Very dope right?! If you are having difficulties thinking of songs, then check out our Editor – Christina‘s pick below:

1. First song ever bought: ‘Mo’ Money Mo’ Problems’ (Biggie feat Puff Daddy & Ma$e) … I was 11 years old! The track was blazing every where, it was pocket money and trip to a local store to get it!!

2. A song that makes me dance: Definitely ‘Somebody to Love Me’ (Mark Ronson & The Business Intl)… the beat drops and it all over haha! Oh and Boy George is still a favourite from back in the day!!

3. A song that takes me back: ‘Rock With You’ (Michael Jackson)… it was all about dancing for me… this was definitely something I remember chilling to at one of my birthday parties… My 4th birthday party to be exact!

4. Best song ever heard live: ‘Otis‘ (Jay-Z & Kanye West) at the Watch The Throne Concert recently in London… words just can’t describe it!

5. A Song at my Funeral: ‘Heaven‘ (John Legend) … The Lyrics go “Make this night the best night. It’s time for second chance. Turn the beat up on repeat and we could start to dance” that’s what I want everyone doing!!

6. My Encore? ‘Doo Wop (That Thing)‘ (Lauryn Hill)… I’m a chill out kind of girl… this songs gets me live everytime, Lauryn was the best… drinks, bbq, dance anyone?
