It's hard to believe we're already nearing July. With June quickly coming to an end, we have yet to really find that one -defining- song of the summer, although there have been plenty of contenders. What's your summer anthem, thus far? Has it yet to come, or is there something bubbling under the surface? Is it a song from one of the recent XXL Freshmen, namely, Fetty Wap? Let us know your thoughts in the comments.
While we await that big banger of the summer, we've got this nifty playlist to get us through the weekend and the week to come, if not longer. There's a lot of summer-y, feel-good music in this week's edition of Staff Picks, so it'll definitely be a nice soundtrack to your outdoor activities.
