We are in 2017, women are so empowered. Ever have a long day at work, or school? Ever have a fake friend? Ever just need a boost? Well, here is a list of my favorite empowering jams, to pump you up and make you feel like the baddest bitch in charge of the aux.

1. "Bodak Yellow" by Cardi B

This song is great, especially because we all have that one person who we despise. But at the end of the day “ You can f*** with me if you wanted to…”

2. "Stay Together" by Noah Cyrus

This is one of my favorite songs that I scream whenever I am in the car. We all have done something that we did one summer night that we semi-regret doing. “ You can call me shameless, waving to my people now I’m acting like I’m famous…”

3. "I Don't F*** With You" by Big Sean

This is a classic song that will guarantee to put you in a better mood. With your down, music turned all the way up, and middle fingers waving, Big Sean’s classic song will boost your spirits to another level.

4. "Work It" by Missy Elliot

Have you ever felt like you needed to prove yourself? Let’s face it we all have. Missy’s oldie but goodie will literally make you put your thing down, flip it, and reverse it.

5. "Hey Ya" by OutKast

This is one of those songs where you can be sitting your car, and shaking it. Its so hard not to dance, shake, or shimmy when listening to this. We have all been in a place where you look someone and think “Oh, you think your hot shit” . Outkast has that one verse that relates with everyone. “ You think you’ve got it. Oh, you think you’ve got it.”. Then the classic part where your voice gets high and you say “if what they say is “nothing is forever”…”.

6. "New Rules" by Dua Lipa

When this song hits you just want to dance, even if you don’t know the new rules, I mean lyrics. Dua Lipa told BBC, “Its about keeping your distance from someone who’s bad for you. I am setting some rules down so [that I] won’t go back to that person.” This is a great song if your trying to feel like a bad bitch after a breakup, or even before you do it.

7. "No Scrubs" by TLC

No Scrubs is a classic, when your driving with your friends, or getting ready at home. You have to crank up the volume and sing your heart out. We have all had those guys or girls who were scrubs, but we know better because TLC said, " No I don't want no scrub."

8. "Life Cycles" by The Word Alive

Contrary to the other songs, this one goes out to those in the heavy-alternative scenes. The main quote of the song is " I'd rather die for what I believe than live a life without meaning." Deep right? We all believe in something, but it puts into perspective that whatever your are doing has a meaning.
