Of All Time: Quarantine Playlists from Influential Toronto Females
It didn’t take long for us to realize that Quarantine will be handled much better with music to take us through all of the moods we will experience.
Most of us are feeling reminiscent and nostalgic, which can lead to peaceful moments of slowing down and reflecting. We were adamant on finding out what is on the ‘Best Of’ playlists of some of our favourite Toronto girls who come from different spaces, thus bringing different vibes. Whether a smooth beat R&B comforts you in all the right ways, or if you are someone who likes to keep up the pace with energetic dance tracks- these selections will spark a cord in you.
