To me, there's absolutely nothing better than a good throwback playlist. I've never seen people get as excited as they do at parties than when a great song from the 2000s comes on. The 2000s created some of the best music that our generation has gotten to experience first hand. It brought us some of the best of Britney, Rihanna, Justin Timberlake, Usher and many many more artists who are still topping the charts today.

With the help of some of my Twitter followers as well as my memory of every song that played at a middle school sleepover I had, here is the ultimate grew-up-in-the-2000s party playlist you didn't know you needed.

1. Toxic - Britney Spears

Obviously, Queen Britney's "Toxic" was going to make the list. She's going to be on here plenty of times.

2. I Kissed a Girl - Katy Perry

3. Rock Your Body - Justin Timberlake

4. Sexy Can I - Ray J featuring Yung Berg

While this song was definitely not appropriate for a bunch of sixth-grade girls to listen to, I can assure you that my friends and I listened to it at every sleepover we had ever. Sorry, mom.

5. Kiss Me Thru The Phone - Soulja Boy

6. In Da Club - 50 Cent

7. Buy U A Drank - T-Pain

8. Hollaback Girl - Gwen Stefani

I'm convinced that there is no one who cannot get hyped when they hear this song come on.

9. Yeah! - Usher

10. Unwritten - Natasha Bedingfield

11. Lip Gloss - Lil Mama

12. Since U Been Gone - Kelly Clarkson

13. Hips Don't Lie - Shakira

There's no way in hell I'm not dancing when I hear this song come on.

14. I Write Sins Not Tragedies - Panic! At The Disco

15. DON'T TRUST ME - 3OH!3

16. Down - Jay Sean

17. Fire Burning - Sean Kingston

18. Fergalicious - Fergie

19. Sk8er Boi - Avril Lavigne

20. Mr. Brightside - The Killers

Can you really have a 2000s playlist without this gem of a song?

21. Low - Flo Rida

22. I Gotta Feeling - The Black Eyed Peas

23. Replay - Iyaz


24. Just Dance - Lady Gaga

25. Gold Digger - Kanye West

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.

The Importance Of Being A Good Person

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.
