Best Music of 2017 So Far

Music is huge part of everyone's life and it's always something we can look forward to on a specific date (unless you're Frank Ocean) which is super reassuring. Last year was definitely a great year for music, but this year definitely has a lot of potential as well and it's only February. Here are some of the best songs/albums of 2017 thus far.

1. After The Party- The Menzingers

This album was released less than a week ago and I'm already in love with it. My favorite songs on it so far are definitely "Tellin' Lies" and "Lookers".

2. Castle on the Hill and Shape of You- Ed Sheeran

If anyone tells you they weren't excited for some new Ed Sheeran in their life, cut them off immediately.

3. Bad and Boujee- Migos

This has been a fan favorite over the past month. The song is absolutely unavoidable. It's been featured in memes and a frequent request in frat houses everywhere.

4. Say You Won't Let Go- James Arthur

This song is a guilty pleasure. Very sappy, but sooooo catchy.

5. Scared To Be Lonely- Martin Garrix

Fresh off the press, this song has some hard hitting lyrics and a catchy tune. It is quite the bop.

6. Love is Mystical- Cold War Kids

I've always been a fan of Cold War Kids and this new song is really REALLY good.

7. Lower Than Atlantis- Dumb

I never really listened to this band until this song and I'm happy I came across it.

8. Girls Like- Yuppycult

I needed to listen to this song a few times before I decided if I liked it or not, but it is definitely growing on me.

9. Falling- Alesso

Alesso is always a hit and this new song is no different.

10. Big Picture- London Grammar

I am very very thankful that London Grammar is coming out with some new solid music!

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.
