It's that time of the year again. School is just around the corner and the summer is coming to an end. Who's to say there can't be one more bumpin' summer playlist? This is an amazing time of the year for music because so many artists are either releasing new material as we speak or gearing up to drop albums within the next month or two (JoJo, I see you, boo). Before you start making a back-to-school playlist or some terrible "studying" mix, take the time to check out these killer tracks before you pack up for your dorm or, if you're like me, bop around to them as you pack.

1. "Make Me" by Britney Spears (feat. G-Eazy).

This song has started to get some great airtime on most radio stations but it is such a jam. And who doesn't love G-Eazy these days?

2. "Gravel To Tempo" by Hayley Kiyoko.

Kiyoko is fresh off a hit track entitled "Girls Like Girls," which is also a jam, but this one is particularly awesome. It's definitely a hit for your workout playlist as well.

3. "Closer" by the Chainsmokers (feat. Halsey).

There is a special place in my heart for both The Chainsmokers and Halsey. This popular tune has been tearing through the U.S. recently, and it is one of my favorite songs of the summer.

4. "Let Me Love You" by DJ Snake and Justin Bieber.

I will be the first to admit that I'm weary these days of Bieber's music and don't warm up to his songs immediately, but this one is sure to be a favorite for people that aren't even Bieber fans. DJ Snake (and Major Lazer) have been teaming up with different artists lately and creating some really amazing tracks.

5. "Atic" by Astrid S.

If you look on Astrid S' Twitter, there's an acoustic cover of this song that is out of this world. However, the techno version is just as amazing. and this is another great addition to that workout playlist.

6. "Stuck" by The Aces.

This girl group was completely foreign to me until I listened to this song, and I'm so glad I did. It reminds me of some light rock from a different era, but it definitely has some pop notes to it as well. I'd say this is a great car jam.

7. "Something About You" by Tayler Buono.

I'm biased because I love Buono's voice and have for a while, but this track is really beautiful and makes you want to sing it in the shower. It's an awesome summer song, but could just as easily be a great song for the school year.

8. "Dope" by Fifth Harmony.

How could a Fifth Harmony song not make this playlist?

9. "F*** Apologies" by JoJo and Wiz Khalifa.

I'm biased again because I've seen this performed live by the goddess herself, but this track is honestly so good. It's fierce, unapologetic (pun intended), great for the car and has a solid beat behind it.

10. "Colors-Audien Remix" by Halsey.

This is by far one of the best remixes for any song I've ever heard in my life. I am a huge fan of the original song by Halsey, but the DJ who mixed this new track paired the original with a great backdrop. I rarely like these remixes, so this one is definitely high on my list.

11. "Show Me Love- EDX Remix/Radio Edit" by Sam Feldt and Kimerly Anne.

One of the only other remixes that really does it for me, this song is great for a workout or just generally bopping around. It's super upbeat and has a great rhythm.

12. "New York Times" by Xavier White.

Last but certainly not least, this song is one of my favorites on the list. I'd never heard of Xavier White before, but he basically is a mixture of Post Malone and Desiigner with the lyrical genius and smooth tone of Drake. I think he's definitely an up-and-coming type of artist and this tune is awesome.
