8 Artists That Deserve More Spotlight

I've always preferred music over television. I rarely ever turn on the TV, however I always have music playing. My go-to is Pandora or Soundcloud, and over the years this is where I find new artists and songs. Below are a few artists I started following because I heard one good song online, and now I'm hooked.

1. Gnash

You've probably heard his collab with Olivia O'Brien, I Hate You I Love You. If you liked that, you should definitely check out his other stuff. He's also on tour right now, so snag tickets while you can https://www.gnash.ushere.


2. Blackbear

You know when you hear a song you've never listened to before, but the lyrics truly speak to the situation you are currently in? Yeah, that's Blackbear. I first heard idfc right when I needed to.

3. Pouya

I have been following him on Snapchat, before it got hacked, and Twitter and I fell in love with his personality first. He is very real, and every video from his shows seem so fun.


4. Jon Bellion

I heard Maybe IDK and absolutely fell in love with every lyric of the song. After hearing that I dug deeper and to this day I still have not found one bad song by him.


5. Kodaline

I have always loved this band. Their sound is the type I put on while it's raining and I'm lying in bed avoiding responsibilities, and wanting to take a nap.


6. Sleeping At Last

Being a dancer, I have heard so much from them. Their songs have so much emotion behind them, even when not watching a performance. Listening to Sleeping At Last with headphones in will have you feeling some type of way.

7. Kasey Musgraves

All of you country music hating kids need to simmer down and listen to Kasey Musgraves. This girl is so raw and so real and so simple. She is so sweet and innocent, how can you not like her and what she stands for?

8. PARTYNEXTDOOR

This guy got some fame when his video for Come and See Me came out starring Kylie Jenner. His sound releases a very chill vibe.

I think the hardest thing about going away to college is figuring out how to become an adult. Leaving a household where your parents took care of literally everything (thanks, Mom!) and suddenly becoming your own boss is overwhelming. I feel like I'm doing a pretty good job of being a grown-up, but once in awhile I do something that really makes me feel like I'm #adulting. Twenty-somethings know what I'm talking about.

I went to a small high school, like 120-people-in-my-graduating-class small. It definitely had some good and some bad, and if you also went to a small high school, I’m sure you’ll relate to the things that I went through.

1. If something happens, everyone knows about it

Who hooked up with whom at the party? Yeah, heard about that an hour after it happened. You failed a test? Sorry, saw on Twitter last period. Facebook fight or, God forbid, real fight? It was on half the class’ Snapchat story half an hour ago. No matter what you do, someone will know about it.

Chandler Bing

I'm assuming that we've all heard of the hit 90's TV series, Friends, right? Who hasn't? Admittedly, I had pretty low expectations when I first started binge watching the show on Netflix, but I quickly became addicted.

Without a doubt, Chandler Bing is the most relatable character, and there isn't an episode where I don't find myself thinking, Yup, Iam definitely the Chandler of my friend group.

Working with the public can be a job, in and of itself. Some people are just plain rude for no reason. But regardless of how your day is going, always having to be in the best of moods, or at least act like it... right?

1. When a customer wants to return a product, hands you the receipt, where is printed "ALL SALES ARE FINAL" in all caps.

2. Just because you might be having a bad day, and you're in a crappy mood, doesn't make it okay for you to yell at me or be rude to me. I'm a person with feelings, just like you.

3. People refusing to be put on hold when a customer is standing right in front of you. Oh, how I wish I could just hang up on you!
