| As promised, it's Jayme Deerwester back with our Super Bowl bonus edition. I've curated choose-your-own-musical adventure playlists with the help of Who Dey Nation honorary citizen Brett Molina and our managing editor, Michelle Maltais, who's repping for all the L.A. fans. (And if you read the Daily Money regularly, you know where my allegiance lies.) |
🐏 Los Angeles Rams hype tunes 🐏 |
| Do you back the blue and gold, Odell Beckham Jr. and Matthew Stafford? Then your playlist is waiting for you behind Door No. 1. We've got songs from native L.A. acts like the Red Hot Chili Peppers, the Go-Go's, the Eagles, Montell Jordan and Concrete Blonde as well as outsiders' odes to the Golden State, like LL Cool J's classic "Goin' Back to Cali." |
| And of course, the West Coast rap scene is well-represented by pioneers like Dr. Dre, Ice Cube, Snoop Dogg, Warren G, Kendrick Lamar and the late Nipsey Hussle. And there's even a nod to the Rams' former home in St. Louis via Nelly. |
🐯 Cincinnati Bengals bangers 🐯 |
| Behind Door No. 2 lurks a playlist for all you long-suffering Bengals fans. And that's no hyperbole. The town's literally been waiting an entire generation – 31 years, to be exact – for this moment. |
| There are classics like GNR's "Welcome to the Jungle," which date back to the last time the Bengals got this far as well. And there are tracks from Ohio-bred artists – and yes, Dave Grohl counts because although he grew up in D.C., he was actually born in Dayton. |
| And of course, we've also got a shoutout to the LSU alumni who've helped make 2022 the Year of the Tiger. Speaking of which, we've got tracks from the personal playlists of Joe Burrow and Ja'Marr Chase – and the soundtrack for #1's Griddy touchdown dance. |
| Rivalries and trash talk aside, one thing that's been really heartening about the 2021-2022 season has been the kindness and camaraderie the teams, fans and cities have shown each other. It would make Ted Lasso proud. Let's hope this trend continues for seasons to come. |
