever changed 90s Hip Hop, what Jean Claude Van Damme film inspired the dance from "Danza Kuduro," and all that we ask is that you help us solve life's greatest mysteries like "What ever happened to Nelly?" and "Was Rasputin by Boney M. playing when the Berlin Wall fell?" in return.

8. One, You're Like a Dream Come True But Your Playlist Sucks: Elections
Episode 8
Wednesday, 11 November, 2020

Now that the election fatigue has hopefully worn off, we bring you episode 8 - the final episode in Season 1 of Your Playlist Sucks Podcast. What a wild ride it has been, a huge thank you goes to our listeners for sticking with us! Recorded prior to Election Day, hosts Enbani and Mark talk about elections, democracy, protest music, and civic engagement. Listen to the playlists on our website www.playlistsuckspodcast.com or follow us on Spotify. What are voters looking for when they head to the polls (Somebody To Love by Jefferson Airplane) to choose their commander in chief (Mr. November by The National)? You'll get a laugh when Enbani surprises Mark with a game of Who Said It? the Kanye or Trump Twitter edition and join us in reflecting on the past four years and the state of the union today, as Mark and Enbani discuss how those feelings have been perfectly captured by artists of all genres (FDT by YG and Nipsey Hussle, Normalization Blues by AJJ). Finally, our hosts know that there is anti-racism work to be done regardless of the outcome of this election and have one last call to action for you.
