Afrojack Serves Up Some Serious Thanksgiving Jams: [Playlist]

Looking for some tunes to score Thursday’s imminent gluttony? Well, lucky for you, MTV News has a list of Thanksgiving jams hand-picked by a mix-making pro: EDM superstar Afrojack.

The Dutch DJ/producer already proved his curating chops when he gave us a personal tour of his homebase of Amsterdam before the 2013 MTV EMA, so — despite not hailing from a country where Thanksgiving is actually celebrated — we’ll totally hand the reigns of our celebration over to this dude.
