Playlist: Ladies’ night

Let’s face it: every night is ladies’ night for me. But for those of you who like to make a special thing out of it, here’s my suggested playlist!

1. Santogold – “I’m a Lady” – the original is great, but try this version too
2. M.I.A. – “M.I.A.”
3. Mala Rodríguez – “Por La Noche”
4. Bahamadia – “Commonwealth”
5. Girlyman – “Young James Dean”
6. Indigo Girls – “Closer to Fine” – the only Indigo Girls song I like
7. Lauryn Hill – “Everything Is Everything”
8. Polyrhythm Addicts – “Big Phat Boom”
9. Roxanne Shante & UTFO – “The Real Roxanne” – really, really old school
10. Yeah Yeah Yeahs – “Mysteries”
11. Nickel Creek – “Beauty and the Mess”
12. The Be Good Tanyas – “Ootishenia”
13. TLC – “Waterfalls”
14. La Bruja – “Unstoppable”
15. Jean Grae – “Not Like Me”
16. Ivy Queen – “Yo Quiero Bailar”
