The Ultimate Denver Playlist: Which Songs Embody Our City Best?

Is it possible to capture the feeling of life in Denver in a song? Many, many people have tried, and the results are … mixed. But there’s a new banger out this year that we think shows off the magic of the city! So we invited the rappers behind the track — “Next Stop Denver” by Nelo (Feat. Wayne Watts)  — to join host Bree Davies and Denver Post entertainment reporter John Wenzel to break down their creative process and talk about all the songs they think embody our city best. 

What did we miss? We want to hear your picks for the songs that embody Denver! Text or leave us a voicemail with your name and neighborhood, and you might hear it on the show: 720-500-5418
