It’s Mother’s Day Weekend and Okayplayer has you covered with a playlist celebrating all things Mom. From 2Pac’s timeless ode to his mother and Lil Uzi Vert’s apology to their mother for their bad habits and Beyoncé’s matriarchal vow to be a protector, this is a playlist that has a little of everything.
Drake’s emotional revisiting of he and his mother’s struggles in “Look What You’ve Done,” and Ghostface Killah likewise remembering the pain his mother went through raising him and his siblings on his hit “All That I Got Is You” with Mary J. Blige, some artists have delivered intensely personal tributes to the women who gave them life.
Great artists paying homage to Mom could be a genre unto itself, even a great song for Mother’s Day may not be a literal song for Mom. Whether you’re celebrating her for being the beautiful person that she is or recognizing how she’s helped you grow and thrive, we’ve got some beloved tunes that are perfect for her special day.
Happy Mother’s Day!
