This May, for Asian, Pacific Islander, and Desi-American (APIDA) Heritage Month, we asked our artists to share their favorite tracks. In our playlist series, In Focus, Asian American artists curated playlists of their current repeat artists & songs. Hear from Deb Never, Kaleah Lee, Jean Seizure, Eric Nam, and more on the inspiration behind their picks.
