Yo
Dunno if anybody feels the same as me, but personally, i think the soundtrack for GTA V is rather pathetic... It has some okay songs, but i don't think it gives off the LA feel anywhere nearly as good as San Andreas did. So, what i started to do a while ago was put together my own playlist of a whole bunch of tunes that i thought either should be in the game, or just generally give off that LA vibe.
Gonna need some help though, as i'm not a super computer so every song i have in my head doesn't jump to the front of my mind and scream "I'M SO LA!"
Throw some tracks at me that you think would fit in GTA V, bearing in mind the scene that's set by the game. It's supposed to reflect LA, and i'm talking all of LA. We all know they've got gangsters, but they've also got skaters, sunbathers, big celebs, car nuts etc etc

They did get some songs right, hence why you're seeing songs that are already in the game. And, it might seem odd, but i actually like quite a lot of music, so i've left opportunities for good Jazz, Country and Golden Oldies :PI would put anything 90s to now as current (hence why Classics doesn't say 90s). I'm hoping to get this quite full (at least 100 songs), as the GTA V soundtrack is really starting to bore me... So throw them at me! I don't want to seem like a dictator, but i will listen to the track first and decide whether i believe it should be in there or not :PHowever, in the interest of fairness, some of my choices may be questionable, so if you strongly disagree with a particular song, let me know!
The annoying thing about this, for me, is that because i want to make it authentic, there are even shitty pop songs in there that i personally don't like... But i want you(or me, or whoever listens) to feel that they're hearing the right music while driving around Los Santos and Blaine Country.
