New Playlist Alert: #MEMEWORTHY
This one goes out to all you kids on the TikTok machine and whatever other new-fangled social platforms there are. These tracks are all either:
a) ridiculous
b) catch AF
c) beat-heavy
or
d) all of the above.
And if there’s one thing we know about social media is that it’s freaking ridiculous.
If you’re asking yourself why we’ve made a playlist for misspelled clocks, then perhaps you’ve gotten lost and taken a wrong turn. But let’s be real. Anyone over the age of 21 is lost in the algorithmic, ever-changing, semi-disturbing world of social media. We’re all trying to keep up and comprehend the incomprehensible.
But if you’re reading this and laughing at the old farts trying to be cool by openly admitting they aren’t cool… and that they still use the word “cool,” then this playlist is (hopefully?) right up your alley.
Get after it, kiddos.
We’re not going to lie, there’s some weird @$$ stuff in here. There are bowel-shaking bass swells, whacky-vocal hooks, 8-bit beats, irreverent punk screams, and a host of tracks waiting for a viral moment.
Here are just a few of our favorite #memeworthy tracks:
“All Up Into Yo Junk”
Go ahead, get your mom to lip synch this track on video, we dare you. The throbbing bounce club beat over a repetitive crunk-centric lyrical mantra is a surefire win. Bet you those words haven’t been put in the same sentence before.
“Rocket Ship”
Speaking of repetitive lyrical mantras, “Rocket Ship” takes a six-word phrase and just goes with it. With a thumptastic club beat, undeniable swagger, and a hook that will be in your head for days even if you only heard it for a few seconds, surely this has a place in TikTok Land.
“Adorable Saves the Day”
Harkening back to the days when video games were available on glitchy consoles, black and green screened computer monitors, and actual arcades, this track contains the sounds of chasing golden coins, searching for lost princesses, slowly shooting down invaders from space, and all of the aged nostalgic cheese you’ve been looking for. Eat it up.
