People's guilty pleasure "Scandal," which airs on ABC, has unapologetically taken its viewers on an emotional rollercoaster. Olivia Pope and the sizzling cast have navigated through complex drama and action leaving our hearts pumping while dragging us to the edge of our seats. We can't get enough! It feels like we can almost touch, feel, hear and taste it.
"Scandal" seems to have a specific feel, so Singersroom decided to create our very own soundtrack to some of our favorite moments from the past season.
Familiar names like Ciara, Alicia Keys, John Legend and Katy Perry are some of the artists that have just the right sound for the highs and lows of "Scandal". Names that may be not so familiar such as Love Dominique, Jhene Aiko and Algebra are artists that we have added to give us some new flavor.
