Well, Cinco de Mayo still has absolutely nothing to do with “Mexican Independence Day,” but here we are again!

Regardless, being the responsible musical curator that I am, I cannot send you out into this ‘rager weekend’ without them tasty tunes! Especially since a lot of those algorithms still truly disappoint when it gets this niche.

Therefore, we have consolidated our Cinco de Mayo Playlists from over the years into one master list and have added new bangers for you to celebrate, la Batalla de Puebla. Au revoir France!
