'MONTERO (Call Me By Your Name)' Lil Nas X
We couldn’t possibly make the ultimate holiday weekend playlist without including this iconic track from Lil Nas X. The "Old Town Road" singer released his new song alongside an unconventional music video, which attracted a lot of controversy over the Satanic references. Nevertheless, "MONTERO (Call Me By Your Name)" is still at the top of the charts weeks after its release, and fans are still praising him.
'Leave The Door Open' Bruno Mars, Anderson .Paak, Silk Sonic
This song, with it’s cool R&B sound, is perfect for a sunny-day playlist with more chill-vibes. It’s upbeat and catchy, and nothing beats Bruno Mars' incredibly smooth vocals. This is also our first real introduction to Silk Sonic, the new duo made up of Mars and Anderson .Paak.
'Beautiful Mistakes' Maroon 5 ft. Megan Thee Stallion
Last but not least is the killer track, "Beautiful Mistakes," which is a classic pop banger in true Maroon 5 style. Not only is this upbeat one perfect for a sunny holiday weekend, but the verse from Megan Thee Stallion will also have you playing this song for weeks on end.
