Medley of Western Hit Songs

I’ve put together a playlist of international hits from 2016 that were popular around the world.

A lot of these are songs you probably heard over and over throughout the year.

They all have a stylish vibe, so they’re great as background music while you work or as a companion for a drive!

Since it’s packed with popular tracks, it’s also perfect for anyone who wants to get into Western music but isn’t sure where to start.

The title is “Crazy About You.” As the title suggests, it sings about being completely captivated by someone you love and enjoying a scandalous relationship that treats romance like a game.

The sexy, slightly provocative words might make your heart race as you listen.

It’s a song about an ordinary couple’s relationship.

It’s an empowering song by a woman for women, where she tells a useless guy, “I’m not your mom!” after always cooking and doing his laundry.

Don’t miss the dance in the final scene of the music video, where Jennifer performs with a large group of backup dancers.

You can hardly go a day without hearing it around town.

Not only the lyrics, but the dance in the music video has tons of people hooked.

squabble upKendrick Lamar

The new track from California-born rapper Kendrick Lamar is an ambitious work that fuses West Coast styles like G-funk and hyphy.

Showcasing Lamar’s versatile vocal tones and hard-hitting lyrics, the song weaves in scathing critiques of the music industry and cultural commentary.

Released as the second track on the November 2024 album “GNX,” it also comes with a music video.

It’s a must-listen not only for West Coast hip-hop fans but also for anyone interested in socially conscious rap.
