3 New Artists You Should Listen to Right Now: 21 and Under

So I had to go on a hunt this week because I wasn't quite sure who I was going to write about because my list of new artists is slowly dwindling. To prevent this from happening, send me a new artist you think is worthy of me listening to! I listen to everything and everyone. I'd prefer if their monthly listeners on Spotify were under 500k, but if they're absolutely spectacular to the point more people need to hear them then please don't hesitate!

1. Dua Lipa













Dua Lipa is an English singer songwriter and model who's album is finally set to release in February. Her music is upbeat and sexy. Her raspy, high register makes you want to wear tight leather clothes and jump around in knee high boots. Whether or not you're into that.

I saw her live when she opened up for Troye Sivan during his "Blue Neighbourhood Tour" and I was surprised. She was cute and sassy and a very good singer. I'm sorry, that's an understatement. She's a phenomenal singer. It was only a 6 song set but she kept it up. You can tell she's new to the live concert world because her dance moves and the way she worked the stage was repetitive. But that's what develops over time. I have high hopes for her career. You probably know her for her song "Hotter Than Hell". But check her out on iTunes and Spotify!

2. Noah Cyrus

Woah, that image came out big... Anyway.

Last time I checked Noah Cyrus was getting braces and just entering high school and the voice of Ponyo, but I guess that's all behind us now and she has become the new Kylie Jenner of the Cyrus family. At only 16, she's trying to make a living for herself. She just released a new song feat. Labrinth and it's actually not too bad. With just over 9 million streams she sounds like a young Miley Cyrus, or a more developed Hannah Montana, so to speak. It's definitely worth at least giving a listen even if you're not into Miley Cyrus. Because who knows, she could be the next hit artist. With only one song out I'm kind of excited to see where her career will take her. She's lucky to have the Cyrus name and the beauty from her sister, but will she hold up to the legend?

Check her out on Spotify and iTunes.

3. Grace VanderWaal

At only 12 years old, from Kansas City, this little ukulele protege won 2016's America's Got Talent and within a year she released her first EP "Perfectly Imperfect". She may be extremely young and some of her songs aren't quite relatable to every college kid out there but this is someone's career you should watch. As she gets older and experiences the ups and downs of adolescence I'm sure her music will become comparable to Taylor Swift's lyrics. Her voice and music are tear jerkers. It's as if the emotions were leaking from her raspy, high register. She has a long way to go and I hope her career and contract with Simon Cowell and Columbia Records won't affect her music making abilities or perhaps her creative control because it's something that makes this little girl special.

When I first listened to her on the show I was swooning. I said "If this little girl doesn't at least earn a deal from being on this show I will contact her myself",

Check out her EP "Perfectly Imperfect" on Spotify and iTunes

There ya have it, folks. (I think I've said that too many times) Oh well. If you have any suggestions for new music take a gander at my contact information up top and give me a few artists you think I should write about! Or, if you're in a band or an artist who has some music out, send me a message! Also, I've made a Spotify playlist for all the artists I've written about so far. So check that out too! Good luck on finals everyone.

I've been super busy lately with school work, studying, etc. Besides the fact that I do nothing but AP chemistry and AP economics, I constantly think of stupid questions that are almost impossible to answer. So, maybe you could answer them for me, and if not then we can both wonder what the answers to these 15 questions could be.

Power of Love Letters

I don't think I say it enough...

To My Loving Boyfriend,

  • Thank you for all that you do for me
  • Thank you for working through disagreements with me
  • Thank you for always supporting me
  • I appreciate you more than words can express
  • You have helped me grow and become a better person
  • I can't wait to see where life takes us next
  • I promise to cherish every moment with you
  • Thank you for being my best friend and confidante
  • I love you and everything you do

To start off, here's something I don't say nearly enough: thank you. Thank you, thank you, thank you from the bottom of my heart. You do so much for me that I can't even put into words how much I appreciate everything you do - and have done - for me over the course of our relationship so far. While every couple has their fair share of tiffs and disagreements, thank you for getting through all of them with me and making us a better couple at the other end. With any argument, we don't just throw in the towel and say we're done, but we work towards a solution that puts us in a greater place each day. Thank you for always working with me and never giving up on us.

Ah, yes, good old Hauppauge. We are that town in the dead center of Long Island that barely anyone knows how to pronounce unless they're from the town itself or live in a nearby area. Hauppauge is home to people of all kinds. We always have new families joining the community but honestly, the majority of the town is filled with people who never leave (high school alumni) and elders who have raised their kids here. Around the town, there are some just some landmarks and places that only the people of Hauppauge will ever understand the importance or even the annoyance of.
