Recently, I’ve been in a bit of an emotional slump, and when I'm feeling down, I always turn to music. We all feel down at times, so here I’ve narrowed it down to my top 10 songs I’ve been listening to that have been making me feel better in hopes you listen to them and feel uplifted. Enjoy!

10. I Feel It Coming - The Weeknd (feat. Daft Punk)


“You’ve been scared of love and what it did to you

You don’t have to run, I know what you’ve been through

Just a simple touch and it can set you free

We don’t have to rush when you’re alone with me”

9. Cruel - Snakehips (feat. ZAYN)


“It’s such a cruel world

Savin’ all my love for you, girl

It’s such a cruel world

Maybe I found somethin’ good, girl”

8. You Da One - Rihanna


“You the one that I dream about all day

You the one that I think about always

You are the one so I make sure I behave

My love is your love, your love is my love”

7. Be The One - Dua Lipa


“Oh baby come on, let me get to know you

Just another chance so that I can show

That I won’t let you down, oh no

No, I won’t let you down, oh no

Cause I could be the one”

6. Undercover - Kehlani


“Baby, they don’t wanna see me be happy

‘Cause they ain’t happy, no—they don’t got you

Somethin’ bout the way we be acting

Babe, we are magical”

5. Be Alright - Kehlani


“Someone once told me

Babe, when the tide gets high, you just get low

Hold your breath and take it slow

Yes I might get wet, I might get thrown

But I’ll resurface all on my own

I’ll be alright, be alright”

4. Heatstroke - Calvin Harris (feat. Young Thug, Pharrell Williams, and Ariana Grande)


“When you do things like this

And you set me free

How can anyone get tired?

When you do things like this

And you set me free

I think I’ve just been inspired”

3. Let’s Go - Khalid


“Leave your sorrow on the table

Pick up your worries and throw them out the window

You don’t gotta let your friends know

There’s so much trouble to get into”

2. Valerie - Amy Winehouse


“Since I’ve come on home

Well my body’s been a mess

And I’ve missed your ginger hair

And the way you like to dress

Won’t you come on over

Stop making a fool out of me

Why don’t you come on over, Valerie?

1. Crooked Smile - J. Cole (feat. TLC)


“You were the one that was tryna keep me way down

But like the sun, know you know I find my way back ‘round”

AI music threatens creativity

In an age where artificial intelligence can mimic the voice of Freddie Mercury or reimagine pop hits as synthwave ballads, a new frontier has emerged — one that blurs the line between innovation and erosion. While AI offers undeniable benefits in technical domains, its intrusion into creative arts, especially music, raises urgent questions. Not just about copyright, but about culture, education, and the very soul of artistic expression.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

Why Your Astrological Sign May Not Match Your Personality

We are all more than just one sign.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

An open letter to the good-hearted people.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
