    This first fashion channel on Apple Music has come to fruition after the company’s decision to sponsor the 2016 Met Gala that had its focus on amalgamation of technology and fashion. All the three playlists has been curated by Wang and are available to all Apple Music subscribers, and as per Wang, each of them serves a special purpose.

    The songs in the playlist range from R&B slow jams to hardcore rap and groovy music.

    Elaborating on the playlists, Wang says, “Chill is my go-to playlist when I get home, when I need to decompress, or when I’m having a night in.” The playlist include songs of Rihanna, Drake and Juicy J.

    Regarding Hype playlist, he says, “Hype—those songs are mostly derived from playlists that I’ve played in a party bus or en route to a festival or going out. They are songs that kick up the energy.” Adding, “Vibe is more a playlist that’s in between, with songs that have high energy and also are great classics. It’s good for having people over, drinks; it’s kind of pregame music.”

    Interestingly, Wang will be adding to the list year long and his fans can listen to the designer’s Apple Music playlists on all occasions.

    “Year-round I’m always trying to find music and define what character the season depicts, thinking about the show, the energy, and the venue, so I start collecting a playlist throughout, using it like a memory bank for songs I like,” he cues.
