More summer bops please!

What’s summer without a good playlist?

If you’re looking for music that you can play en route to the beach, chilling in the garden, or on your morning commute – we’ve got you covered. Here’s some songs that are perfect for summer season to get you grooving.

Lizzo: Birthday Girl 

Lizzo is, of course, number one on this list! Her songs are all about optimism and self love. Birthday Girl is worth listening to on any occasion, but especially when you need a boost this summer. The Juice singer is always empowering with her lyrics; “Is it your birthday girl cause you’re looking like a present”— iconic. We all deserve to feel special, whether it’s our birthday or not! 

 

Harry Styles: Watermelon Sugar

Harry Styles always has something to offer, and Watermelon Sugar is one of his best. It’s impossible not to sing along, ideal for girls brunch, picnics in the park, or family BBQ’s (featuring plenty of watermelon, of course). The energetic beat and lyric combo will make you feel fruity for sure. 

 

Aya Nakamura: Copines

Aya Nakamura is a French artist you might not have heard of – but her mix of afro-beats and pop has serious summer vibes. Copines is a song you can’t help but play on loop, and it’s bound to get you moving. Plus, you can practice your French – parfait! 

 

PinkPantheress: Angel

As if we couldn’t love PinkPantheress anymore, she’s gone and released a song for the Barbie the Movie soundtrack – with an Irish reel in the middle! Obsessed. If this isn’t screaming nostalgic summer vibes, we don’t know what will.

 

Beyoncé: Cuff It

Beyoncé’s Cuff It even had Kevin Hart joining in on the dance challenge as it took TikTok by storm. Every part of this song will make you feel like you’re a Victoria’s Secret model. It’s sexy, upbeat and fun; perfect for cocktails with the girls, as your summer workout bop, or for singing in the car. Love.

 

Tai Verdes: AOK

Tai Verdes super chill and lighthearted music is the perfect way to to start your day smiling. This song in particular sets the mood for a day of being ready for whatever comes your way, even when you have to work instead of sunbathe. It’s gonna be A-Okay! 

 

Cardi B (ft. Bad Bunny & J Balvin): I Like It  

Of course Cardi B has to be included; she brings the energy every time! Whether you’re packing lunch or getting ready to go out, this song screams every step of summer – and we’ll be playing it all day long.
