⤏ A PLAYLIST FOR SLUTTY SAD GIRL SUMMER
⤏ CURATED BY YESIKA SALGADO
“I traveled a long way and it took a long time to find you, but I finally found you.”
— ALABAMA SHAKES “I Found You”
What is the theme of your playlist?
I was inspired by my “slutty sad girl summer”. Cancer season is winding down, the LA summer skies are perfect, and the world is ending. Let’s sip a strong cocktail and dance like we’re at JLo’s wedding reception seducing all her past broken hearted lovers.
How did you select these songs?
I searched for songs that make me want to dance AND cry. Two of my favorite hobbies.
What’s the most underrated song/band/artist out there right now?
San Cha. She is a local artist and her sound is original and nostalgic. She blends familiar sounds like rancheras and boleros and turns them into something beyond punk or rock. Her sound is sultry, edgy, defiant and dark. I truly don’t have language for what her music does to my tender heart.
What’s one song everyone needs to listen to?
I’ve recently become re-obsessed with the Alabama Shakes and I need everyone to join me. Start with the song “I Found You”. you’re welcome, here is a tissue. don’t text your ex.
Which three artists would you invite to a party?
Drake to make out. Lizzo cause I know she’s a girls girl and we’d have a blast. Brittany Howard to gush over all night.
If you could collab with any musician, who would it be?
I am cheating because I have collaborated with her for a show but I’d love to record an album with San Cha.
If you could feature any song in a movie or TV show, which song would it be and what movie/TV show?
Sunshine by JMSN. Something about that song makes me want to be very happily in love and I’d love to see a couple on screen have a magical moment to it.
You can only listen to one album for the rest of your life. What would it be?
Ahhh it depends. Am I happy? Did I just dump my toxic boyfriend? Am I on a flight back to LA after being gone for a month? Am I at a family carne asada? I cannot pick one. I refuse. I contain multitudes!
What’s your most recently played song?
I Just Wanna Love U by Jay-Z (produced by The Neptunes)
What do you think Rihanna’s going to name her baby?
Rhianna must have named her baby after the most beautiful person to live, herself. Riri Junior or Fenty or Robyn or all three.
