Unless my iPod is dead (specifically my iPod Classic—I still carry around that vintage gem), you will always see me with my headphones in, listening to music. What am I listening to, you might be wondering? It’s certainly a question I always think about when I’m people watching as I walk around downtown.

The better question is, what really gets me up and moving? The answer: Music with attitude, spunk and a perfect mix of confidence and cockiness. It gets me walking faster and feeling like a total boss—but, most importantly, it keeps me awake. I can almost forego my afternoon Starbucks with the right mix of music.

Here are some of my favourite feisty finds for my Moody Music playlist.

“Wow.” – Post Malone

No one can bring Post Malone down—he’s busy travelling the world, playing beer pong in various cities, releasing smash after smash, and just living his best life. With lyrics like “It’s a moment when I show up, got ‘em sayin’ wow,” and “Yeah, your grandmama probably know me,” consider this the modern-day “TiK ToK.” Also, let it be a remember to tell yourself ‘wow’ – you’re pretty awesome.
