5 Amazing Albums From 2017's Top Female Artists You NEED To Listen To

Every year it seems that music gets better and better. Artists are always switching up their styles, and evolving in a really cool way. From amazing collaborations to some straight up bops, 2017 was definitely a notable year for music. Of course, we have to applaud the amazing, talented, and hardworking females in this industry. Let's be real- for the most part, they're all pretty dope. Here are 5 of my favorite female albums from 2017:

1. "ANTI" - Rihanna

From Work to Desperado, all the way to Love On The Brain-this album had us feeling every type of emotion. It seems that every album Rihanna releases is better than her last. And since she's been around for so long, we really get to see how she grows as an artist.

2. "Melodrama" - Lorde

It always confused me as to why so many people disliked Lorde when she first came into the music scene. Just because she was a bit more theatrical with her performances and acted "weird" doesn't change the fact that she's an amazing artist. And with her new album Melodrama, Lorde really showed off her songwriting skills, as well as some beautiful ballads.

3. "hopeless fountain kingdom" - Halsey

Halsey is easily one of my favorite artists out there, so I was super excited about her new album. She has some pretty cool collaborations on here, with artists like Quavo and Lauren Jauregui from Fifth Harmony. Halsey recently just finished the first installment of her world tour for this album. Do ya thang girl.

4. "Ctrl" - SZA

alk about a debut album! SZA came from nothing and made her name well-known. If you love R&B, Ctrl is an album you have to listen to. Her lyrics are relatable and you just want to sing along to every song. SZA just received five Grammy nominations, including Best New Artist. Seriously, don't sleep on her.

5. "Lust For Life" - Lana Del Rey

To be honest, I have to be in a certain mood to listen to Lana. Her music has that sort of dreamy vibe to it, and sometimes it's too slow for me. But her new album Lust For Life has some good beats and I've listened to it one too many times. Summer Bummer is a personal favorite of mine on this album, but all of the songs are worth listening to.

Course registration at college can be a big hassle and is almost never talked about. Classes you want to take fill up before you get a chance to register. You might change your mind about a class you want to take and must struggle to find another class to fit in the same time period. You also have to make sure no classes clash by time. Like I said, it's a big hassle.

This semester, I was waitlisted for two classes. Most people in this situation, especially first years, freak out because they don't know what to do. Here is what you should do when this happens.

Ever since I could remember, it was a treat to receive Easter Bread made by my grandmother. We would only have it once a year and the wait was excruciating. Now that my grandmother has gotten older, she has stopped baking a lot of her recipes that require a lot of hand usage--her traditional Italian baking means no machines. So for the past few years, I have missed enjoying my Easter Bread.
