Finals are almost here and there’s no better rapper than Hoodie Allen to get you through the grind. Yeah, his songs are about love/relationships, but the singer has a degree from UPenn and he landed a role at Google before he went on world tours, so I can’t help but relate Hoodie’s words to the long hours I am about to spend studying for finals.

In honor of just seeing the man in concert at my favorite venue, here are the top 12 songs you’re going to want on repeat this finals season:

1. No Interruption

“I got a fake ID and a checklist

It goes never meet a girl on Craigslist

And never spend your money on a necklace

3 square meals, homie gotta have breakfast”

Finals haven’t started quite yet. Go have fun, but make sure you are home at midnight, that you stopped three shots in, and that you will make it to your 9:00 a.m. after cooking yourself an omelet. HA.

Oh also, when you make it to your 9:00 am actually pay attention; you won’t be needing going out clothes until finals are over.

2. Intro to Anxiety

“Sometimes I let my ego get the best of me

Sometimes I wonder why my stress is stressing me

Sometimes I lay awake and I can't go to sleep

This is my introduction to anxiety”

No matter what he sings, he sings the truth. Seriously, when CAPS is closed on Sunday and you’re on hour eleven at the Ugli because you realized your first exam is tomorrow, play this and know that you’re not alone.

3. 25th hour

“My life is full of action, dramatic, but not a movie

These bitches want me, want me, want me like they want Ruby Rose”

LOL, it’s my GroupMe messages. Seriously, every time I check my phone it’s only GroupMe notifications. You feel?

4. Runnin’ Circles

“So, I skipped that Gym Membership only time I’m flexing it is when I’m working my penmanship”

Thanks Hoodie for helping me justify not going to the gym. I’m working hard writing my three essays, DEFINITELY NOT procrastinating!

5. Too Invested

“All I know is everything is gonna fly away eventually

And I’m trying to find the words to say”

Exams, Exams, Essays, Exams, please go away fast.

6. Cake Boy

“Listen when I speak, baby you could write a novel”

Surround yourself with supporters. It will all be over soon.

7. Know it all

“Some people think they know it all, but I spend all my days trying to improve”

If you know it all, I hate you, but also please tutor me. Any tax accountants here?

8. All for Me

“Take it slow, throw your clothes on the floor.”

This must be about the fact that when I get back from the library at 1:00 a.m. exhausted, I need to take off my parka, three layers of shirts/sweatshirts, jeans, the leggings under my jeans, and two pairs of socks. Right? I mean it is freaking freezing!

9. Ain’t Ready

“‘Cause I’m a little bit drunk and a little bit high But I meant what I said when I said goodbye”

Exams are over! Time to forget!

10. Mad

“When I think about all the time I wasted with you that make me mad, mad mad”

Oh wait, I can’t forget. I mean I have forgotten what I learned in half of my classes, but I will never forget the amount of hours I cried/studied.

11. Eighteen Cool

“Middle finger to the dudes back in high school.‘Cause you peaked at 18 cool”

Hey, look! I’ve done something with my life! Blast this when you’re on your way back to your hometown because yep, middle finger to the dudes back in high school.

12. Act my Age

My friends grew up, they never get drunk

They never wanna hang out late

They're gonna get jobs, they're gonna pay bills

They're gonna get old and gray

Okay, a bit depressing, and OOPS I happen to be on this path. But seeing Hoodie and having listened to Hoodie since All American, he gives me the motivation to enjoy life and make the most of these next 200 days until employment.
