The creation of playlists on whatever app you use has made it possible for you to switch between the two artists you like. My suggestion however, is to broaden your horizons. Listen to multiple genres. Listen to them all. Different moods are reflected by different genres and songs. So this is why you should listen to these genres:
Alternative/ Indie
Imagine you're sitting in the corner of a coffee shop. It is raining outside and you're propped up against the window. You begin to miss the person you once were; the one who didn't have to worry about a hectic job or raising your newborn or making the perfect grades or even making it through another day with the carousel of terrifying thoughts circling your brain. You have your headphones in and you listen to the calm tone and strong lyrics of your playlist. A single tear streams down your face as a slower paced song whistles in your ears. You're relieved. It's best to let this compressed feeling of pain out and the only way you feel comfortable doing so is while listening to the melodies of artists who express pain and love and sorrow.
Song suggestions:
Medicine by Daughter
Six Feet Under by Billie Eilish
Don't You Cry For Me by Cobi
About The Weather by Tom Rosenthal
Real Peach by Henry Jamison
An Act Of Kindness by Bastille
Country
It's the Fourth of July. Your wife, two young children and the people you invited from your neighborhood fill your backyard. You're on duty of cooking the perfect hamburgers while wearing some khaki shorts and the new patriotic apron your wife bought you for this afternoon's events. From the outdoor speakers blasts the upbeat songs from southern artists who believe in having a good time with those around you while drinking a cold beer and eating some home cooked food. You can't argue with that as that is exactly what you're doing. Occasionally the slower, more affectionate country songs comes on and you just have to pull your wife to the side and kiss her cheek. The biggest grin is spread across your face as you can't imagine life getting any better than the picture you're in.
Song suggestions:
Boondocks by Little Big Town
Gettin' You Home by Chris Young
What Was I Thinkin' by Dierks Bentley
Springsteen by Eric Church
I Love This Bar by Toby Keith
Parachute by Chris Stapleton
EDM
Imagine you're in a large crowd. People beside you are dripping in sweat from a high level of alcohol and a little too much jumping. You're on summer break from college and came to the concert with a group of your friends. The music is blaring to a constant beat and the heard of people around you start to jump to the rhythm. The man on the stage with a laptop, a pair of headphones and a bunch of other equipment begins to jump as well when he pushes a couple buttons and the pounding music changes, the beat goes off and you go crazy. You're bouncing your head, throwing your hands in the hair and as you turn to you right to see your best friend you think that this moment couldn't get any better.
Song suggestions:
Blackout by Pegboard Nerds
Frontlines by Zeds Dead
Cutting Shapes by Don Diablo

Hip Hop/Rap
Imagine you're on the school bus headed back home from yet another treacherous day of high school. You lean up against the cold window and plug your Beats headphones in to block out the kids screaming near you. You start to play some of your favorite artists as you bop your head back and forth. Of course you already know the lyrics to the fastest of rap songs and under your breath your recite the best part. Your mom says this music is "bad for you" and that "it's trash." But you can't but be amazed at the fact that someone was able to come up with these lyrics and say them so fast. You have your go-to songs to hype you up right before your football games and just when you start reciting the best verse, it's time to unplug. These songs are your getaway from your troubles. They help blind the bad days and you just couldn't go without it.
Song suggestions:

Mercy by Kanye West
Right Hand by Drake
Bonfire by Childish Gambino
2 Phones by Kevin Gates
No Role Modelz by J. Cole
Rock/ Alternative Rock
You're in your car on your way to run some errands. To take your mind off the endless red lights and the slow drivers in front of you, you turn on the radio. It's the rock channel and a classic song from when you were a kid comes on. You can't help but belt the lyrics out. You're alone in the car and it's your new stage. While stuck driving way below the speed limit, you have your invisible microphone in your right hand and just as the best part hits, you now become the drummer and complete your solo. You're back to feeling like the teenage self you once were and can't help but to become the whole band in the minivan you drive. This is the alone time you value when you can just scream along to the lyrics of a genre you've always loved. Like your 18-year-old self once said, "Long live Rock 'N' Roll."
Song suggestions:
Enter Sandman by Metallica
Rock And Roll All Nite by KISS
Smells Like Teen Spirit by Nirvana
We Will Rock You- Queen
Highway to Hell by ACDC
Fortunate Son by Creedence Clearwater Revival
Jazz
Imagine you're in a dimly lit lounge. You're drinking some cocktail that's way too expensive to begin with as you sit in the plush booth along the wall. You came to relax with some coworkers after a long day at the office and the small bowl of peanuts on the table screams "don't eat me." Being in here on a Thursday overwhelms you and you consider excusing yourself from the scene until the band emerges from behind the stage. A few bright lights flash and suddenly you're taken to a place of serenity. Calm, peaceful melodies are played and you no longer want to leave. Throughout the night you hear a saxophone, a piano from another man, a small drum set and the lack of lyrics. You're calm and hope to stay this way for the work day you have in just a small amount of time.
Song suggestions:
I'll Wait And Pray by John Coltrane
I Still Believe in You by Eric Reed
In A Sentimental Mood by Duke Ellington
Dedicated To You by Freddie Hubbard
Blue Skies by Art Tatum
So What by Miles Davis
So regardless of what you prefer to listen to, have a little bit of each genre to get a taste of a place it can transport you to. Personally, I have music from every genre to accommodate whatever mood I'm in and I recommend it for all. Music can help you escape from the reality you live in and that's something that everyone needs once in a while.
