Updated regularly, Ebro Darden's playlist brings the music and sounds of New York City to the world.

There’s something uniquely satisfying about a good gym workout. Not only are you using equipment you probably don’t have at home, but you’re also getting the positive social boost of being surrounded by people up to roughly the same thing. Bootcamp, HIIT, strength training—however you like to spend your time, here’s a playlist of high-impact music pulling from the worlds of hip-hop and rock to keep you company. Our editors update picks regularly, so if you hear something you like, add it to your library.

“Hey Siri, play the Tactical Gaming playlist.”

At the heart of hip-hop is the rhythm, the life force that propels the music forward no matter what. Curated by Apple Music editors and Apple Fitness+ trainers Tyrell, Kym, and Sherica, this cycling playlist of rap and R&B is calibrated to help lock you in, drive you on, and keep you out of the saddle for that extra minute or two more. Because you know you’ve got it in you—it just might take the beat to bring it out.

This week, headlining #OnRepeat—a playlist chock-full of the hottest new songs we can’t seem to stop playing—is the Doechii and SZA collab “girl, get up.” Doechii, in particular, has some things to get off her chest, not the least of which is that haters are always going to be her motivators. Listen to her and SZA walk in their power on “girl, get up” on the #OnRepeat playlist, and if you hear something you like, add it to your library.

Great rap is superhero music: Put it on and you’ll feel like you can break through walls. Along with Apple Music's editors, Apple Fitness+ trainers Bakari, Kim, Anja, and Jamie-Ray chose these hip-hop and R&B tunes to guide you through the peaks, valleys, peaks, peaks, and more peaks that make high-intensity interval training (HIIT) one of the most demanding—but rewarding—ways to work out. Because if you wanted to take it easy, you’d take a nap.

Bringing together mostly new tracks and a few recent favorites, this hip-hop playlist is designed for those turned-down times. Whether you're cooking, driving, studying, or whatever, tune in and lean back. We regularly refresh these tunes. If you hear something you like, add it to your library.
