Every summer needs a good soundtrack, and although summer is just starting, why not get a good headstart on your jams for the summer? Check out the songs below and add them to your summer playlist!

Sour Patch Kids - Bryce Vine

The ultimate summer jam, “Sour Patch Kids” is the best song to play at any event this summer. It may be a few years old, but its terrific melody won’t be going anywhere anytime soon. Fun, relaxed, and super catchy, Sour Patch Kids will be repeating all day on your phone and in your head.


Told You So - Paramore

Coming back with a fresh, funky 80’s vibe, Paramore is packing a punch with their new album After Laughter. “Told You So” embraces the 80’s vibe in every way possible and makes you want to dance your heart out. Listen to this great jam that is sure to be playing on every radio station this summer.


Talk Too Much - COIN

I don’t anything about COIN, but “Talk Too Much” promotes energetic guitars that sparks the fun of summer. This is a great song for chill, yet fun evenings in the summer, and is a perfect song to jam out to in the car.


Kissing Strangers - DNCE

DNCE is back at it again with embracing the fun of funk. Sure to be a hit on the radio this summer, “Kissing Strangers” features a slick verse by Nicki Minaj and encourages you to get the idea of kissing strangers stuck in your head.


She Takes Me High - We The Kings

Recommended by a friend, “She Takes Me High” does a great job at capturing the atmosphere and feeling of summer. One can’t help but find pleasure in hearing a We The Kings song every once in awhile.




Young In Love - Borgeous

A great dance jam for the summer, “Young In Love” is the perfect song to have in your playlist. Plus, who doesn’t love a great love story music video every now and then?




Hands All Over You - Kalin And Myles

Although Kalin And Myles broke up back in March 2016, they still have some great songs out there that should’ve been made singles. “Hands All Over You” is the perfect example of that, and it fits the summer vibe to the tee. You can’t help but feel the energy of summer when listening to this great tune.

AI music threatens 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.

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.
