It's summertime. And we all know what that means. Time to get in the car, roll down the windows, and blast the music. But what song will define this summer? Here is the list of candidates.

1. Despacito- by Luis Fonsi, Daddy Yankee, ft. Justin Bieber

Don't deny that the way Justin Bieber says Despacito just makes you feel some type of way.

2. I'm the One- by DJ Khaled, ft Justin Bieber, Quavo, Chance the Rapper, Lil Wayne

Justin Bieber is racking in the summer hits, but which single will prevail?

3. Stay- by Zedd and Alessia Cara

When you think of belting out a song in the car, this song comes to mind. Now we just have to see if it has what it takes.

4. Body Like A Back Road- by Sam Hunt

This country signer has pulled in all audiences with his hit song, making it a very legitimate contender.

5. It Ain't Me- by Kygo, Selena Gomez

Every person is bound to sing along when this song comes on, a factor that is very hard to beat.

6. Swalla- by Jason Derulo, Nicki Minaj, Ty Dolla $ign

Arguably, the catchiest song on this list, but can Jason Derulo's new song grab the title?

7. Sign of the Times- by Harry Styles

With over 110 million listens on Spotify, can it take the top spot?

8. Strip That Down- by Liam Payne, Quavo

There is some One Direction rivalry for this new summer song. Will Harry or Liam have the winning song? Or, do people just yearn for One Direction to get back together?

9. That's What I Like- by Bruno Mars

The perfect dance song that is sure to put you in a good mood.

Why AI-Generated Music Threatens Human 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.

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.
