Hip-Hop Songs Dads Will Love
Here's a bitter pill for all the dads out there, hip-hop is far less kind to poppas than mommas. I had to scrape through all the corners of earth to find just a handful of the fatherhood equivalent of our Mother's Day playlist. Enjoy these 10 poignant father-child hip-hop anthems. Happy Father's Day.
| Fathers Day Oldies Playlist
Fathers are a more problematic subject for oldies music than mothers, namely because dads sometimes leave the family behind and mothers almost never do. Yet the search for father figures continues regardless, and the music of the 50s, 60s, and 70s produced plenty of country, pop, R&B and rock hits about the role, good and bad, that fathers can play in their children's lives.
| Top Country Songs For Fathers
There are no shortage of songs about mama in country music, but what about dads? Father's Day may get short shrift in advertising budgets, but dads don't get forgotten by country music's shining stars. All the evidence you need is this lineup of superb country songs for fathers.
| Christian Songs For Fathers Day
72 countries worldwide celebrate dads on June's third Sunday with 53 other countries celebrating the day at other times of the year. While God is our Heavenly Father, He has given us earthly dads to love, cherish, protect and teach us. These songs help say "Thank You" for those gifts.
