14 2Pac : It Ain't Easy
HIGH SCHOOL: This is a tough category. It spans four developmental years splattered with some really bad music. But I’ll concede I was obsessed with 2pac. I think a lot of prep school dorks were/are. But the feeling of being frustrated with not being able to say what you mean during a confusing time in your life did manage to come through in a lot of his songs. And when he wasn’t on a tirade of disjointed logic, he had some interesting things to say, and an uninhibited presence unmatched by any big name rappers since.
On we go!

15 Solex : Look... No Finerprints!
FAVORITE CLOSER: Not from my favorite solex album, but my favorite closer of probably her most accessible album. I considered a lot of epic, smashing closers, but I decided to end this mix more lightheartedly. This song also maintains the warm and poppy feel of the previous track.
