The Summer 2017 Playlist You Absolutely Need
Videvo

As we approach our last few weeks of the semester, it's time to prepare ourselves (and our music choices) for summer. Listed below are some of the songs that I know my friends and I will be jamming to this summer, and you should too! From throwbacks, to rap, to EDM, you can't go wrong with this summer playlist:

1. "Slide" - Calvin Harris (feat. Migos and Frank Ocean)

"I might."

2. "LOYALTY." - Kendrick Lamar (feat. Rihanna)

Because anything with Rihanna is automatically fire.

3. "Run Up" - Major Lazer (feat. PARTYNEXTDOOR and Nicki Minaj)

If you're looking to dance.

4. "New York City (Dash Berlin Remix)" - The Chainsmokers

For those of you spending your summer in the 'Big Apple.'

5. "Summertime" - DJ Jazzy Jeff & The Fresh Prince

"Time to sit back and unwind..."

6. "Despacito (Remix)" - Luis Fonsi & Daddy Yankee (feat. Justin Bieber)

SPOILER: Justin Bieber sings in Spanish *heart eyes*

7."Still Got Time (Team Salut Remix)" - ZAYN & PARTYNEXTDOOR

Suchhhhh a jam.

8. "Surfin'" - Kid Cudi (feat. Pharrell Williams)

"Too busy makin' my own waves..."

9. "Biking" - Jay-Z, Frank Ocean, & Tyler the Creator

The product of putting 3 amazing artists in one song.

10. "Summer Friends" - Chance The Rapper (feat. Jeremih, Francis, and The Lights

Title says it all.

11. "Am I Wrong" - Anderson .Paak (feat. ScHoolboy Q)

This. Beat. Though.

12. "Sunshine" - POWERS

Because you need a song called "Sunshine" to listen to in the sunshine.

13. "Weekend" - Louis the Child & Icona Pop

In case you're looking for a song to scream with the windows down.

14. "Shining" - DJ Khaled (feat. Jay-Z & Beyonce)

Never disappointing when this power couple comes together.

15. "Miami" - Will Smith

A throwback to the 90's.

16. "Redbone" - Childish Gambino

Stay woke.

17. "Everyday" - A$AP Rocky (feat. Miguel and Rod Stewart)

"Drinkin' wine, feelin' fine..."

18. "Girl at Coachella" - Matoma

For all of those wishing they went to Coachella.

19. "Where the Party At" - Jagged Edge

Uh oooooohhhh.

20. "All My Love" - Major Lazer (feat. Ariana Grande)

Get me to an island for this feel good anthem.

21. "wonderful" - Travis Scott (feat. The Weeknd)

"Oh my, on a vibe, what a wonderful time..."

22. "The Party (This is How We Do It)" - Joe Stone

A classic, revamped.

23. And last but definitely not least...
The entirety of Drake's More Life album

Passionfruit, Ice Melts, Blem, Get It Together, and Portland to name a few...

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.
