⤏ A PLAYLIST FOR THE GIRLS
⤏ CURATED BY TRASH MAG
“are you gonna liberate us girls from male white corporate oppression?”
—SONIC YOUTH “KOOL THING”
What is the theme of your playlist?
Femmes being punk as fuck.
Why did you select these songs?
I saw Flames of Durga in Joshua Tree then Amyl & the Sniffers and Die Spitz in LA recently and their performances were so explosive and I’ve been fired up on female punk for the last couple weeks. I love hearing heavy guitar, screaming, and deep bass from girls, it’s just so cool.
What’s one song you wish you wrote?
IPHONE by Rico Nasty. I haven’t a single musical bone in my body but that’d be wild.
You get to spend a day with three artists. Who are they and what are you doing?
Tyler, the Creator, Zack Fox, and Thundercat. They’re so cool. I can see us becoming friends at a diner and going to spend money afterwards?
You can only listen to one artist for the rest of your life. Who would it be?
I consume music by songs and playlists rather than albums and entire discographies, so I just can’t even imagine a world that small…
What is your most frequently played song/album?
This isn’t an exaggeration, I listened to No Hands by Waka Flocka Flame every single morning last year. That entire album is incredible.
If your life were a movie, what 5 songs would be on the soundtrack?
You’ve Got a Woman by Lion because we love a psychedelic feminine moment
Teen Age Riot by Sonic Youth when I’m driving fast
WTF I Want by Meg Thee Stallion for necessary ego inflation
Everybody Wants to Love You by Japanese Breakfast as self care
For My Dawgs by Waka Flocka Flame because I love my friends. The entire Twilight Saga soundtrack would work too.
What’s a song everyone needs to listen to?
The amount of times I listened to Poland by Lil Yachty in one day dictated my mood for at least a week.
What’s the most underrated song/band/artist out there right now?
I added Die Spitz to the playlist 3 times because I really want them to blow up.
What do you think Rihanna named her baby?
Probably something more magical than I can fathom predicting.
