From De La Soul’s “Me, Myself & I” and Black Sheep’s “The Choice Is Yours” to Pubic Enemy’s “Fight the Power” and Pharcyde’s “Passing Me By,” Pride breaks down how each song has deeply affected her.

And maybe one of the greatest feats of these pages is that by sharing and explaining her picks, she makes you want to recount and relive your own.
