Don't Sleep On Mark Ronson

Have you listened to any of his other songs besides Uptown Funk?

Don't Sleep On Mark Ronson

You may not know who Mark Ronson is, but you've jammed to his music. I can guarantee that. He is responsible for the master album that contained Uptown Funk. That album is straight fire but no one really listened to it. Its funny because it sounds like a one hit wonder situation, you know one song goes big but none of the others do and presumably they're all trash. Well, I'm here to tell you that they are not, they bang. Dude, this album was positively received by most critics and also got an A- from the A.V. Club, saying that the album is "pop-friendly, and undeniably sexy collection of funk and R&B", and praised the tracks "Summer Breaking", "Daffodils", "Feel Right", "I Can’t Lose" "Crack In The Pearl", and "Heavy And Rolling". What's awesome about the album is that it's Mark's 4th studio album and he dedicated it to Amy Winehouse. It's called Uptown Special and it totally reminds me of the 80's, not necessarily 80's music but it mostly feels like it would be perfect to use as the score for a movie about the 80's. The album is an extremely talented producer just doing his thing, and the story behind the album is just as awesome, its supposed to represent all these different parts of America, so Ronson took a road trip all across America, and the artists he found singing in bars and local dives, he put them on the album. It is all different, and just good music. It's a good album to look back on and revisit all of those songs that you avoided just to listen to Uptown Funk. And yes, Uptown Funk frickin' bumps. It's a great song, but you really need to check out the other songs if you want to get a full scope of his album. So stop sleeping on Mark Ronson. He's a super talented producer that no one really talks about. Also, does anyone know what happened to Macklemore??

PS. Stevie Wonder is on the album. Oh you didn't know that? Yeah, go check it out right now. Oh and if you're too lazy to actually go buy the album, I found the whole thing on YouTube and pasted it for you below.

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.
