The Top 50 Tracks To Include In Your Polaris RZR Tape Deck!
Mar 20th 2023
We understand that everyone has their own music preferences, just like everyone has their own riding preferences. However, there are several commonalities amongst us Polaris RZR owners when it comes to our taste in music. That being said, you can never generalize, typecast, or stereotype an entire swath of people based on their shared interest in off-road riding. If this were a site dedicated to Can-Am owners, you could be sure that ABBA, Celine Dion, and the Spice Girls would make our list of the top 50 riding songs. But because this is a site by RZR owners, for RZR owners, we’ve got some better stuff in store for you! We can almost guarantee that you won’t love everything on our riding playlist, but rest assured that we won’t be including Kenny G, Barry Manalo, or Polka / Mariachi music. There’s a time and a place for such melodies, but that place isn’t when you’re in the cockpit of a Razor. Be it some redneck rap, death metal, and classic rock, or a bit of Motown, country, and reggae, here are the top 50 tracks to play through your sound bar, rooftop sound system, or audio setup when ripping it up in your Polaris RZR!

Alternatively, if you want something you can set and forget, there are RZR playlists on Spotify that you can download, or you can check out the Outkast Offroad playlist on either Spotify or Apple Music. And for offline tunes that don’t require cellular connectivity, the Amazon Music App is something that Prime members can take advantage of! So grab a phone mount / tablet mount, connect your device via Bluetooth to your side-by-side stereo, and let the good times roll!
