“I love these speakers. Anyone who knows me knows I carry music with me. I travel with them, I have them in my hotel rooms. I have these speakers in my makeup trailer when I'm getting into character. I listen to music that my character would listen to. It's just a gut feeling. Cape FearI listened to 50's music about love and longing, it felt very childish to me. Natural Born KillersI listened to Jimi Hendrix's “Voodoo Child,” Slight Return, and Killing Floor every day for a month and a half. That's how I felt like Mallory Knox. Yellow JacketsI had an old '90s playlist that was a lot of fun. It had everything from Jane's Addiction and Alice in Chains' “Would?” to Crystal Castles.” —May 2024

“I've had a lot of small Bluetooth speakers, but this one sounds like a big one despite its size. It sounds great, has great bass, and I always think, How does that sound come out of there?? It's so compact that I take it everywhere. I use it at home, I use it in the office. I take it on the boat, I take it on trips, I've taken it to Europe and recently to Costa Rica. My daughter steals it from me and mixes whenever she has free time. You can often hear it at full volume from her room.? —February 2023

“My friend Tony Jackson (aka Skype Williams) gave this to me. I had this stupid Bose speaker that you stick your phone to but like I said, it was stupid and I never really used it. Tony's a musician and he noticed I didn't have a portable speaker so he bought me this for my birthday. This speaker has changed my life. The sound is amazing. One little thing about it is that it bounces on both ends. It's hard to explain, but when the bass is strong, the speaker rocks to the music. It's so subtle and yet so cute. It's almost alive.” —August 2021

“I love listening to music in the shower, so I often use it in the shower because it's waterproof, or I just carry it in my bag so I can listen to music if I'm in a hotel or something. It's really nice that it's small and portable and has Bluetooth. I take it on set, I take it with me when I'm on a photo shoot, it makes everything more fun and lightens the mood. When I'm on set and I want to concentrate, I use the headphones, but when I want to get in the mood and have a little fun, I use the speakers.” —February 2020
Tituss Burgess
“Music is everything. I call musical moments my breaks in life. Sometimes I just want to nourish my ears. This little speaker is noisy “It's so small that I can take it with me when I travel. I basically take it home with me wherever I go.” —June 2018
