The 2025 MBC Issue Editor's Playlist: Hyped & Hopeful

By Deltra James

Music is powerful. Whether our shoulders are shaking with joy or from the release of tears, it has a way of putting words to our emotions — playing softly in the background or rising loud enough to carry us through.

Whether you’re bracing for scan results, clearing your mind, or celebrating something hard-won, here’s a mix of my favorite songs that remind me: every little thing is gonna be alright.

Press play. Turn it up. Let your soul fill with faith and fire.
