The Valentines List.



Tis the season to dote on your significant other. The partner and I have decided to postpone our plans, but for the rest of you who are planning on sealing tonight with some very strong stroking, click play.

Speech DeBelle's sweet-toned rap in "I'm With It" has been on my Top 25 Rinsed Tracks for sometime now. Considering she's massively underrated and coupled this track with a powerful video, I'm going to leave this right here. Wretch 32's "Anniversary" is one of few tracks incorporating love on my personal playlist that will get multiple pull-ups indefinitely. Soft batty-whine on your beau to that!

There's the obligatory Amy Winehouse song, and Clean Bandit's "Rather Be" that is likely to stretch out until summer, because it's that bad. The good kind. "Hey" by the Pixies is a track I came across in a soundtrack for a film whose title I won't mention for PG purposes. There are relatively little lyrics, but Lord knows it's a tune.

The playlist concludes with the well-known "Opposites Attract" where Kendrick Lamar asks many rhetorical questions, and an addition from R.Kelly's Chocolate Factory, which, if you know anything about slow jams, is compulsory.

Sounds like: Butterflies, but in your ear
Skanks like: The gentlest batty whine
For: The lovers
