Every year, students at Liberty experience the inevitable disappointment at homecoming where we all reflect on the horrid music that the millennial DJ the school hires thinks is popular amongst us teens. Instead of predicting the songs we think the DJ will play at homecoming, we are going to list the songs we wish would play at homecoming, because they usually end up playing all the same music anyways. 

 

Ice Spice Drops Bootylicious Video for New Song 'Deli'Deli – This masterpiece is the song of the century by the queen herself. It is very unlikely that this would ever make the cut because of its vulgar lyrics but this song never misses.
