The future is Drake!
Music is such a personal thing, don’t you think? For years and years I thought I had interestingly eclectic taste (The Dead Milkmen featured heavily in my younger rotations) but as I aged I realized it was just unrefined boorish taste and now I unashamedly listen to Miley Cyrus’s Malibu especially while writing.
In the book Cocaine + Surfing (buy here!) I describe it as “teenage girl” taste which, in retrospect, is very rude and could even be seen as an attempted going after the dreams of real teenage girl Caroline Marks.
And what does the sixteen-year-old future of professional surfing enjoy? Let’s turn to ESPN W!
While traveling the world for surfing competitions isn’t exactly the stuff of a typical teenage life, a great playlist can help to keep her grounded.
“I don’t always listen to music before I’m about to compete or surf,” she said. “But when I do, ‘The Greatest’ by Sia is on repeat. I absolutely love the words to this song. It gets me in a happy mindset — confident and ready to take on whatever I’m facing.”
For day-to-day training, Marks prefers rap.
“My go-go song when I’m training is ‘Trophies’ by Young Money and Drake,” she said. “I like more upbeat songs when I’m about to train. It’s crazy what a song can do to your mood, so for me this song gets me hyped!”
Here is her list for you but mostly for me!
The Greatest – Sia
River – Bishop Briggs
What do you Mean? – Justin Bieber
Back to the Old – Matisyahu
Bodak Yellow – Cardi B

Feel It Still – Portugal the Man
Music is so fucked these days, so I unashamedly make this stuff….https://http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8cy...
Sounds like yer just ripping off ABBA mate.
Well I’m hoping a couple of ’em can bring down the government today!
Now we’ve got a guy who apparently lists ‘Church’ as his hobby.
Awesome. Advance Australia, back to the Bronze Age…

Bodak Yellow is my favourite song on the playlist, although not my fav Cardi B song of all time (that’s Be Careful With Me). A little scene setting on Bodak. Cardi B is a stripper who has made it big in rap game. Sample lyrics: “Lill bitch, you can’t fuck with me if you wanted to…I might just chill with your boo. I might just feel on your babe, my pussy feel like a lake. He wanna swim with his face, I’m like, ‘Okay’. I’ll let him get what he want, he buy me Yves Saint Laurent.” Now enjoy this serious analysis from Genius.com. “Due to her sexual performance being so great, Cardi gets treated to Yves Saint Laurent—a French luxury fashion company. She plays on the words, “lake” and “swim.” She compares her genitals to a “lake,” due to her vaginal discharges. “Swim” alludes to “facesitting,” a sexual act in which one partner sits on or over the other’s face. Interestingly enough, she once broke a man’s nose while she was sitting on his face.”
New fan here
And this!
Pop that pussy on the pole, pop that pussy on the stove
Make that pussy slip and slide like you from the 305
Put your tongue out in the mirror, pop that pussy while you drive
Spread them asscheeks open, make that pussy crack a smile
Pussy’s are quite slippery in the 305..
the things people get paid to write for this here internet, she says
God I love this song. Her current single – with the “I Like It Like That” sample – is very good too.
Caroline stokes me out! Fuck that playlist though and fuck Chas for badmouthing the Dead Milkmen.

I was always fond of their song: ‘Protestant Colouring Book’ – “if you colour outside the lines you’ll go to hell”
Bitchin’ Camaro.
She’s already the best women’s surfer in the world imho. Jbay and then that wave at trestles this week…
“Cocaine + Surfing: A Love Story” Country Ditty Theme Song:
“If My Nose Was Running Money (I’d Blow It All On You)” by Mike Snider
Well known Hawaiian shaper once went broke putting all his money up his nose…or so the story goes.
It’s a love song. It’s snot really about cocaine. Like the book.
Going to sound like a dickish-dick here, but she has one of the ugliest backhands I’ve ever seen. Not sure what all the hype is about. I’ll watch Carissa all day.
I wasn’t a fan, initially, but…sixteen? A few seasons to smooth out the bumps and she gonna be as accomplished as Carissa, Stephanie etc.
We should thank the Poetic Perrows and the Bookish Buchans for immigrating to Australia and not to San Clemente which seems to be the favored destination of the latest wave from SA . Australian Surfers should be rooting and not rooted ,so get them off or get them dirty ! Undies that is .
including that on his cv is how he nailed the commissioner gig.
