9 Amazing Female Artists You've Never Heard Of
Sky Ferreira

Marina & The Diamonds

"Savages"

"Lies"

"Can't Pin Me Down"

This Welsh alternative/indie pop star came to America long ago, playing shows and festivals like Coachella and Lollapalooza. It's hard to choose the better lyricist between her and Lana. All three of her albums feature her unique vibe, The Family Jewels (2010), Electra Heart(2012), and Froot (2015), while each one offers a sound progressively different from the last yet just as enticing.


Sky Ferreira

"I Blame Myself"

"Night Time, My Time"

"I Will"

Self-made badass model-and-actress-turned-singer/songwriter Sky Ferreira has been in the public eye since she was just fourteen years old. She dropped out of school, left her family behind and forged herself a career in entertainment when she signed her first contract with Parlophone Records in 2009. She has experimented with several genres of music, predominantly dance pop, indie rock, synth pop, and new wave. She is likely best known for opening Miley Cyrus's Bangerz tour and for her long-time modeling work with IMG Models.


Ellis Clare

@edgyellis


Ellis Clare, better known by her Instagram moniker "edgyellis", is one of New York's hottest rookie models. Her career was launched just a little over a year ago when she started modeling with ShopJeen, and since then she's garnered 40k Instagram followers.


Lana Del Rey

"Lolita"

"Brooklyn Baby"

"Gods & Monsters"


You may have heard some of her stuff, but the Summertime Sadness pop remix doesn't count. She's won over nine awards for her music since 2012, though the charts don't accurately measure her talent. With more than seven million albums and twelve million singles sold worldwide, and over 6.5 million listeners on Spotify, she leads the alternative scene.


Inka Williams

@inkawilliams


A mere sixteen years old, this Bali native has already taken the modeling world by storm. Though petite and only 5'5", she's had lots of success in countless swimsuit campaigns, in addition to her work for fashion brands like UNIF, Supre and Volcom.


Melanie Martinez

"Pity Party"

"Soap"

"Cry Baby"

This one-of-a-kind pop singer is just beginning to make it to mainstream music, though if you take a look at her full albums, you'll see just how special and offbeat her style really is.


Charlotte Free

Just because you haven't heard of her doesn't mean you haven't seen her. Though only 5'7", Charlotte is a veteran supermodel, from Vogue to Harper's Bazaar to Maybelline New York. She's famous for her angelic-punk aesthetic and fiery style.


Osha Waiters

@oshawaiters

Osha is a model and fashion photographer based in New York and the UK. Her chic looks and bold style aren't the only things that make her a top competitor - her charming personality along with her skills and experience in the fashion industry make her a promising artist.


Jazzeppi Zanaughtti

@poshsplice

Currently exploding on social media due to her recent work with Dolls Kill, this NY model's Instagram bio says it best: "just another messy drag queen she-it-hoe". This it-girl can be recognized by her trademark bleach-blond buzzcut, invisible brows, bewitching aura, and her signature safety-pin septum jewelry.

Today I started my third week of college at Minnesota State Moorhead. I have survived welcome week, finding my classes on the first day, and being an awkward loner in the dining hall. Even though I have yet to be here for a month, I have already experienced many thoughts and problems that only a new college student can relate to.

"Make sure to get involved when you're in college!"

We've all heard some variation of this phrase, whether it came from parents, other family members, friends, RAs, or college-related articles. And, like many clichés, it's true for the most part. Getting involved during your college years can help you make friends, build your resume, and feel connected to your campus. However, these commitments can get stressful if you're dealing with personal issues, need to work, or aren't sure how to balance classes and everything else going on during the semester.

In college, one of the essential things to have is friends. Yes, textbooks, a laptop, and other school supplies are important but friends are essential. Friends are that support system everybody needs. The more friends you have the better the support system you have. But you also have someone to share experiences with. And don’t settle for just one or two friends because 8 out of 10 times they are busy and you are studying all alone. Or they have other friend groups that do not include you. Don’t settle for just one or two friends; make as many friends as you can. After the first couple of weeks of college, most friend groups are set and you may be without friends.

For a moment your world is spinning. The phone alarm has just scared you awake and you’re flooded by daunting thoughts of the day ahead. You have three assignments due and little time to work on them because of your job. You’re running late because you’ve hit snooze one to many times after yesterday’s long hours. You dizzily reach for a hoodie, craving its comfort, and rush for a speedy exit, praying you will have time to pick up coffee. Does this sound familiar?

Finals week is upon us. It is a magical time of year during which college students everywhere flock to the library in attempt to learn a semester's worth of knowledge in only a week. For some students, it's their first time in the library all semester, maybe ever. Others have slaved away many nights under the fluorescent lights, and are slightly annoyed to find their study space being invaded by amateurs. While these newbies wander aimlessly around the first floor, hopelessly trying to find a table, the OGs of the library are already on the third floor long tables deep into their studies. Here is a few signs that you may live in the library, whether you'd like to admit it or not.
