This playlist comes with a very simple setup: your hairbrush, your kitchen, something delicious frying in the pan, and the music playing not just on your phone but preferably from your laptop. Why? The dynamics simply sound better.
So who is guiding us through this kitchen pre-party? None other than the queen of the pop era, Britney Spears — because if there’s one thing better than dancing to the beat, it’s singing along at full volume.
All Saints glide in with the dreamy Pure Shores, while the Spice Girls remind everyone that dancing in the kitchen is absolutely not optional with If U Can’t Dance.
And if this kitchen pre-party doesn’t end with you heading to the club but instead takes you straight to bed with your favourite series — who cares? That just means the playlist did its job even better.
