PinkPantheress doesn\u2019t think anyone would be too surprised by the collection of songs saved to her phone. Her own records are often erratic, moving quickly from one idea to the next. It makes sense, then, that when she let Rolling Stone<\/em> sift through her library on the latest installment of Song Shuffle<\/em>, the results yielded songs from Davido, Kaytranada, Normani, and more.<\/p>\n \u201cMy playlist is actually a little bit of fuckery,\u201d PinkPantheress says. The first song up is Rihanna and Drake\u2019s \u201cWork.\u201d The record takes the musician back to the much-reminisced-about summer of 2016, when every party playlist was dominated by Anti <\/em>and Views<\/em>. Between \u201cWork\u201d and \u201cOne Dance,\u201d she says, \u201cyou could not escape. You couldn\u2019t leave the house.\u201d<\/p>\n More from Rolling Stone<\/strong><\/p>\n The same can be said of Davido\u2019s \u201cFall,\u201d which PinkPantheress says is a staple of African weddings, in particular. \u201cI\u2019m African and I\u2019m from the UK, so there\u2019s like a five-song rotation of songs that basically all Africans know in the UK, and this, I think, is one of them,\u201d she says. \u201cThat\u2019s a function one, or a wedding, specifically an African wedding, the reception.\u201d Big functions like a wedding are great for popular, familiar songs, but some guilty pleasures stay in the vault. PinkPantheress names Justin Bieber\u2019s My World 2.0 <\/em>as one of hers.<\/p>\n But she\u2019s also vocal about her love for Kaytranda, whose Thundercat collaboration \u201cBe Careful\u201d pops up during her shuffle. \u201cI\u2019m the biggest Kaytranada fan. When I was first making music and producing, I\u2019d listen to him a lot and just try and imitate that style,\u201d PinkPantheress says. \u201cI think what makes him so good is because his skills are very much limited to basically him and him only, which is why you can\u2019t find many people that replicate his sound very well. He\u2019s so incredible to me.\u201d<\/p>\n After covering the bases of Afrobeats, bubblegum pop, electronic house, and UK rap (she loves Central Cee and Potter Payper), PinkPantheress\u2019 library expands to \u201cWild Side,\u201d Normani and Cardi B\u2019s \u201cgenius dark R&B song\u201d that interpolates drums from Aaliyah\u2019s \u201cOne in a Million.\u201d \u201cI\u2019m such a nerd for this shit,\u201d she says. \u201cMy producer brain went off, and I was like, okay, this is the stroke of genius.\u201d<\/p>\n Her producer brain took center stage on her recently released mixtape, Fancy That<\/em>, which features the viral single \u201cIllegal.\u201d \u201cWhenever I make music, I always imagine the listener to look like me,\u201d she says. \u201cSo when I say that, I mean, girlies my age, East African girls, I\u2019m imagining it\u2019s for them. Fifth percent of my fans, I\u2019d say, are K-Pop fans who are also East African. Pretty much any venue that will have me, I\u2019m just honored to be played by anyone, to be honest.\u201d<\/p>\n pmcCnx.cmd.push(function() { pmcCnx({ settings: { plugins: { pmcAtlasMG: { iabPlcmt: 1, }, pmcCnx: { singleAutoPlay: ‘auto’ } } }, playerId: “d762a038-c1a2-4e6c-969e-b2f1c9ec6f8a”, mediaId: “b43b79af-3b50-45e6-bbd1-9d3264157f03”, }).render(“connatix_player_b43b79af-3b50-45e6-bbd1-9d3264157f03_1”); });<\/p>\n Best of Rolling Stone<\/strong><\/p>\n Sign up for RollingStone’s Newsletter<\/a>.
