9 Songs You Didn't Know You Needed to Listen to in July

What's a summer without a good soundtrack? Step up your playlist this July with these nine songs you didn't know you needed in your life.

1. "Dirty Taurus" by Charlie Heat & Ant Beale

With a catchy beat and fire lyrics, you can bump to Dirty Taurus is a must have for all beach trips this summer.

2. "Bad Blood" by NAO

NAO has a voice unlike anyone else I've ever heard before. Mix that with the sexy beat and you have the perfect song for night driving at 2 am.


3. "Freaky Love" by Captain Kidd

Captain Kidd is a band local to Ohio and their indie-pop sound is one that's so easy to dance to, it should be on all of your party playlists.


4. "Victoria's Veil" by Cashmere Cat

Cashmere Cat has a DJ sound so unique he worked with Kanye West on his album "The Life of Pablo." All of the songs on his newest album are great but "Victoria's Veil" has such an eclectic summer vibe it's impossible not to love.


5. "Don't Wanna Fall in Love" by KYLE

Kyle recently blew up with his single "iSpy" but he's been making hits for a couple of years now. "Don't Wanna Fall in Love" samples the original song by Jane Child with some flare from some synth it makes an old classic even better.


6. "Heebiejeebies" by Aminé ft. Kehlani

Aminé is most known for his song "Caroline" but he mellows out with this song featuring Kehlani. I don't know why but this song makes me feel so amazing so it's a must listen for all.


7. "Rage" by Vic Mensa

This song is very unlike Vic Mensa's usual woke rap, but it's slow enough to be played at a bonfire once most everyone else has left.


8. "Revenge" by Xxxtentacion

A little bit darker in the mood, this song by Xxxtentacion is also outside of his usual sound. It's too hard to explain so just give it a listen.


9. "When I Get Home" by Post Animal

Post Animal takes you back to the 1970s with this trippy and light-hearted song. The vocals are mellow and the vibes are good with this hit.

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.
