In This Article:

Taylor Swift is obviously the queen of easter eggs, and according to this Buzzfeed article, Swifties everywhere are speculating the release of "Cruel Summer" from her 2019 album "Lover" as her next single.

The date of May 8 is being thrown around for the release date, mainly because of all of the 5/8 clues fans are picking up on, and a lot of the times, Swifties are right. Some theories are absolutely outrageous, but this one seems promising.

1. "Cruel Summer" aligns with the state of our cruel summer that is about to happen. 

2. It's the perfect quarantine summer jam because it never gets old.

3. Taylor's selfie insinuates something is coming because... she doesn't post selfies...

Also, she posted it at 5:08 PM EST. Peep the 5/8 easter egg again.

4. We can never get enough of T-Swift.

5. We need the gift of a single during quarantine.

6. She's been giving back to her fans, so what better way to give us more than by releasing a single?

7. This time last year we were all speculating over the release of "Lover."

8. Swifties are rarely wrong.

9. We miss Taylor and her music.

10. After all of her Scooter Braun drama, she deserves to be hyped up again.

11. "Cruel Summer" is such a bop that it deserves to be a single.

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.

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.

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.
