FINNEAS: 23 & Changing The World

5 Grammy Nominations. Multi-Instrumentalist. Singer-Songwriter. Bad Ass.

Those are all words that I would personally use to describe FINNEAS. This 23-year-old has smashed goals that some musicians only dream of achieving.

If you didn't know FINNEAS is Billie Eilish's older brother. I bet you also didn't know that he produced and co-wrote her entire last album. (He also wrote "Ocean Eyes" which launched her to stardom). This ultra-talented family has truly been backed by this lyrical genius. Don't get it twisted though, Billie and FINNEAS have two totally different sounds and personas while also being incredibly talented in their own ways.

FINNEAS has topped the Billboard 100, dabbled in acting (you may remember him from Glee), and written a #1 hit for Selena Gomez. Like I said before- Bad Ass.

During this crazy year, and his immense amount of success last year, he is finally starting to put out his own music. FINNEAS released his first single of 2020- "What They'll Say About Us"- after writing it at the end of June. In a statement with Rolling Stones, FINNEAS addressed the purpose of this song and how it was meant to provide solace to those losing loved ones during this pandemic and fighting the racially unequal system. With that being said, go watch the video and see how hard it hits you now.

His newest album was also just released and is sure to have some buzz being generated very soon as it begins its ascent to the top of the charts. But I'll leave that for another article. So until then, stay home, stay safe, and jam out to some FINNEAS.

The Soul of Sound: How AI Challenges Human Expression in Music

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.
