Everyone enjoys new music. Many go through the same list of songs over and over — I know I tend to do that. So, I figured why not a short list of artists to check out! Here are some recommended albums from different genres to help expand your library.

The Neighbourhood

You might remember these guys from their breakout song "Sweater Weather," but this rock band has evolved their sound and made some really amazing music since their single came out in 2013. Their beach-sounding vibe is reflective of their West Coast roots, and their music is perfect for those just looking to relax and cruise to some easy tunes to listen to.

Recommended Album: "Wiped Out!"

Recommended Songs: "Cry Baby," "Daddy Issues," and "Single"

Why: It's got dreamy sound and catchy lyrics. Honestly, it's an all-around enjoyable listen.

SG Lewis

If you're looking for something new from the EDM genre, SG Lewis is someone you should definitely check out! His atmospheric sound is unmatched. He is sure to have you waiting for more music when you realize he doesn't have too much out yet. His music is calming; it fills you an indescribable joy whenever you hear his distinctive and comforting tone come on.

Recommended EP: "Dusk"

Recommended Songs: "Sunsets - Pt. 2," "Coming Up," and "Dreaming (feat. Bruno Major)"

Brothers Osborne

For some new country to listen to, I have to recommend Brothers Osborne. Their song "21 Summer" helped get me into country music. Since then, they have released their second studio album "Port Saint Joe." Their music varies from something you'd listen to while just kicking it to something you'd want to dance to with your favorite person. Not your typical country, their sound is different, really leaving you mesmerized. Grab those around you that you want to make memories with, and make sure you have some Brothers Osborne playing when you do.

Recommended Album: "Port Saint Joe"

Recommended Songs: "Pushing Up Daisies (Love Alive)," "A Little Bit Trouble," and "While You Still Can"

PARTYNEXTDOOR

Drake's collaborator and fellow Toronto native PARTYNEXTDOOR is a must if you want to listen to a good mix of Rap and R&B. With two studio albums out and three extended plays, he has a wide variety of music to choose from. His sound ranges from songs to listen to on a rainy day to songs to play with your friends on a Friday night. None of his songs sound the same — he always changes up his style for something refreshing.

Recommended EP: "PARTYNEXTDOOR"

Recommended Songs: "Break From Toronto," "Wus Good/Curious," and "Relax With Me"

Hippo Campus

Last (definitely not the least) is Hippo Campus. Their sound is different than many other artists. This indie band has a lot of songs you can drive around to but also play while jamming in the shower. They recently released their second album "Bambi," and don't look to be stopping anytime soon. Check them out if you are looking for an artist that you can get right into and stay hooked on!

Recommended Album: "Landmark"

Recommended Songs: "Vacation," "Tuesday," and "Epitaph."

Taylor Swift's Eras Tour is What I Hope Heaven Feels Like

StableDiffusion

A three-and-a-half-hour runtime. Nine Eras. Eleven outfit changes. Three surprise songs. Zero breaks. One unforgettable evening. In the past century, no other performer has put on an electric performance quite like Taylor Swift, surpassing her fans ‘wildest dreams’. It is the reason supporters keep coming back to her shows each year. Days later, I’m still in awe of the spectacle ‘Miss Americana’ puts on every few days in a new city. And, like one of Taylor’s exes, has me smiling as I reminisce about the memories of the night we spent together.

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.

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.
