In This Article:

Benny Blanco is not a well known name... but it sure as heck will be. As an American record producer, songwriter, and multi-instrumentalist, he is well known IN the music industry. He has been behind the scenes of some major hits from artists like Maroon 5, Selena Gomez, Justin Bieber, The Weekend, Wiz Khalifa, Kanye West, Rihanna, Ed Sheehan, Cardi B, and many more. He even won the 2017 iHeartradio Producer of the Year award. But outside of producing credits or those not in tune with the inside of the music industry, he hasn't been a familiar name... until now.

He dropped his first single under his own name with Halsey & Khalid this past summer titled "Eastside." You can watch the music video below. It's actually a cute little video and I absolutely love it.

& after the success of that single, he has now dropped a seven song album featuring some popular artists including Brendon Urie of Panic! At The Disco, Calvin Harris, Ty Dolla $ign, and more! You can check it out below, and if you dig it (which you will (; ) ... you can stream the album on Spotify and Apple Music or purchase the album on iTunes or Amazon Music. You won't be disappointed! :)

Humans and robots face off in a rock band battle with guitars and drums, under dynamic lighting.

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

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.

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.
