5 Hip Hop Albums To Listen To This Upcoming Week

I know, I'm a fiend when it comes to this music business. Instead of five songs, here are five Hip Hop/Rap albums that you should listen to this week if you haven't already. There are not ranked in any particular order, so don't trip.

1. "Syre" - Jaden Smith

"Oh, Zein likes Jaden Smith, what a surprise!" Well, this s*** here bumps, so, give it a listen because I'm trying to put you on a wave before it gets too full. This album, in particular, has a very experimental vibe to it while stringing together the basis required for a rap album.

2. "Macadellic" - Mac Miller

First and foremost, Mac Miller is now slept on and people need to wake tf up. This is not an album by definition. It's technically a mixtape, however, this mixtape is straight fire. Flame emoji, flame emoji, flame emoji, wave emoji. If you enjoyed Mac Miller from 2010-2013, this is it. P.S, it's free everywhere.

3. "Thursday" - The Weeknd

"But Zein, The Weeknd is an R&B artist! What is he doing on a list like thi---" I know what I'm doing. Thursday was my favorite tape out of The Weeknd's early miniseries. Gets me in my feelings every time, but I live for it. Let's get emotional together.

4. "Liquid swords" - GZA

GZA, one member of the infamous Wu-tang Clan. This was a breakthrough solo project that carries a heavy wu-tang vibe and features many other members of the group. A must-listen for yearning enthusiasts.

5. "Capital Punishment" - Big Pun

RIP. He's probably better than your favorite modern-day rapper. Gone at 24, but a sound that rings forever. This was when hip-hop was at a different peak than it was today. This is straight fuego. Rock with it.

If I have learned one thing in my lifetime, it is that friends are a privilege. No one is required to give you their company and yet there is some sort of shared connection that keeps you together. And from that friendship, you may even find yourself lucky enough to have a few more friends, thus forming a group. Here are just a few signs that prove your current friend group is the ultimate friend group.

When it comes to television, there’s very few sets of on-screen siblings that a lot of us can relate to. Only those who have grown up with siblings knows what it feels like to fight, prank, and love a sibling. Ross and Monica Geller were definitely overbearing and overshared some things through the series of "Friends," but they captured perfectly what real siblings feel in real life. Some of their antics were funny, some were a little weird but all of them are completely relatable to brothers and sisters everywhere.

College is a great place to meet people, especially through Greek life. If you look closely at sororities, you'll quickly see there are many different types of girls you will meet.

1. The Legacy.

Her sister was a member, her mom was a member, all of her aunts were members, and her grandma was a member. She has been waiting her whole life to wear these letters and cried hysterically on bid day. Although she can act entitled at times, you can bet she is one of the most enthusiastic sisters.

Every kid in college and/or high school dreams of summer the moment they walk through the door on the first day back in September. It becomes harder and harder to focus in classes and while doing assignments as the days get closer. The winter has been lagging, the days are short and dark, and no one is quite themselves due to lack of energy and sunlight. Let's face it: life is ten times better in the summertime.
