3 Artist You Need To Listen To ASAP!
School Culture

We all love music and those who create it for us. With that being said, music is being created every single day. From artist that are often listen to (Beyoncé, Justin Bieber, Adele, etc.) to artist who aren't as known but are still climbing to the top of the charts. Once someone finds an artist they like, people tend to search for sounds that are similar to those they have already been introduced to. However, that specific sound may not be found. Certain artists, in my opinion, need to be listened to more than others. They may not be as high up on the throne as Queen B, but their sound and their lyrics are still pretty d*mn good and need to be recognized/appreciated more. So, here is a list of three artist I believe everyone should listen to at least once. And if you get hooked on them after listening to a couple of their songs, then I did my job.

1. Witt Lowry

I came across Witt one day while on YouTube bouncing from channel to channel. Real name Mark Richard, Jr. is someone I would not leave unheard. His rhymes convey quick and clever phrases while at the heart of his lyrics sends out a deep message if you listen close enough. With his powerful rhymes, Witt aims to spread hope and love to his fans. This man is known to work on a song until he believes that it is perfect enough for his audience. Witt prefers to create quality over quantity and because of this dedication for the perfection of his music is the exact reason why he has seen a large amount of growth in his music in such a short period time.This also explains why fans, including myself, stand so strongly behind him and his music. Some of my favorite songs from this artist include "Kindest Regards," "Move on," "Like I do" and "Running from Here."

2. Sammy Adams

Whether it is a night on the town,or a night with that includes a few cases of brew and buddies this Boston rapper has the music your looking for. Samuel Adams Winser has been involved with music for most of his life. He aspired to become a producer before becoming a rapper and didn't start making music formally until college. Adams stated that he does not just get his inspiration just from other rappers, but from other genres of music as well including classic rock, rock and even the blues. Adams prides himself in being able to cross genres, allowing him to get back to his roots, and his music shows that. Rising off of fame from his hit songs such as "I Hate College (remix)" and "Driving Me Crazy," Adams has still been able to keep that original sound and develop it even more. Songs such as "All Night Longer" shows that Sammy knows how to have a good time, while songs such as "Remember" and "Waste" show that his lyrics have a deeper message. He is an artist you should definitely listen to and if you have the chance go see him live in "The Long Way Tour" this fall. I know I am. Some of my favorite songs from this artist include "Waste," "Awesome," "Remember" and "War."

3. Marc E Bassy

Let me tell you something: this man has soul behind his voice. Marc Griffin, also known as Marc E Bassy gives me a Robin Thicke vibe mixed with Bryson Tiller. This San Francisco singer/songwriter was originally the lead singer of a band called "2AM Club" but the band was dropped by its label Sony/ATV and went on an indefinite hiatus starting June 29, 2015. From the band dropping to his long-term relationship relationship with his girlfriend ending, this inspired Bassy to find strength and coping with everything going on by leaving the party scene and going through a period to focus on nothing but himself. Shortly after he needed to feed his need to create...so he did, leading to his album "East Hollywood." Depending on what song you listen to, you can either go from vibing out in your car to his ecstatic beats and smooth yet deep lyrics from songs like "Dirty Water" and "Drunk & I'm Drunk" to songs that have more of a deep and emotional sensation such as "Show Me ft. G-Eazy" and "Subway Car." You probably have heard Bassy on G Eazy's song "Some Kind of Drug" but I highly recommend that you take a moment and seriously listen to this artist, he is climbing up the charts quickly and for good reason. I cant say I have a favorite song from this artist simply because he makes it hard to obsess over just one of his song. Props to you Marc.

Nobody deserves to be living in poverty.

Raising the minimum wage to a livable wage would not only benefit workers and their families, it would also have positive impacts on the economy and society. Studies have shown that by increasing the minimum wage, poverty and inequality can be reduced by enabling workers to meet their basic needs and reducing income disparities.

I come from a low-income family. A family, like many others in the United States, which has lived paycheck to paycheck. My family and other families in my community have been trying to make ends meet by living on the minimum wage. We are proof that it doesn't work.

April Ludgate

Every college student knows and understands the struggle of forcing themselves to continue to care about school. Between the piles of homework, the hours of studying and the painfully long lectures, the desire to dropout is something that is constantly weighing on each and every one of us, but the glimmer of hope at the end of the tunnel helps to keep us motivated. While we are somehow managing to stay enrolled and (semi) alert, that does not mean that our inner-demons aren't telling us otherwise, and who is better to explain inner-demons than the beloved April Ludgate herself? Because of her dark-spirit and lack of filter, April has successfully been able to describe the emotional roller-coaster that is college on at least 13 different occasions and here they are.
