Summer is in full swing. That means you will probably be hosting a few outdoor get-togethers that warrant a solid list of tunes. I have taken it upon myself to do all the heavy lifting by assembling a playlist of songs sure to please the most diverse of crowds. All you have to worry about is your BBQ technique and your competition in the backyard bocce game. So do yourself a favor and throw these tracks on at your next summer shindig.

There you have it. Now there are no more excuses for those Milli Vanilli songs that some how got in your last playlist. Impress your friends with the smooth sounds of summer courtesy of the J-Man and Saw*Kick Media.


Nice. BUT, if you really wanted to appease me with a summer playlist… it has to include “Burbans n Lacs” by Master P. By far the best summertime hit of all. Other than that, good job.
No Journey, are you out of your mind? Nice J-Man.
