What Is Your Musical Guilty Pleasure?

Our favorite looks on the streets of Portland this week.

(Sam Gehrke)

"Hmmmm. I'd say Honne."

"I don't really have a guilty pleasure when it comes to music. I like all of my stuff and play it really loud wherever I am."

"Doomtree! Gotta rep the Midwest!"

"I'd say Sade. She's more accepted now than back when she was making music, but I still think it's odd I listen to her."

"Oh damn… Taylor Swift."

"Right now it's Scandinavian Pop/House/Rap."

"Oh, Mike Jones, for sure."
