Who’s on your party playlist?
Fetty Wap’s a favorite
If you’re considering throwing a banger your playlist has to be on point.
Though it is important to pick songs that you will enjoy, if your guests aren’t into the music your party will suck. So think carefully when deciding on which songs will be played, keeping in mind that not everyone has the same taste in music.
I went around campus asking students what artist they would make sure to have on their playlist if they were throwing a party.
