In case you missed any of them, here’s every playlist I shared this week.
Give them a try this weekend!
The Numero Group guide to Sister Funk
A compilation jams recorded by the women of early funk music. Aretha Franklin’s “Rock Steady” is on this playlist, which should be an indicator that this playlist can be trusted to deliver maximum enjoyment.
If you like funky music and need a playlist to work/dance around your house, this is IT.

This lovely piece of work was the result of compiling a lot of modern yacht rock/disco, and then it kind of spirals from there. Honestly? Put this one when you want to CHILL OUT.
Here’s every song to top the Billboard Hot 100 since 1940!!!!
Here’s a playlist of super producer Mannie Fresh’s best hits. Enjoy!
ONE LAST THING
Sunday is the premiere of The Last Dance, a 10-part documentary about Michael Jordan’s last season with the Chicago Bulls. It is essentially the story my entire generation has waited to see. Crazy seeing things you saw live become documentaries, isn’t it? Getting old is weird.
I hope is that this little e-mail is a welcome distraction from the world for you, wherever you are. I hope you and yours are healthy and safe.
Until Monday…
WASH YOUR HANDS!
STAY IN THE HOUSE!
CHECK ON YOUR LOVED ONES!
BE SAFE OUT THERE!
